PREFACE

The Masonic Classification herewith presented is the result of

some twenty-two years of practical experience in the largest masonic

library in the world—the Library of the Supreme Council, 33rd

Degree at Washington. This Library, in addition to its thousands

of items on Freemasonry and related societies, contains also

thousands upon thousands of general works in all branches of

literature. These latter works are classified according to the well-

known Dewey Decimal System, but this system provides no classi-

fication of freemasonry, assigning one class only to the subject, which

class is practically incapable of subdivision. The scheme which I

have devised and which is in successful practical operation, provides

for nearly four hundred classes and sub-classes.

Practically all masonic libraries contain much general literature,

but as they specialize on freemasonry, it becomes necessary to

provide some system which will allow of their classification in-

dependently of the general library. Many libraries use the DeweyDecimal System, and I have devised the present scheme to prevent

confusion, not only in the classification, but also in the catalogue

card number, the book label number, the shelf guide number,

and in various other ways, the letter "M" (Masonry) arbitrarily

prefixed to the digits, always indicating the card, the book, its

label, and the shelf-guide, as of masonic import.

The entire range of masonic literature is divided into ten great

classes, somewhat similar to Dewey's ten great classes of general

literature. These ten classes are subdivided again and again to

suit the requirements of the literature on a given subject. For

example, if we have a general history of freemasonry, it goes in

class M10. If it is a history of Freemasonry in Europe, it goes

in class M17.940, the M17, indicating that it is a geographical

division of masonic history, and the 940, indicating that it is a

history of Freemasonry in Europe, the 940 being Dewey's notation

for Europe. Again, take the class M20, which is Customs and

Paraphernalia. Any general work on the subject would go in this

class, but if the library possessed literature on the Obituary Rites

of freemasonry, it would go in class M20.01; if it had works on

Paraphernalia, they would go in class M21; Jewels and Medals

would go in M22, and so on.

I am familiar with several schemes of masonic classification,

made by interested masons, but they utterly fail to be of any

practical value. Several public libraries have attempted classi-

fications, but the lack of knowledge of the subject, has been the

cause of some grave errors. For instance, the Library of Congress,

in its treatment of Scottish Rite Literature has placed everything

of this nature under the caption "Cerneau Organizations", whereas

every intelligent mason knowing that "Cerneuaism" is regarded

throughout the masonic world as spurious and clandestine, would

never look for the extensive literature of the Scottish Rite under

this heading; and as this same library in its classification pro-

vides for "Non-recognized, Clandestine Masonry", Cerneauism

would be properly looked for here. This is simply one of the

errors of the Library of Congress classification.

The Subject Index following the classification, is a most im-

portant and useful feature, giving to the reader when in doubt

the exact location of a given subject, and aiding the librarian in

cataloguing his books, showing him to what class the books should

be assigned and familiarizing him with a knowledge of the system.
