摘要:As a cricket agnostic, I wasn't the obvious candidate for a trip to the MCC library. However, as a fully paid-upcataloguing geek, the opportunity to spend an afternoon looking at a home-grown classification scheme as wellas a guided tour of a historic building was too much to resist. As the keeper of our own classification scheme, Iwas excited about the chance to see how another library manages their scheme. From any perspective, thelibrary was a fascinating place – there is a TV above the enquiry desk and comfy chairs! – but to a classificationobsessive, it was highly educational. The issues involved in classifying materials about cricket venues, chimedheartily with my own experiences of classifying by concert venue and by art gallery.
