Carmen Krause<p>Wie an jedem 10. Dezember feiern heute viele <a href="https://openbiblio.social/tags/Bibliotheken" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Bibliotheken</span></a> den <a href="https://openbiblio.social/tags/DeweyDecimalSystemDay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DeweyDecimalSystemDay</span></a>, denn der Begründer der <a href="https://openbiblio.social/tags/DeweyDecimalClassification" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DeweyDecimalClassification</span></a> (<a href="https://openbiblio.social/tags/DDC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DDC</span></a>), Melvil Dewey, wurde am 10.12.1851 geboren. Die DDC ist noch immer die weitverbreitetste Klassifikation weltweit. Doch Melvil Dewey ist auch bekannt für diskriminerendes Verhalten und sexuelle Belästigung (<a href="https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/melvil-deweys-name-stripped-top-library-award-180972514/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/</span><span class="invisible">melvil-deweys-name-stripped-top-library-award-180972514/</span></a>). Sollte man also mitfeiern oder nicht?</p>
