Classification of Ancient Books and Academic Evolution——A Brief Comment on the Taxonomy of Eight-Branch of Bao Chun Tang Cang Shu Lu

朱文藻编著的《葆醇堂藏书录》采用"经、艺、史、志、子、集、类、说"八分法,试图打破四部分类框架。他整合小类设立艺部,把志部、类部、说部提升为一级类目,调整部分二、三级类目的划分、名称和顺序,对类书的性质和丛书的价值做出新认识,反映出以小学、金石学、舆地之学等为代表的乾嘉学术风貌。《葆醇堂藏书录》本着灵活变通的编目原则,力求突破四分法的桎梏,在图书分类上体现学术发展,是古籍目录辨章学术、考镜源流的积极尝试。
