The chapter explores the limitations of the Dewey decimal classification system, discussing its biases and origins in the Victorian era. The speakers also explain how books are organized in libraries based on subject headings and physical location on the shelf.
Chiara Ogan is a former UX designer and information architect. She recently left that career to become a mental health therapist. Chiara’s background is in library science, and in this conversation, we discuss how she organizes her personal book collection — which she just did in preparation for this major life change.
