Abstract: The paper presents the results of five years of application of Colon Classification (CC), 6. ed., in the Library of the Natural History Museum of Udine, Italy. Research confirms that CC still presents those positive characteristics that gave fame to it. The paper compares CC and the Dewey Decimal Classification by means of a special indicator (resolution power), and it shows how the use of CC could greatly help Italian cataloguers using Nuovo Soggettario, the new thesaurus developed and used at the Biblioteca Centrale Nazionale di Firenze, where Bibliografia Nazionale Italiana is also produced. Use of CC6 during these five years demonstrated that a faceted classification offers great advantages in organizing documents in a modern library, even if CC is surely in need of updating and revision.
