Abstract
"One hundred years ago, in 1876, Melvil Dewey anonymously published
the first edition of his classification system. Forest Press, publisher of the
Dewey Decimal Classification since 1931, could think of no more suitable way
to honor the DDC and its author during this centennial year than to bring
together librarians interested in classification. It was with great pleasure,
therefore, that Forest Press welcomed the opportunity to cosponsor with the
University of Illinois Graduate School of Library Science the twenty-first
annual Allerton Park Institute. Held on November 9-12, 1975, the topic of
the institute was, most appropriately, ""Major Classification Systems: the
Dewey Centennial."""
