My impression is that the OP wants to file personal documents. It's not obvious to me how would one would use DDN numbers or LCC codes to classify Utility Bills, Tax Returns, Investment Portfolio records, Bank Loan Agreements, Insurance Policies, Wills, Marriage Certificates, Correspondence with Family and Friends, etc.
I worked in Due Diligence teams on a few multi-national M&A deals. Don't recall any documents having Dewey Decimal or US Library of Congress classifications; if they did we didn't make any use oif them. IIRC the financial and legal documents were organised according to regulations in force at the time and place the document was issued, or the rules as set down by the relevant internal auditors.
BTW TLA's don't mean the same thing to everyone. Initially I wondered if 'LCC' had something to do with the City of London Corporation. When that drew a blank, I went to WikiP. I guess you're referring to the United States
