Line 1:
The '''Cutter Expansive Classification''' system is a [[library classification]] system devised by [[Charles Ammi Cutter]]. It uses all letters to designate the top categories of books. This is in contrast to the [[Dewey Decimal Classification]], which uses only numbers, and the [[Library of Congress classification]], which uses a mixture of letters and numbers. The system was the basis for the top categories of the Library of Congress classification.
"No one, perhaps, can remember it all; it cannot be learned, even in part, very quickly; but those who use the library much will find that they become familiar in time unconsciously with all that they have much occasion to use."
