NOTATIONAL SYNTHESIS (NUMBER BUILDING)
What Is Notational Synthesis
* Notational synthesis or number-building is the process of constructing a classification number not listed in the schedules, following rules given in the scheme for combining numbers.
Number-Building in DDC
* Most important subjects have ready-made class numbers that are enumerated (listed) in the DDC schedules.
* Nevertheless, many subjects are still not provided for, and these can be synthesized by the number-building process.
