In my Middle School Library, we have, for example, books on Mexico in the
917.2s and then more books on Mexico in the 972s. The same is true for other
countries in our collection and for the U.S. states. I cannot see for the
life of me see why one book would be given one number and a nearly identical
book given a different number.

Could someone please explain this to me? Do any of you just put all your
country books together under one number - say 970s?

Thank you in advance.
