I think you can&#039;t depend on DDC alone for shelving locations because you may faced authors writing in different subjects or with different languages, so their books will be distributed by DDC only, so you will not be able to collect threir works toghether.<br />Here in Bibliotheca Alexandrina we are using Cutter in combination with DDC, by this cutter we have always the same code to the author what ever DDC number o the language.<br />by this you can find all William shakespeare works in DDC 822.33 with cutter number S5272 &#040;cutter for shakespeare&#041; what ever the book language

A fun commercial tool is Dewey Easy 2.0 from library tools. www.librarytools.com I couldn&#039;t use it for what I needed to do &#040;training temps without use of computers&#041; so I &#034;adapted&#034; from Easy Dewey into a document of 2 pages with a test page and answer sheet. But it has a demo so you can play with it yourself. I received help from people in school libraries but again it didn&#039;t quite give me what I wanted at the time.<br />What type of library are you in? <br />ss

&gt; I&#039;m looking for a ready&#045;made tool for teaching the<br />&gt; shelving of the Dewey Decimal classification. Thank<br />&gt; you.<br /><br /><br />Exactly what I&#039;m looking for too.
