- Sharding

Telephone and call-number systems: area codes and exchanges route a call by dialed digits; Dewey and Library of Congress classifications shard a collection by call number.
This sourceDewey Decimal and Library of Congress classifications assign each work a call number partitioning a collection by subject — a stable key-to-location partition; telephone area codes/exchanges route a call by dialed digits in the same partition-by-key manner.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
