Knowledge Organization and Ranganathan
Knowledge Organization (KO) is a sub-discipline at the core of Information 59 Studies. The term knowledge organization is of comparatively recent origin; however. Bliss titled one of his books as Organization of Knowledge in Libraries. Knowledge organization as a discipline has its origins in philosophy; most early classificationists were philosophers. The history of modern library classification, however, begins in the last quarter of the 19th Century with the works of Melville Dewey and Charles Cutter. In the initial decades, however, Classification and Cataloguing were treated as two related but distinct subdisciplines. Even Subject Cataloguing / subject indexing was being treated independently of developments in Classification.
