The methodology used includes a literature review to establish background, followed by the development of a classification scheme by modifying and adding to existing fiction classification categories that only partially suit the purpose of proposed scheme. The paper portrays the structure of the classification scheme, enumerates its classes and sub-classes, assigns to it a suitable notation and lists appropriate examples to illustrate the proposed use of the scheme. The paper refers to user studies of information needs of Humanities scholars, who are the main group of potential users of the scheme, but does not include a user study of the proposed scheme itself. Practical implementations of the work presented in this paper centre upon a model for a classification scheme that covers the intertextual approach, which is a central approach used by scholars of fiction. It gives suggestions for possible implementations of the scheme to suit the information needs of Humanities scholars working in this area. This paper bridges a gap in the research of fiction classification. While fiction classifications for reading for pleasure exist, as well as classifications for scholarly subjects other than fiction, no classification for fiction as a scholarly discipline had been developed. Moreover, previous research had commented upon the need for intertextual approaches to the organization of documentation, and this is the first suggested model for a classification scheme based on the intertextual principle.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0961000607074814","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,3,19]],"date-time":"2007-03-19T04:34:39Z","timestamp":1174278879000},"page":"41-52","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Developing an intertextuality-oriented fiction classification"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"39","author":[{"given":"Anat","family":"Vernitski","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"North Essex Hospitals' Library and Information Service, Colchester General Hospital, Turner Road, Colchester, Essex, CO4 5JL, UK Tel: +44 (0) 1206 742 146, Fax: +44 (0) 1206 742 107;"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2007,3,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"atypb1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1353\/cls.2005.0014"},{"key":"atypb2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4324\/9780203131039"},{"key":"atypb3","first-page":"83","volume-title":"Problemy tvorchestva Dostoevskogo","author":"Bakhtin, M.","year":"1994"},{"key":"atypb4","volume-title":"Biblioteka Ivana Sergeevicha Turgeneva: Chast' 1: Knigi na Russkom Iazyke","author":"Balykova, L.A.","year":"1994"},{"key":"atypb5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5860\/crl_57_06_514"},{"key":"atypb6","volume-title":"Pushkin: A Comparative Commentary","author":"Bayley, J.","year":"1971"},{"key":"atypb7","volume-title":"The Classification of Fiction: The Development of a System Based on Theoretical Principles","author":"Beghtol, C.","year":"1994"},{"key":"atypb8","volume-title":"\u2018Subject Access in British Library Bibliographic Records\u2019","author":"British Library"},{"key":"atypb9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/11551362_20"},{"key":"atypb10","volume-title":"The Penguin Dictionary of Literary Terms and Literary Theory","author":"Cuddon, J.A.","year":"1991","edition":"3"},{"key":"atypb11","volume-title":"Dewey Decimal Classification and Relative Index","author":"Dewey, M.","year":"1959","edition":"8"},{"key":"atypb12","volume-title":"Abridged Dewey Decimal Classification and Relative Index","author":"Dewey, M.","year":"1971"},{"key":"atypb13","volume-title":"e-Business and e-Commerce: How to Program","author":"Dietel, H.M.","year":"2001"},{"key":"atypb14","volume-title":"Art and Architecture Thesaurus On Line","author":"Getty Institute"},{"key":"atypb15","volume-title":"\u2018If You Like...
