    Melvil Dewey created the Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC) system when he was 21 to bring order to the massive amount of world knowledge. The DDC divides all knowledge into 10 main categories represented by 3-digit numbers. Each category has a title describing the subject area it covers, such as 000 for general works, 500 for science and technology, and 800 for literature. The DDC call number can be found on the spine of each book and is used to easily shelve books by subject in libraries around the world that implement the DDC system.
