GENERAL PLAN OF THE CLASSIFICATION A N D SUGGESTIONS FOR ITS USE

The "Decimal Classification" was f i r s t printed by the National Petroleum Publishing Company, publishers of National Petroleum News, in 1928. A second edition appeared in serial f o r m in The Petroleum Engineer in 1938 and was later reprinted in booklet f o r m . During the intervening y e a r s since it was f i r s t available, many persons apparently have found this system useful in meeting their filing problems. A r t i c l e s printed in The Petroleum Engineer have f o r many y e a r s been numbered in accordance with this decimal classification to f a c i l itate o r d e r l y clipping and filing. It has also found use in oil company o f f i c e s and l i b r a r i e s where filing of petroleum technology r e f e r e n c e material is a day-today problem. To better s e r v e the needs of those who have made use of the e a r l i e r editions and to assist others who may wish to adopt a ready-made filing system patterned to their needs, the author has been encouraged to prepare this expanded and, it is hoped, t h e r e f o r e m o r e useful third edition of the Decimal Classification. An e f f o r t has been made to bring it up to date by including many new items made necessary by the rapidly expanding petroleum technology of recent y e a r s . This has been accomplished within the framework of the e a r l i e r editions, and it should be emphasized that no changes have been made in numbers previously assigned to v a r ious topics, so that in adopting this new edition, those who have previously used the Classification need anticipate no rearrangement of material already, filed. The w r i t e r is indebted to the publishers of National Petroleum News and the publishers of The Petroleum Engineer f o r permission to publish this third edition under the auspices of the University of California P r e s s . This permission has been granted and the University of California P r e s s has undertaken this project as a s e r v i c e tothose engaged inthe petroleum industry, in the interests of m o r e widespread use of the Classification, and m o r e systematic filing and o r d e r l y arrangement of material in publications serving the petroleum industry. The author is also appreciative of suggestions which have come to him f r o m many sources f o r preparation of this new edition. Among others who have expressed interest and given assistance, the w r i t e r wishes p a r t i c ularly to thank M r . K. C. Sclater, editor of The P e t r o leum Engineer, M r . V. B. Guthrie, editor of National Petroleum News, and Mr. J. I. Laudermilk of the Socony Vacuum Oil Co. Some have expressed hope that such a classification as this might find wider use by the professional societies, industrial organizations, and trade journals serving the petroleum industry, so that the printed material they distribute may come with unif o r m filing numbers attached. Perhaps it is not too much to hope that such an organization as the American Petroleum Institute may adopt a standard classification system that would, perhaps in time, be uniformly adopted by all concerned.

Explanation of the Decimal System of Classification

Systematic filing and indexing of technical papers, r e ports, notes, pamphlets, catalogs, clippings, maps, drawings, and so on is a problem that concerns e v e r y engineer and is a matter of importance in e v e r y oil c o m pany o f f i c e . T o those who use such material, the development of a suitable system of classification to f a c i l itate o r d e r l y filing is a practical necessity. Much useful material is often buried in filing cabinets or in shelves

or cupboards with little or no pretense at systematic arrangement. When some particular r e f e r e n c e m a t e r i a l is needed, valuable time is lost in searching f o r it, or the existence of certain material already in the f i l e s is forgotten or overlooked, and much trouble and expense are incurred in duplicating it. One often r e m e m b e r s seeing certain data but cannot r e c a l l the title or author of the paper nor the journal or book in which they are hidden. We regard with interest the man who has arranged his r e f e r e n c e material so conveniently and systematically that he can promptly say whether or not he has c e r tain information, and if he has, produce it. He saves much time by not having to search f o r things. There is r e a l satisfaction, too, in knowing that a certain.folder contains all the information on some particular subject; that in our consideration of a matter to which it relates, nothing is being overlooked. If we are called f r o m the o f f i c e to the field, we turn to our f i l e s and select those f o l d e r s pertaining to the work that we are to do, and everything that we have applicable to the work in hand w i l l be in these f o l d e r s . Or we are able to send to our o f f i c e f r o m a distance, and an assistant takes f r o m the f i l e s exactly what we need. The finding of something particularly wanted should not be dependent upon the m e m o r y of one clerk. O f f i c e personnel changes, and the filing system must be independent of personalities and personnel turnover. A l l this is possible if one gives thought to developing a suitable system of classification and then applies it intelligently to the material to be classified. Much c l e r i c a l work may be involved in makinjg the original classification and arranging the material in proper sequence, particularly if the volume of accumulated material is l a r g e . Once the p r i m a r y c l a s s i f i c a tion and arrangement are accomplished, however, subsequent filing of additional data in accordance with the same plan adds but little to the daily routine. The greater difficulty comes in planning the classification so that material w i l l be arranged systematically and so that the system will be sufficiently elastic and c o m p r e hensive to provide f o r future expansion or specialization in different directions. Of the various plans that have been developed f o r filing, indexing, and arranging technical data, none has proved m o r e satisfactory than the decimal system of classification in conjunction with a comprehensive card index arranged by subject matter. The decimal system is one originally devised by M. Dewey and elaborated by him in his book, A Decimal Classification and Relative Index f o r L i b r a r i e s , Clippings, Notes, etc. In the Dewey decimal system, the entire f i e l d of knowledge is divided into ten main divisions, numbered by the digits f r o m 0 to 9, thus: 0. - General Works 5. - Natural Sciences 1. - Philosophy 6. - Useful A r t s 2. - Religion 7. - Fine A r t s 3. - Sociology 8. - Literature 4. - Philology 9. - History These m a j o r divisions are subdivided by the addition of other digits, f o r example: 610. - Medicine 660. - Chemical Technology 620. - Engineering 670. - Manufactures 630. - Agriculture 680. - Mechanical T r a d e s 640. - Domestic Economy 690. - Building 650. - Communication and C o m m e r c e Further subdivision within the field of engineering gives the following: 620. - Engineering 622. - Mining Engineering 621. - Mechanical En623. - M i l i t a r y Engingineering eering 1 -
