I am in the process of getting approximately 100 sound recordings (music
cd's) cataloged and into our system.  I am slightly baffled with how to
classify sound recordings.  I have examined other collections, and some
libraries use the standard Dewey system (780's) while other libraries use
a combination of letters and numbers.  A few examples of this are:

CD EC MOZA PCN S78  (this is a piano concerto by Mozart)

CD F BEET QS J 68

Can anyone help in deciphering this?  Any suggestions for a useful website
in call number construction for sound recordings using the Dewey system?

I will post a hit if there is enough interest.

Thanks so much,
