415 - LCC browsing

I had forgotten about this - sorry. Leslie Burmeister reminded me that there is a

"more user-friendly way to browse the LC classification schedule online. If you're on Classification Web and are on the Main Menu page, there's a tiny link right below the "main" links ("Browse Classification Schedules, Classification Search, etc) called "Outline." This takes you to the broad A to Z outline of LCC. Each letter is hyperlinked. Selecting H, for example, takes one to an outline of all the subdivisions of Social Sciences. If I then wanted to cruise (the infamous) HD, selecting it would then bring me to all the subclassifications of Industries/Land Use/Labor. Etc etc -- you can continue narrowing once you find the path you think you want to take."

Thanks Leslie!
