    Any librarians here who know whether holy books are filed in fiction or non-fiction?
    I'm just guessing, but I would think all religious books are filed in Religion, with some also found in Reference.

    (from Wikipedia)
    Dewey Decimal Classification**
    Classes
    000 – Computer science, Library and Information science & general work
    100 – Philosophy and psychology
    200 – Religion
    300 – Social sciences
    400 – Language
    500 – Science
    600 – Technology
    700 – Arts
    800 – Literature
    900 – History, geography & biography

    **Damn British Wikipedia... in the US, this is known as the Dewey Decimal System, which unfortunately redirects to this entry. They both have the same Classes for numbering.

    As you can see, there is no Fiction or Non-Fiction Class, they are subclasses under Literature.

    20. Really weak start. "In the beginning".....? That's worse than "It was a dark and stormy night."
