The Adjustable Classification has been prepared for the use of municipal public libraries chiefly; but it can be adapted to almost any variety of general library, provided arrangements are made for sub divisions.

Each of these divisions is capable of infinite sub-division. For most ordinary purposes the divisions printed will meet every need.
