Did You Know...

that Class FC, the classification schedule for Canadian history, is now available on the Web?

The second edition of Class FC and its 1995 supplement have been added to the National Library’s Web site in PDF (Portable Document Format) version.

Class FC is widely used in Canadian libraries to classify Canadian history. Although Class FC is designed as an independent schedule for Canadian history, it is meant to be used with the Library of Congress classification schedules. It replaces F1000 to F1140 of the Library of Congress F classification, providing a more detailed classification of Canadian history.

The PDF version of the entire second edition Class FC is available for consultation only on the Web at:
