Résumé

The possibility of interdisciplinary research through online library catalogues is today a major challenge for knowledge organization. By examining the different approaches used to index documents in integrated library systems, interdisciplinary researchers may find that classifications based on academic disciplines are less appropriate for this type research when compared with phenomenon-based systems. Based on this consideration, the aim of the present paper was to compare two systems having different conceptual structures: the Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC), which is based on an epistemological approach, and the Integrative Levels Classification (ILC), based on an ontological one. We also explored how ILC phenomenon classes can be mapped to corresponding DDC disciplines and how DDC can be used in phenomenon-like ways. This work highlights the importance of future studies in phenomenon-based classification for the development of new indexing schemes and for more powerful applications of already existing disciplinary systems and opens a new way for improvement of interdisciplinary research.
