Ranganathan stuff

Mohamed Taher of the Multifaith Library in Toronto, in response to my transcription of a talk by Ranganathan, links to a list of photos of the great library scientist, and the work of Lennart Björneborn who, among other things, has transposed Ranganathan's Five Laws of Library Science into Five Laws of the Web.

This is great. I think even hardcore Ranganathan fans have only seen the standard one or two images of him. This is really a great resource for making a few good "im in ur catalog faceting ur classifications" stickers.
