Who was Melvil Dewey? Learn how Dewey's love of organization and
words drove him to develop and implement his Dewey Decimal system,
leaving a significant and lasting impact in libraries across the
country. When Melvil Dewey realized every library organized their
books differently, he wondered if he could invent a system all
libraries could use to organize them efficiently. A rat-a-tat
speaker, Melvil was a persistent (and noisy) advocate for free
public libraries. And while he made enemies along the way as he
pushed for changes-like his battle to establish the first library
school with women as students, through it all he was EFFICIENT,
INVENTIVE, and often ANNOYING as he made big changes in the world
of public libraries-changes still found in the libraries of today!
