I'm SO OLD (😁), that I remember being directed to a wooden file cabinet to find a card...to find a book I was looking for.

@Piper When I was in college, the school library was doing a "re-cataloguing" of everything, from the Dewey Decimal system to the Library of Congress Classification (LCC) system -- letters AND numbers with dots!
BTW, although older versions of the Dewey system are copyright free, the newer versions & associated terminology are copyrighted! That's a big motivation for libraries to dump Dewey and use the free LCC system.
