But Open Library has unlimited categories. Every time you see a book that lacks a word or phrase that would identify a sub or sub sub or sub sub sub category you can just add it.

If you split it like they do. It's about 86 categories. That's not unwieldy as 
one might think better than two or three  sometimes even 400 which I have seen 
in the past in some isolated instances.

Hi all,

RE categories, I, too would like to see some changes in the categories. The 
most important one is to change Science Fiction to include *only* that.  
Fantasy should be its own category.   Also, there should be distinctions 
between history and historical fiction as well as crime and Mystery fiction.  
I'd suggest going to NLS and looking at the categories there.
