Dewey Decimal System Day, celebrated on December 10th, is all about honoring a special way that libraries organize books. It's like a secret code that helps people find books on the shelves quickly. This system was created by Melvil Dewey, whose birthday is on this day. Each book gets a number based on its subject, so if you know the number, you can easily find books about dinosaurs, space, or your favorite topic. Libraries use this system all over the world, and this day is a fun way to remember how it helps us explore and learn new things!
How to celebrate Dewey Decimal System Day?
On Dewey Decimal System Day, visit your local library and explore different sections using the numbers on the shelves. Play a treasure hunt game by finding books from different categories, like science, history, or fairy tales. Create your own mini-library at home with your books, organizing them by topic. Make fun bookmarks with family and friends, and share stories about your favorite books. Enjoy some quiet reading time with a cozy blanket. Lastly, thank your librarians for keeping the library so awesome and helpful. This special day celebrates the magic of organizing and finding books easily at the library!
