The Bliss bibliographic classification (BC) is a library classification system that was created by Henry E. Bliss (1870–1955), published in four volumes between 1940 and 1953. Although originally devised in the United States, it was more commonly adopted by British libraries than by American ones. A second edition of the system (BC2) has been developed in Britain since 1977.

Famous quotes containing the word bliss:
“No other sun has lightened up my heaven,
No other star has ever shone for me;

All my life’s bliss is in the grave with thee.”
