CODOC

CODOC is a system of library classification developed at the University of Guelph in the 1960s and 1970s. CODOC is a syllabic abbreviation formed from the words cooperative documents.[1] Unlike Library of Congress Classification, Dewey Decimal Classification, or Universal Decimal Classification, CODOC is not a universal system. Rather, it is intended for use only with government publications. Like many other schemes intended to classify government publications, such as SuDocs, CODOC arranges materials by creator, rather than by subject.[2]: 95
