THE CACHE IS NOT LOCATED AT THE ABOVE COORDINATES.

A good friend of mine (trail reader in California) thought that it would be fun to combine the indoors of the library with the outdoors of geocaching. So, I'm bringing her puzzle here to the midwest. Welcome to her world!

The Dewey Decimal Classification System (DDC) was invented by Melvil Dewey. The DDC categorizes nonfiction books by subject matter into ten main divisions which are then further divided into ten subdivisions. The longer the Dewey number, the more specific the subject matter of the book. The DDC is the most widely used classification system in the world--found in libraries in over 100 countries and translated into over 30 languages.

This is the first in a series of Dewey puzzles I'm creating to honor the cache owners of the Omaha area. Do we know these people personally? Probably not. However, we have come to know them by their hides--the type, the container, the placement, the difficulty, etc. For example, most cachers here would agree that I have a fondness for light skirts!

Geocaching is a give-and-take activity and we all depend on the time, energy, and creativity of cache owners to keep our sport alive. If you have not yet hidden a cache, please consider doing so. To those of you who have, thank you!

TeamDAAK is an intense energetic fellow. He is always helpful and a very agile climber. He seems to like the local artwork and fable creatures. TeamDAAK likes to change it up and make difficult to easy caches for us to find. Cachers are rewarded with a wide variety of creative caches and containers.

In order to solve this puzzle, you do not need to know TeamDAAK. But, by simply using his hide titles, determine the correct coordinates for the cache by classifying each subject in the DDC.
