Thursdays with Theodore, Episode 3/1/07

Dear Readers,

Welcome to this week's episode of "Thursdays with Theodore!" To the mail bag . . .

Does the Dewey Decimal System assign numbers to fictional books?

Jack X


Jack X, this is certainly a different question. The answer, though, is yes. If Dewey Decimal System rules are observed, American fiction is classified under the number "813." Many libraries choose to have a separate fiction section because of the space this would take up in the 800's, but technically, yes, the Dewey Decimal System does assign numbers to fictional books.

Among those fictional books would be any that denigrate our divinely-inspired President.

Dear readers, thank you for loving America!

-Theodore Trumblebunks, I, Esq.
