Cataloging: Cuttering resources

I put this together for someone else and thought I would share it with you too! ________________________________________
cutter tables at

and the cataloging calculator is a pretty nifty tool:

This is a good overall resource:

One of the main things to be aware of in cuttering, is the local shelflist. ;-)

As for creating call numbers, for us that would be LC classification, so there is the subject analysis part to get the class and then the cutter. LCSH can be browsed via this list

I'm not sure how detailed it is, but it seems like a good overall tool.
