btw
Any librarians here who know whether holy books are filed in fiction or non-fiction?

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.
