Classification of Canon Law
Instructions:
In 2001, the Library of Congress moved Canon Law out of the BX
class and into the new KBR and KBU classes. The new K classes allowed for a
great deal more specific breakdown by title, jurist, etc. than had the BX
class. However, at Saint Anselm, because the collection is so heavily
weighted toward religious materials, it was decided not to move Canon Law
materials out of the B's. The
new organization of the K classes will be incorporated into the BX classes.
Historically, two number areas have been
used for History of Canon Law (BX 1935 - KBR) and Canon Law (BX 1939 - KBU).
These were the old LC class areas. In order to preserve the order of the new
class, the new K number will be used, but appended to the first two lines of
the "historical" class area.

By keeping BX1935, Canon Law materials are
kept close to their like subject materials. However, in the new class 2212 is
for Codex iuris canonici after 1983, use table KB7, this is an annotated
edition, cuttered by main entry. Using the former class area would have
placed all Canon Law materials together, cuttered for main entry, and since
many of these materials have either uniform titles, or are issued by a body
such as the Catholic Church, this does little to organize these materials.
The remainder of subclass KB is still under construction and
will similarly reorganize other areas of Religious Legal Systems (Hindu
jurisprudence, etc.).
Reclassification Notes:
For purposes of this reclassification, we will search by call
number and subject areas. We will not, however, reclassify related subjects
(such as Abbots (Canon law)).
Also, while there has been some question as to the correctness
of using third alpha- numeric cutters, they may occasionally be necessary for
this class area, and are acceptable.
