User:Jaredscribe/Library Science
This is an essay, a curriculum, and personal wikiproject, like my other wikipages. This wikiproject is a transcendent one, aimed at improving the comprehensive reliability of the public education system, of the average public library, and of wikipedia as a whole, in reverse order. My resume of articles created, translated, improved, or works in progress, is found on my encyclopedic resume on my main user page, and is arranged to describe how I began to realize the design that is stated here. This project design document expands my earlier stated thesis that the fulfillment of the WP:Encyclopedia's mission is itself an act of WP:Righting Great Wrongs, and we should all strive to be complicit in this.

Thomas Jefferson, whose library at Monticello consisted of thousands of books, devised a classification system which grouped books more or less by subject, rather than alphabetically, [1], and provided the start of what became the Library of Congress.[2]
