• Do you have something to say about classification?
• Have you inherited an in-house classification scheme that you love/hate?
• Have you had to reclassify a library or collection, or are thinking of embarking on a reclassification project in the future?
• What do you wish you had learnt about classification when you studied LIS or what professional training in classification would you like to be available?
• Have you been to an interesting classification event recently or encountered a good classification book?
• Have you designed your own classification scheme?
• Do you use multiple classification schemes in your library and want to share your experiences of these?
• Have you got some interesting experiences of making your classification more localised or more standardised?
• How do you think your library users utilise your classification?
• Do you have any thoughts about unethical classification and problematic terminology or structures?
