Hi James,

One simple way to handle it is with a case statement.  The
following example has a static between filter for the dates but it
illustrates this approach. You can also do some cleaning to make sure there
aren't spaces in front and it assumes that all of your DDC numbers in fact
start with a digit.

SELECT
COUNT(*),
CASE
    WHEN LEFT(it.itemcallnumber,1) = '0' THEN '000s'
    WHEN LEFT(it.itemcallnumber,1) = '1' THEN '100s'
    WHEN LEFT(it.itemcallnumber,1) = '2' THEN '200s'
    WHEN LEFT(it.itemcallnumber,1) = '3' THEN '300s'
    WHEN LEFT(it.itemcallnumber,1) = '4' THEN '400s'
    WHEN LEFT(it.itemcallnumber,1) = '5' THEN '500s'
    WHEN LEFT(it.itemcallnumber,1) = '6' THEN '600s'
    WHEN LEFT(it.itemcallnumber,1) = '7' THEN '700s'
    WHEN LEFT(it.itemcallnumber,1) = '8' THEN '800s'
    WHEN LEFT(it.itemcallnumber,1) = '9' THEN '900s'
    ELSE 'OTHER'
    END
from (SELECT * FROM issues UNION ALL SELECT * FROM old_issues) i
JOIN items it ON it.itemnumber = i.itemnumber
WHERE DATE(i.timestamp) BETWEEN '2020-02-01' AND '2020-02-29'
GROUP BY 2 ORDER BY 2;
