Which sign is used in UDC to agglomerate non-consecutive subjects ?

  • A./ (Stroke)
  • B.+ (Plus)
  • C.( ) (Circular Brackets)
  • D.[ ] (Square Brackets)

Answer: B

UDC agglomerates non-consecutive subjects with + (Plus).

In the Universal Decimal Classification the plus sign joins two or more numbers that are not next to each other in the schedules, to show a document on both subjects, for example 622+669 for mining and metallurgy.

The stroke (/) does the same for consecutive numbers, covering the whole span between them (592/599). Circular brackets enclose common auxiliaries of form, place and so on, and square brackets group numbers in a complex number. Neither expresses an agglomeration of separate subjects.
