Bliss Bibliographic Classification

Bliss Bibliographic Classification - Class J : Education / D. J. Foskett and Joy Foskett

The files for Class J are in pdf format, created from the source files from which the printed edition of this schedule was produced. The current latest version of the software was used to generate the output on this site, so there are some slight differences from the printed version. These are mainly in formatting rather than in content, though a few changes to notation were needed where errors in the schedules were detected.

The schedules may be updated from time to time to incorporate additions and corrections. There are no hypertext linkages within or between the files; the "find" function in pdf reading software such as Acrobat Reader can be used to find specific words, phrases or classmarks, if allowance is made for the fact that some parts of classmarks are not repeated for every occurrence in the schedule.

Introduction, including a detailed discussion of the principles of faceted classification as they have been applied to this class.

Using the index: an introductory note on its structure and compilation. The index here has been newly compiled from the schedule, using the current software and without editorial intervention. It therefore contains some inappropriate entries, and differs from the index in the published volume. This note includes examples from class W, but the same principles apply.
