Following closely upon the Harris classification is another American scheme, dating from about 1871, in which an attempt is made to combine a numerical sub-classification with sizes. The method is described in the Library Journal (1878), Vol. III. There are twenty-five classes, each designated by the letters from A to Z, excluding J. Each of the twenty-five classes is divided into nine sub-classes by adding 1 to 9, and these sub-classes are further sub-divided by adding one of the twenty-five letters. A further element is introduced by a series of letters to denote sizes, D = duodecimo, o = octavo, Q = quarto, and F = folio. Thus a book may have a number like "A8mo." This system was invented by Mr. Jacob Schwartz, of the Apprentices' Library, New York; and in 1879 he issued an amplification of the same, which is described in the Library Journal (1879), Vol. IV. It is styled the "Mnemonic System of Classification," and its main outlines are these: Schwartz's Scheme (1871-79) A. Arts, Fine And Useful G. Government And Social 1. Agriculture Science 2. Carpentry H-History, General 3. Fine Arts, General J-Jurisprudence 4. Games-Language 5-Household Science L" Literature 6 Music '-iental and Moral Science 7.' Painting N-Natural History 8. Sculpture-Oriental History And 9. Useful Arts B...
