Therefore, this article presents a brief historical context about libraries, the methodology applied is quantitative-qualitative, documentary and descriptive regarding the Dewey Decimal Classification-CDD and the Universal Decimal Classification – CDU, which are the main points of the work. Therefore, its general objective is to analyze the curricular components of PPCs that cover content on the Dewey Decimal Classification-CDD and the Universal Decimal Classification - CDU of Library Science Courses at Federal Universities in the Northeast Region. To collect and interpret the research data, characterized as documentary, with a qualitative-quantitative approach, the following indicators were used: content, workload, number of credits, offer periods, nomenclatures. In view of these surveys, divergences were found related to working hours, the period in which they are offered, and the nomenclature of the criteria established in the analysis. It is concluded that the courses studied here cover content on CDD and CDU, some in a more incisive way, starting with the workloads adopted, others in a more superficial way, in addition to the differences in the nomenclature adopted
