Library changing classification of non-fiction books

Many library goers are used to the Dewey Decimal System when searching for books on the shelves.  The system is a proprietary library classification method first published in the United States by Melvil Dewey in 1876.
 

 

 
In an effort to make the search process for books easier, the Vespasian Warner Public Library is planning on changing their classification system according to Children's Librarian Paula Lopatic.

 

 
Lopatic explains what the library is envisioning for this reclassification.

 

 
While this will make searching for books much easier, it'll be a long process reorganizing into the new system.
