It's time for another round of Using WebDewey and Understanding Dewey Decimal Classification, brought to you by ALA Publishing in cooperation with OCLC. Dewey Editor Violet Fox will serve as the instructor for this 4-week facilitated eCourse starting on Monday, November 2, 2020.
Participants will gain a comprehensive grounding in Dewey Decimal Classification® (DDC) principles and practices. Starting with the basics, this eCourse will teach you how to:
- Navigate within WebDewey to determine appropriate DDC numbers
- Build numbers using the WebDewey number building tool
- Apply numbers that help patrons browse your library
Plus, experienced users will benefit from guidance building more complex numbers and learn how to make more effective use of WebDewey. Lessons are asynchronous so you can review course materials and complete exercises as your schedule allows.
I love being a part of this course, which always includes Dewey users from around the world. It's a lot of fun to see those lightbulb moments when students begin to understand the concepts of the DDC! To learn more and register for this eCourse, please visit the ALAstore.
