Lisa Silverman Library Director Sinai Temple Library 10400 Wilshire Blvd. Los Angeles, CA 90024 (310) 481-3215 -----Original Message----- From: hasafran-bounces+lsilverman=sinaitemple....@lists.service.ohio-state.edu [mailto:hasafran-bounces+lsilverman=sinaitemple....@lists.service.ohio-state.edu] On Behalf Of Riva Berleant Sent: Saturday, July 13, 2013 6:51 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [ha-Safran] Weine 2103 Dear Colleagues, I had just finished a year organizing and classifying a synagogue library using Weine 1995 when Weine 2013 appeared. I felt sick. I am now going over the two of them line by line to see the differences and incorporate them with my own changes into one system for our library. So far I have these questions about 2013, which someone may be able to help me with: z020.5 Judaica libraries This refers to library science, for instance, where you would place the Weine Classification scheme itself z026 Jewish libraries This would be items about the Sinai Temple Library, for example Which should be used when? --------------------- z032 Miscellanea, Trivia, catalogs I'm not sure about this one. Joel will get back to you! z090 Catalogs again, which when? ------------------------------ 200.05 History of Religion We do not have this number on our final scheme, so I am confused about this. 250.09 History of Religion What is the reasoning here? -------------------------------------- z259.4 Non-Jewish philosophy This is under "Religion" so it deals with religious philosophy z100 Philosophy This is for general philosophy that does not stem from religious thought. You can choose to put everything in 259.4 if that makes life easier, though. I see that z259.4 will keep all philosophy books together, non-Jewish right next to Jewish and would solve the Spinoza problem (nice to keep him near Jews, even though his philosophy isn't especially Jewish). So why keep the z100 at all? On the other hand, z259.4 seems to me to diminish the entire body of non-Jewish philosophy. That's as far as I've gotten. Maybe more later. Thanks.
