Hello! I didn't receive many responses; it seems others are also asking this same question. All of the responses received had this information from the DDC: 793.7 (Games not characterized by action) 793.735 (Riddles) 815 (Speeches - would telling a joke be defined as a speech?) 818 (Miscellaneous writings) When I was cataloguing everything from scratch, I would just give all jokes and riddles the 793.7 designation. Now that I look at Loc.gov frequently, I have been using what is posted there. Anyone have an authoritative opinion on whether it would be _wrong_ to keep putting all jokes in 793.7? I think it will be easier for the kids. Thanks to everyone who helped!
