AFU’s (Archives For the Unexplained) PhenCode

 

Anders Liljegren (co-founder, board member, administrative manager and archivist at AFU) … has designed and continues to develop the PhenCode classification for the AFU library (previously called UfoCode).

Here’s a download of AFU Library Book List 2013 (1.185 pages): AFU Library Book List 2013

Each book is classified according to PhenCode, a mnemo-technical classification scheme devised by AFU since 1983, first thirty years under the name UfoCode, but now renamed due to the broadened scope of the library and the AFU foundation. PhenCode helps the guest researcher to immediately find relevant literature in any of more than 700 subject areas.

A list of all PhenCodes (including an alpha list for all covered subjects) will be published in 2013-2014 when all on-going revisions have been completed.

The ‘Main’ book library holds books and media on ufology & ufo contacts (PhenCodes U = ufology by country/themes, G = very general books on ufology, and C = ufo contacts), but also ancient cultures (A), fortean subjects (F), natural sciences (N) science fiction (S) and various (V).

The Hilary Evans library holds our collections of literature in the areas of behavioural sciences (B), mythology and folklore (M), parapsychology, theosophy & the occult (P) and religion, cults & religious phenomena (R). This library facilitiy is dedicated to British author Hilary Evans (1929-2011) who donated his world-renowned collection of ‘phenomena literature’ to us. So far (August 2013) some 4.500 unique titles have been catalogued from his collection. We expect that the Evans library will be fully catalogued by 2014.
