Section Two, Part 2: LC Classification  
Additions and Changes, B-BX 

compiled by Eric Friede 
 
The entries in this list were selected from the Library of Congress, Cataloging Policy and Standards 
Division’s Library of Congress Classification Weekly List, 22(2011:July 18) to 24(2011:September 19). 
 
The lists of additions and changes to the Library of Congress Classification are posted on the LC 
Cataloging and Acquisitions Web site as they are approved monthly. 
 
The lists are at: http://www.loc.gov/aba/cataloging/classification/weeklylists/  
 
The class letter identifies the schedule to which changes and additions are made. New captions are 
accompanied by a full hierarchy as necessary; changes are indicated by a cancelled line and the 
addition of a new line. Changes are also highlighted in gray. Numbers that appear in square brackets 
are not printed in the printed editions of the classification schedules. They are shown on this list only 
to indicate the location of the corresponding caption or reference within the classification. 
 
This list also includes selected changes and additions outside the B-BX classes relating to religious 
topics or library science.
