Dewey Classification Question?

Dewey Classification Question I have a question about the Dewey Classification System we use in our library. I have researched the question on the Internet, with our librarians and in several reference books, but I have been unable to find a suitable answer. Hopefully you will be able to shed some light on this matter, or perhaps point me in another direction.My question is not about the numerals used in the Dewey Classification, but the letters used afterwards.

Here is an example of the Dewey Classification we use for: The Iceman Cometh : a play / Eugene O'Neill.812.5 One To complicate matters further our library is part of a 47+ library consortium. Here are some example of the Dewey Classification variations for: The Iceman Cometh : a play / Eugene O'Neill throughout our system.808 O'Ne 808 O'Ne 812.5 ONe 812.5 ONe 812.52 O'N 812 ONeill As you can see, there are many different formats being used for the letters following the Dewey Classification. Any ideas?
