S. R. Ranganathan Classification:ย Based on the physical characteristics of documents S. R. Ranganathan classified documentary sources of information into four categories. These also reflect the chronological order of their development. They are:

i) Conventional:ย Books, periodicals, Map etc.;

ii) Neo Conventional:ย Standards, specification, patent etc.;

iii) Non Conventional:ย Audio visual, microcopy etc.;

iv) Metaย Document:ย Direct records unmediated by human mind.
