What else can I help you with?
When shelving nonfiction books using the Dewey Decimal system if there are 2 or more books with same number do you shelve alphabetically by authors last name or title?
The short answer is: that's not supposed to happen. It's what "Cutter numbers" are for.
What are the reading materials found in the library?
There are a few different types of libraries. There is the private collector's library, where the private collector may be an individual or a private business or institution; public libraries which are accessible by the public and usually funded by tax money and ran by public servants; school/college/university libraries which provide access to resources for students, staff and possibly parents of students of the educational institution, and sometimes allow access by the public; state and national libraries which are usually not accessible by the public, and serve as a repository of published works within that state or nation; research libraries which hold indepth information on certain subjects; reference libraries where resources must be used at the library and are not lent out; and digital libraries which are accessible by computer, and may fit within one of the other three classifications.Libraries may contain books, dvd's, cd's, video tapes, video games, board games, ebooks, magazines, newspapers, microfilm/microfiche, prints, maps, documents, audio books, other forms of digital media. This is not a complete list but covers most formats of information that libraries may contain.Referring to the most general library type, the public library, reading materials in hard copy are broken down into sections for magazines, newspapers, and books. Books are broken down into categories of fiction and non-fiction. Some classifications of fiction include children's books, books for teenagers, drama, mysteries, comedy, etc. Non-fiction books are broken down into categories such as history, geography, culture, medicine, etc, which may then be broken down further into more specific categories such as World War II, African culture, psychiatry, Australia, etc. Many public libraries may have a reference section, or reference library, in which the public may access certain books but not remove them from the library.
What is medieval library?
One Answer:The only libraries that existed were kept by monks. They collected books and also wrote books, but the general population couldn't read nor would they have used a library.A Different Answer:The most important library of the Middle Ages was the Library of Constantinople, which had been founded during the 4th century by Emperor Constantius II, who reigned from 337 to 361, and it continued operation until it was mostly destroyed in 1204 by crusaders. This library was state run. It was associated with an important scriptorium, where books were copied, and was intended, at least partly, as a place where books were preserved for copying. Since it was in the same city as the University of Constantinople, which opened in the year 425, it doubtless served that institution and its students as well.Most monasteries had libraries, and copying the books was both an important work for monks and an important source of income for monasteries. Bibles were the books most commonly produced, primarily to be sold to churches, but the monasteries also copied a large number of other books, including secular books.Monastic libraries also loaned books. In 1212, the Council of Paris issued a condemnation of any monasteries that failed to loan books because this was one of the most important acts of charity they could provide.I see records of libraries that rented books out, but without any reference to the nature of the organization or person doing this. Since the records relate to books rented in cities where there were state run universities, I would assume that the renting libraries could have been commercial or private.There was an active book trade copying and selling literature that might have included books never copied in monasteries, and these may have had libraries associated with them. Some of these shops might even have lent or rented books. The artist, Anastasia, worked for such trade, as did an unknown number of others. Christine de Pizan, the famous author, is also thought to have worked in such a shop as a copyist. Later, she had her own copyists working for her, though in her case, the books that were copied may all have been books she wrote.Educated people, who might have been members of the royalty, nobility, or wealthy middle class, sometimes had their own libraries. I see prices of books at a rate about equal to a year's wages for a working man, 200 pence or so, so I would assume that the library of a wealthy man would have been very small by modern standards.(Other important libraries may have existed in the Middle Ages, but not for a long time. The Vatican Library was established during the Middle Ages, but was not unified until 1448, when Pope Nicholas V collected the various books together from various places, including both Rome and Avignon. And the Alexandrine Library may have existed during the Middle Ages for a time. Some early sources say it was destroyed by a mob of fanatic Christians in the 4th century, but various Arab sources say it was destroyed by Muslims in the 7th century.)There are links below.

Why do you need Libraries?
We need libraries to find information,study,read,and do text logs.In most libraries there are computers for you to use. We need librarys so we can kkeeep records of our accomplishments and so we have information close by. I know we have the internet but the library can hold things that computers can't books(who knows Queen Elizibeth the Third might have read the exact same book your reading now), artifacts,ex. What I'm trying to say is that librarys have things, computers just have chips that can look up information for you or a picture. But a library could have what you're looking for. Also librarys are portals as I think they have books that take you to a whole other world full of adventure mand fantacy computers don't have that magic. THAT'S WHY WE NEED LIBRARYS!!:)
Do libraries often carry out-of-print books?
Yes, as most books are out of print at any given time. Larger public libraries and all academic and scientific libraries have many older books. The same applies to specialist libraries.

Is the current classification system for library use still the Dewey Decimal System?
I wanted to visit a public library during my recent visit to Japan; hence, when we found one, we dropped in for a quick visit. In examining a few books, I noticed that Japanese books begin at the back and work toward the front. Modern books are printed left to right in rows on a page [due to the invention of the typewriter]; older books are printed in vertical columns. The front cover of books is the “back cover” in our system. Then I noticed that books are cataloged with numbers from 000 to 999. This immediately triggered the possibility that the Dewey Decimal System was being used. I asked a reference librarian about this possibility. She did a two-minute internet search and confirmed my suspicion. In 1956, Japanese librarians modified the Dewey Decimal System used in US libraries since 1905. It became known as the Nippon Decimal Classification. Bingo! Another spinoff of the fact that the reconstruction of Japan following WWII was under the direction of the US Occupational Forces under General MacArthur. In the USA, public libraries have used the Dewey Decimal System [DDS] since 1905. There are significant ambiguities in the DDS and a given book can be catalogued differently in various libraries. Hence, academic libraries have preferred to adopt the Library of Congress System because it allows every book to have the same call numbers everywhere that it is used.
What word do you use when all numbers in the date are the same?

How many library books are there in the world?
It is extremely difficult to know exactly how many library books there are in the world. This is because:The exact number of libraries in the world is unknown. [And, besides, which libraries should be included? There are different types, including public, academic, research, corporate, government, and private collections, to name just a few. As well, is there a minimum collection size required in order for a library's collection to be included in the count? ]Not all libraries have accurate records regarding their collection size.Not all libraries share this information.Library collections are constantly being developed; libraries regularly add titles to their collections, as well as purge damaged/outdated/unpopular titles).Libraries often carry multiple copies of the same book; should these copies be counted as a group or individually?The advent of e-books further complicates the calculation: are these to be included in the count?
What do you call two numbers that have the same gcf of 1?
They are called relatively prime, or co-prime.
