Imagine a world where everyone is so familiar with the Dewey Decimal system that fitting in to a library could be as easy as fitting as a bagger at a grocery store. That library science was as commonplace as knowing how to make a gin and tonic. Wait staff now pivots to late-night librarian. 😁

I'm guessing there's people out there who hear Dewey Decimal and get hit with childhood trauma. But yeah, navigating a library should intuitive and effortless.

I've been converting my personal ebook collection to BISAC that one is pretty easy to figure out.

This is pretty cool, if I had enough books I'd probably try using it too!
