Classification Research Group (CRG) was formed in :

  • A.India
  • B.Great Britain
  • C.USA
  • D.Germany

Answer: B

The Classification Research Group was formed in Great Britain.

The CRG was founded in London in 1952 by British librarians and documentalists, among them B.C. Vickery, D.J. Foskett, Jack Mills and B.I. Palmer. It took up Ranganathan's facet analysis and argued, in its 1955 memorandum, that facet analysis is the basis of all classification. Its work led to faceted special schemes and to the second edition of Bliss (BC2).

Although the faceted ideas it developed came from India, the Group itself was British. It had no American or German counterpart under that name, so the other options are wrong.
