Greetings, I'm working with the Dewey Decimal classification system and am wondering several things: 1. Is there a way to indicate this on types (Books or otherwise)? I don't directly see anything on https://schema.org/Book 2. When I use Google to search for "schema.org and Dewey Decimal classification" the AI based results suggest the quoted text below. 3. I failed to find the property "libraryClassification" (mentioned in the Google AI results) in the schema.org documentation. Is this me, the documentation, or an AI hallucination? 4. On the page for Book example 4 in the JSON+LD view has a property labeled "sku". The content of this field is not a sku but rather a Library of Congress Classification Number. It seems poor form to put an LCCN in the SKU field, but maybe someone can enlighten me on some of the conceptualization around the usage of SKU and its range of applicability. Kind regards, Hugh ``` In Schema.org, the Dewey Decimal System is represented by the property "libraryClassification" with the value "Dewey Decimal Classification" which indicates that a book or other item is classified using the Dewey Decimal system, allowing for easier search and organization based on its subject matter across different libraries and platforms. Key points about the Dewey Decimal System in Schema.org: - *Purpose:* To specify the classification system used for a library item, allowing search engines and other applications to understand how a book is categorized based on its topic. - *Value:* "Dewey Decimal Classification" is the text value used to denote that the Dewey Decimal System is the classification method. - *Usage:* You would typically include this property within the "Item" or "Book" schema type when describing a library item in structured data. Example Schema.org code with Dewey Decimal Classification: Code { "@context": "http://schema.org/", "@type": "Book", "name": "The History of the United States", "author": "John Smith", "libraryClassification": "Dewey Decimal Classification" } ```
