The automatic classification of library document by using the computer is still far away from being implementation. But, the emergence of web and merging of different databases of different libraries paved a new way for classification of library document. The study only includes the web tools that can be used freely or does not required user to “Sign Up” or “Log in”. Sometime, some search in such database or tools will produce null results. In such cases, the classifier should turn his hand to the next option available. In case of doubt of the validity of the classification number obtained from the online tools, the classifier should verify the number by using the original DDC scheme. This paper will depicts such online tools that can be used for classification of the library document with efficiency.
