We have previously written about volcanoes in the context of national parks (“National Parks, Volcanoes, and Bird Watching”), and we gave there the interdisciplinary number for volcanoes: 551.21 Volcanoes. WebDewey has a built number for volcanoes in Iceland: 551.21094912 Volcanoes—Iceland (built with 551.21 plus T1—09 Historical, geographic, persons treatment plus T2—4912 Iceland, following instructions at T1—093–T1—099 Treatment by specific continents, countries, localities; extraterrestrial worlds). An example of a work classed in 551.21094912 is Volcanoes in Iceland: 10,000 Years of Volcanic History. Some of the news stories about the eruption of Eyjafjallajokull have focused on the volcano, e.g., “Volcano Eruption: Iceland’s Volcano Explained” and “Eyjafjallajokull Update: Eruption Ongoing but Smaller.”
Most news stories, however, have emphasized the effect of the volcanic ash clouds on air transportation, e.g., “Iceland Volcano Ash Hits European Flights Again” (AFP) and “How Volcano Chaos Unfolded: In Graphics” (BBC) (summary of the BBC story: “The ash cloud produced by the eruption of a sub-glacial volcano in Iceland brought chaos to the European air industry between 14 and 21 April. Here we explain how and why the crisis developed”). See also the BBC overview page “Volcanic Ash Cloud.” UK’s National Weather Service has one of the “Nine Volcanic Ash Advisory Centres around the world [that are] are responsible for advising international aviation of the location and movement of clouds of volcanic ash”; its site has information about the VAAC system and advisories from the London and Toulouse centers.
The interdisciplinary number for volcanic ash as a cause—or potential cause—of air transportation accidents is 363.12412 Natural factors, a subdivision of 363.1241 Causes of air and space accidents. Examples of works classed in 363.12412 are National Volcanic Ash Operations Plan for Aviation and Support of the ICAO International Airways Volcano Watch and Volcanic Ash Detection and Air Safety: Final Report to the CSIRO Office of Space Science and Applications.
The comprehensive number for technology of air safety is 629.1300289 Air safety—technology (built with 629.13 Aeronautics plus 0 plus standard subdivision T1—0289 Safety measures, following the pattern of double 00 for standard subdivisions shown in the entry 629.13001–629.13009 Standard subdivisions); 629.1300289 includes air traffic control and ground operations as well as flight. An example of a work classed in that number is Proceedings of the 2000 Advances in Aviation Safety Conference. Works that focus on volcanic ash in relation to air safety technology might be classed in 629.1300289 or might be classed in a more specific subdivision of 629.13, depending on the focus of the work.

Hi,
I noticed you were a fan of LibraryThing and I thought I'd contact you about a article I've recently put together about cataloging software I'd like to call: The Ultimate Guide to Cataloging Software.
Could you take a gander when you get the chance, maybe give me a plug if you like it;)

Thanks,
Richard

There are lots of industries working all over the world but good to see there are lot of blogs also who are sharing industrial information. Great job keep this work up!
