She took over the 11th edition after the death May Seymour, but the first full edition that she issued was the 12th. This edition was 25% larger than the previous edition, and was well received. The 13th edition published in 1932, edited by Fellows, grew again by one-third, adding over four hundred pages and bringing the printed classification to 1,647 pages.Fellows embraced Melvil Dewey's spelling reform, and continued to published the classification using the reformed spelling standard. Letters sent between Fellows and Dewey were written in an even further reduced shorthand, such as:"d n order paper. I l get tt i tym.

Shortly afterward, Decimal Classification numbers began appearing on the Library of Congress cataloging cards that were sold to thousands of libraries for use in their catalogs.She died in 1938, while still working on the 14th edition of the classification.".
