Overdue refers to materials that have not been returned to a library by the date they were due. When an item becomes overdue, the borrower may be charged a fine or fee. The amount of the fine or fee can vary depending on the type of material and the policies of the particular library. Some libraries have automated systems that send reminders to patrons when an item is overdue or about to become overdue. Overdue materials can also cause problems for other patrons who may be waiting for the item, so it is important for borrowers to return materials on time.

Interlibrary loan (ILL) is a service offered by libraries that allow patrons to borrow books and other materials from libraries outside their own system. If a patron is unable to find a book or other item at their own library, they can request it through ILL and the library will try to borrow the item from another library. Interlibrary loans can be a useful service for patrons who are unable to find a particular item at their local library or for libraries that have limited resources and need to borrow materials from other libraries to meet the needs of their patrons.

Libraries often have a fine policy in place to encourage patrons to return materials on time and to ensure that materials are available for others to use.

Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC) system

Leave a Comment / LIS Studies, Questions & Answer, Uncategorized / January 1, 2023 / Ch Bakht Yar Zafar / artical, classification numbers, computer, DDC, Dewey Decimal System, Library, materials, organize, system, system of graphic

The Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC) system is a system of library classification used to organize and arrange books and other materials in a library. It was developed by Melvil Dewey in the 1870s and is still in widespread use today.

The DDC is based on a system of ten main classes, each representing a broad subject area. These main classes are further divided into smaller divisions, and then into even smaller sections until each book or material is assigned a unique classification number. The classification numbers are arranged in a decimal format, with the first digit representing the main class, the second and third digits representing the division, and so on.

For example, the number “500” represents the natural sciences and mathematics, while the number “540” represents chemistry and “550” represents earth sciences. Within the earth sciences section, the number “550.1” represents geology, and “550.2” represents meteorology.

The DDC is used to organize and arrange books and materials in a library, and to help library patrons find the materials they are looking for. It is also used to create library catalogs and bibliographies.
