Abstract:
The need for developing the basic tools
for documentation services, especially the design of depth schedules for classification,
by the various documentation centres themselves, is discussed. The work analysis and the time required for the design of depth schedule is
illustrated with a case study .
It is suggested
that it is much more helpful for the various
documentation centres to design the depth
schedules r a t h e r than to depend en one or two
research institutions .
Therefore, it is
proposed that a draft plan for library and
documentation systems should make provision
for developmental research in the field of
library and information science.
