In early 2001, I noticed that social disorderliness was not receding as I had thought it would in my childhood (circa 1971). I pledged to myself that I would find the root of the problem and develop the solution. It was not until early 2007 that I recognized that the problem was the inadequate quality of the library classification systems.
further description of the generation of the research may be found in my blogs and social media
The Secular Library is the corporate guardianship of the classification systems that are derived from the collation format that I was able to extrapolate from heuristic estimations of the general categories of knowledge.
Library classification systems are the closest technology to a knowledge classification system. The problem is that neither the Dewey Decimal nor the Library of Congress classification systems help the student understand the relationships between the categories of knowledge, otherwise, we would refer to the relationships to support our arguments, like we refer to dictionary definitions and encyclopedia descriptions in our arguments of reason. The library classification systems are based on academic subjects as portals to the world's knowledge. The Secular Library system is based on a cognitive categorization theory.
The Dewey Decimal System seems to organize the main categories of knowledge along the lines of the traditional school curriculum and is ordered in a base-ten (decimal) format. The two systems do not coordinate. The general categories are not distributed equally into ten parts; and nobody knows how the descending categories are determined, because it is not "logical," as the advocates for the system claim it to be. If it were logical, then we would refer to it just as we refer to the dictionary definitions to support arguments of reason. If it were logical then we would memorize the general categories.
The Library of Congress classification system supposedly organizes the subjects of knowledge to assist the members of the federal government. The LCC was generated soon after the Dewey system and was designed to improve upon the DDC by exploring a wider range of general categories. It also appears that it deploys the "past, present, and future" trinity from Thomas Jefferson's classification system. It is questionable whether the system helps anybody any more than the Dewey Decimal System does. There are no research projects claiming the library classification systems enhance the students' ability to analyze information.
The Secular Library realms are the most general systems that correspond to the simplest concepts that our minds use to identify characteristics for categorizing entities.
