Workings

This is the categorization method of COSBlib. It is a rough guide; not every book fits fully in its category. Also, since I had yet to read every book, some are classified according to its feel, title and synopsis. If anyone feels that it is in the wrong place, please feel free to leave a comment. Also, these are broad arbitrary categories, so it will probably not be the same in public libraries or in bookstores. I tried to use DCC (the system public libraries use), but found it to be even more difficult to fit the topics into. It was more suited for a research type library. As such, this classification was proposed :)

001 - 099 -- Bible Study, Concordance, Commentaries, Topical Studies

101 – 199 -- Living as a Christian (Christian viewpoints, responses), Inspirational

201 – 299 -- Apologetics (Defense of the Faith)

301 – 399 -- Biographies, Auto Biographies, Spiritual Journeys, Testimonies

401 – 499 -- Mission, Evangelism

501 – 599 -- Analogical Stories, Fiction

601 – 699 -- Holy Spirit, Pentecostal, Charismatic, Gifts of the Spirit

701 – 799 -- Church Management

801 – 899 -- Relational, Personal Development
