  11. @genmon I hope that's not the only way of navigating through this data.

    #Dewey is really a very bad idea in general and this dirty workaround should be replaced by more practical alterantives as soon as possible.

    I really don't get it why so many people still use #DCC as hierarchy. Its structure is a frozen state of a hundred year-old bias which doesn't reflect our reality any more for many decades.

  16. As they do every 10th of December, many #libraries celebrate #DeweyDecimalSystemDay today, because the founder of the #DeweyDecimalClassification (#DDC), Melvil Dewey, was born on December 10th, 1851. The DDC is still the most widely used classification in the world. But Melvil Dewey is also known for discriminatory behavior and sexual harassment (smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/). So should one join in the celebration or not?

  17. Wie an jedem 10. Dezember feiern heute viele #Bibliotheken den #DeweyDecimalSystemDay, denn der Begründer der #DeweyDecimalClassification (#DDC), Melvil Dewey, wurde am 10.12.1851 geboren. Die DDC ist noch immer die weitverbreitetste Klassifikation weltweit. Doch Melvil Dewey ist auch bekannt für diskriminerendes Verhalten und sexuelle Belästigung (smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/). Sollte man also mitfeiern oder nicht?
