The Bibliothecal Bibliographic Klassification (BBK) in Short Note
The Bibliothecal Bibliographic Klassification (BBK)
Also known as LBC, is a classification system designed for the Lenin State Library in Moscow. It was published in 30 volumes between 1960 and 1968, with abridged versions available for medium and small libraries. The system has different versions for printed books, electronic documents, and OPACs. It consists of 21 main classes represented by 28 capital Cyrillic alphabets, and each class is assigned alternative decimal numbers since 1977.

Rider’s International Classification short Note
Fremont A. Rider, an American librarian known for his advocacy of microforms in libraries, developed a general scheme called the "International Classification." Published in 1961, it aimed to arrange books in general libraries. The scheme consisted of 26 main classes represented by Roman capitals. The main classes are as follows:
A Generalia
B Philosophy and Psychology
C/I History and Geography
J/N Social Sciences
O Business & Industry
P Military Science
Q/S Physical Sciences and Technology
T/V Biology/Medicine/Agriculture
W Fine Arts / Music
X/Z Language and Literature
Each main class was further divided alphabetically up to three letters, resulting in a total of 17,576 class numbers. Rider stated that his scheme, being broader in scope, would not undergo revision, as broader schemes require less frequent revisions. However, the International Classification scheme did not gain traction and was never implemented or widely recognized. It was considered an experimental system that never found practical use and was eventually forgotten by textbook writers. The scheme's broad arrangement places social sciences, science and technology, and humanities in that order, without adhering to any specific order of classes. It did not align with the prevailing trends of faceted systems and lacked the depth classification needed to accommodate the rapidly expanding knowledge of the time.
The Bibliographic Classification short note
Henry Evelyn Bliss, a scholar in library classification, developed the Bibliographic Classification (BC) system between 1940 and 1953. He believed that there exists a natural order of main classes based on scientific and educational consensus. The order of main classes in BC is as follows:

Library automation
Library automation refers to the process of using technology and software systems to streamline and enhance various library functions and operations. It involves the implementation of computerized systems to manage library collections, cataloging, circulation, patron management, and other administrative tasks. Library automation has revolutionized the way libraries operate, offering numerous benefits and efficiencies.
Advantages of Library Automation:
