[ha-Safran]: Weine Classification Question

[Heather Lenson]

I am in the process of cataloging "Zishe the Strongman" (Robert 
Rubinstein, Kar-Ben, 2010)

by subject. I would like to catalog under a circus performer. What 
would that catalog be?

Hello and thanks to all who responded regarding classification 
suggestions for In Our Own Voices: A Guide to Conducting Life History 
Interviews.  Jayne K. Guberman, ed.
Sorry for the slow followup.

My initial inclination was to place it in 929, geneology, so, with 
some consensus of suggestions, and my own inclination and, since I'm 
the sole librarian in my library I went with 929.

I received the following suggestions...
1) 300 I5 (sociology)
2) 900.07 (history, study and teaching).
3) I'd put it with other books on geneology.  Kurzweil has done a 
book, and there are a couple of others.  I'd put it with them. - I 
don't suggest putting it with women's studies, even though that's the 
ostensible topic; it's about the process, not the subje
4) I have that cataloged in 304.1 JWA.  I had a tough time deciding 
but chose this because I consider oral history to be sociological 
history (sociology is 300)and it's about interviewing women 
(04.1).  It could go under genealogy (929) or History of Jews in the 
US (973).  Hmm, I might even change mine to 929...

Thanks again to everyone who responded..

[ha-Safran]: Weine classification documents on the AJL website

[Deborah Stern]

I am pleased to announce that the Weine classification scheme 
documents are now available for free download to AJL members only on 
the AJL website. Weine is the classification and subject heading 
scheme developed in the 1960's by our late colleague Mae Weine for 
primarily small Judaic libraries, under 10,000 volumes. It is used by 
many AJL members. The documents are in Word format so that 
individuals may easily modify them to suit their own library's needs.

Non-AJL members and others wishing to purchase the print versions may 
still do so using the AJL Publications order form, also available on 
the AJL web site at: 
http://www.jewishlibraries.org/ajlweb/publications/publications_order_form.pdf

In addition to the documents you will find a link on the same page to 
the Weine Users Discussion Group, hosted by Google. A Weine user's 
group has also been organized for AJL members. Email Joan Gremont, 
[EMAIL PROTECTED], for more information.

To find the web page listing the Weine documents, click on Resources 
on the AJL home page, and then on Weine Documents and Users Group 
(http://www.jewishlibraries.org/ajlweb/resources/weine.htm).
 


Hope everyone is having a good summer.

[ha-Safran]: Weine Classification Scheme for Judaica Libraries

[Library]

We are the Fritz Lehr Library of Temple Emanu-El in 
Westfield,  NJ.  We use the Weine system for cataloging our books, 
which sometimes gives us problems in classifying a book.
We would like to know what call number should be used for the following book:
In the Name of Heaven:  3000 Years of Religious Persecution by Mary 
Jane Engh, ISBN 1591024544
Thanks for any help.

Joan, add me in:  Evi Reznick, Yeshiva Atlanta (High School), we use
InfoCentre and Athena and hope to be online soon. I will post our info
on the AJL online website as soon as the tech department runs the online
cables for my server.  I'm so glad you're organizing this.  Most of the
Judaic libraries in Atlanta use Weine.

[ha-Safran]: Weine Classification System

[Joan Gremont]

I am posting this a second time in case you missed it the first time around.
If your library uses Weine and you would like to have your name on a 
group of "Weine users" please send me your name, type of library, 
contact information and whether or not your collection is online.  It 
was suggested that this list be made available on the AJL website and 
I will follow up on this idea.

I am hoping to have all this information by Friday of this week.

Thanks,
Joan

[ha-Safran]: Weine Classification

[esti]

Hello,
I am a masters student at the Information School at UW and I have taken on 
the project of reorganizing the library at the new Hillel facility.  Rabbi 
Dan Bridge gave me a bit of information about the last time the collection 
was cataloged and also the notebook of the last student who did it.  She 
used the Weine Classification System, with which I am presently 
unfamiliar.  The booklets she had were from 1995 - the 8th edition.  Is 
there a newer addition?
I appreciate any assistance you can give me in clarifying this project.

Thank you,

Esti Shay
