Old Dartmouth Classification Schedules, Volume 1, Copy 1
Dateyyyy-mm-dd
abstractThe Old Dartmouth Classification Schedules is a classification system for books, created and used by the Dartmouth College Library in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The Dartmouth Library Cataloging System was developed by Marvin Davis Bisbee, Dartmouth Class of 1871, appointed librarian at Dartmouth College in 1887. It was modeled after a system created by Charles Ammi Cutter, a library science pioneer of the time. The new system tracked objects by subject, author, and title. Although new materials in the Dartmouth College Library collections are no longer classified in this system, many titles are still cataloged and shelved by the Old Dartmouth Classification scheme.

Vol I: A - H
DARTMOUTH COLLEGE LIBRARY
Hanover N.H.
PAMPHLETS - CLASSIFIED PAMPHLET FILE.
Use letter classification A-Z, loose leaf books.
Use 3 figure Cutter tables for all new material.
Make shelf-list cards for all pamphlets.
All currently received pamphlets are accessioned.
- With blue and buff cards: Those having imprint date within past five years, or for which special treatment has been requested.
- Without blue or buff cards: All others.
Catalog briefly and be sparing of secondary entries. Simple collation for modern
imprints.
Prefer H—T for local material, when possible, even if more like G class.
Challenge older N.H. imprints, and White Mt. material.
Watch for all Al. Alc. items also.
Check call no. in pamphlet file before having cards typed or marking pamphlet, because
the pamphlet
shelf-list does not contain cards for all pamphlets added before 1945.
Pamphlets are marked in ink or a sticker on the upper left corner with the call no.
& are
stamped with Dartmouth college library stamp in upper right corner. Indicate author
& title
clearly on cover.
All pamphlet catalog cards are on orange stock.
Call no.:
| pClass | Use q & f as for books. |
| Author | File in oversize drawer only when necessary. |
Pamphlets are counted on monthly report sheet as follows:
- An accessioned pamphlet counts as a New title & pamphlet.
- An unaccessioned pamphlet as a pamphlet only. (Occasionally pamphlets that have been
in the
library
in other locations are sent though to be cataloged for the classified pamphlet file. These are often unaccessioned.)
