Dewey Decimal system Summary
http://www.lib.colum.edu/colum/library/deweysum.html#390S
Based on Dewey Decimal Classification 20th ed. with modifications for cataloging practices at Columbia College Library. Please note that this listing merely represents the standard system in use at present. Dewey has undergone many changes, and some books in the library may be classified in locations other than what might be implied by this list. Likewise, the fact that a particular number is found in the list does not guarantee that the library actually has books on that subject.

Many readers are curious about the creators of the books they enjoy. The more than three hundred links to author/illustrator sites included here will help to satisfy that curiosity. Young people especially want to know about their favorite authors/illustrators because they often feel that an author/illustrator is speaking directly and personally to them through the work. Learning about authors/illustrators can also help young people see possible connections between a creator's life and the works created and encourage them to consider different techniques and approaches to the compositional act.
