Sažetak

The article describes the application of UDC in school libraries for different types of material (book and non-book) and for different collection management purposes (shelf arrangement and content indexing). The authors suggest the suitablity of UDC for both pupil and staff collections. They emphasised that the advantages of UDC for use in school libraries are in its balance between stability and keeping up-to-date with developments in science. They find that the flexible faceted structure of UDC, which allows for more detailed indexing and versatile application in different types of collections, is also very important. The article provides examples of UDC use in call numbers for the purpose of shelf-arrangment and examples of more detailed content indexing typical for school libraries.
