Library Books
As I was sitting in the library, I found myself staring at the thousands of books available. That got me thinking about the organization system used to store books on the shelves. It is most commonly referred to as the Dewey Decimal Classification System. It can be thought of as a very simple type of code. Each number, or set of numbers, represents a specific book. The number also reveals the location of the book. The Dewey Decimal System is a great way to classify books because it is simple and easy to use.

I agree with what you are saying because all of the codes we have read about so far have been to conceal or jumble information. The Dewey Decimal System rather organizes information and also someone to find his or her book in a much shorter time period.
