Re: [ha-Safran]: Websites with Weine numbers?

[Rose Myers]

I don't know a positive answer to your questions. But I think that 
Weine is not enough like Dewey that you can simply use Dewey numbers. 
There are catalogs listed online available through the AJL website, 
jewishlibraries.org, and if you want to search the ones that use 
Weine for your books, you may get lucky. (Alas, that's kinda what I do.)

Using the Dewey number won't work because virtually every non-fiction 
book in your library will have the Dewey number for Judaism - 296...
   You can buy a copy of the Weine list for a few dollars from the 
AJL.(Click on publications at the website 
www.jewishlibraries.org).
Our Wise Temple Library uses Weine and we've actually had to 
expand it a bit to accommodate our collection of 20,000.  You could 
always use our catalog for numbers if you like.  We're at 
www.wisetemple.org  Click on Libraries.

Subject: [ha-Safran]: Websites with Weine numbers?

I am not a librarian, but I’ve been charged with 
entering books that come into our library with 
call numbers and shelving them.  Is there such a 
thing as a website where I can find call numbers 
already assigned to published books?  We use the 
Weine system, but I’m not sure how that differs 
from the traditional Dewey numbers except to make 
them more specifically targeted for Jewish 
holdings… would finding a Dewey listing be adequate for my purposes?
