| By default, VuFind is configured to support LC call numbers. Dewey Decimal support was added in version 1.0. The notes below assume you are using a version capable of supporting Dewey Decimal. | By default, VuFind® is configured to support LC call numbers, but Dewey Decimal support can be enabled if needed. |

| To add Dewey call numbers to your index, uncomment the Dewey-related lines in import/marc_local.properties under your VuFind installation. By default, VuFind expects to find Dewey numbers in the 082 and 083 MARC fields. You may need to adjust the process that exports records from your ILS to populate these fields (see [[indexing:marc:export_notes|MARC Export Notes]] for advice on exporting records). Alternatively, if your call numbers are in a different MARC field, you may have to adjust the field specification in marc_local.properties; see the [[indexing:solrmarc#customizing_import_mappings|SolrMarc Notes]] for more details. | To add Dewey call numbers to your index, uncomment the Dewey-related lines in import/marc_local.properties under your VuFind® installation.

| In [[configuration:files:config.ini]], there is a [Browse] section which controls VuFind's browse module. Set "dewey" to true in order to enable a Dewey call number browse. You may also want to disable the "lcc" setting to turn off LC call number support at this time, though you do not have to. | In [[configuration:files:config.ini]], there is a [Browse] section which controls VuFind®'s browse module.
