Assigning Class Numbers and Subject Headings for Myanmar Historical Books
Yu Yu Naing
In libraries, assigning class numbers and subject headings are very important functions to give users’ needed information. Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC) and Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH) systems are very useful in the world because of flexibility, reliability, exactitude, and extendable of these systems. The information of Myanmar is very narrow sense in these systems such as fields of ethnic groups, geographical areas, dynasties, wars, and historical periods and events for Myanmar So, the given classification numbers and subject headings are not adequate for Myanmar library professionals. It is the duty of Myanmar librarians and researchers to create extended library classification numbers and subject headings for Myanmar. This paper emphasizes on Myanmar historical periods in DDC 23rd edition and in LCSH 30th edition to extend. Thus, it will be valuable for all classifiers or librarians in local and abroad.
