Summary/Abstract: The article deals with the issues relating to the systematization and classification of digital learning resources. In particular, the purpose of this paper is to analyze traditional and current classifications of such resources. In accordance with the purpose hierarchical and faceted classifications of digital learning resources are analyzed, their advantages and disadvantages are highlighted. It was found, that the positive aspects of the hierarchical classification are traditionalism and relative simplicity of structure, the negative – its inexhaustibility, ambiguity and rigidity of the scheme, so the method of hierarchy is better applied to objects with relatively stable features. The main advantage of faceted classification is the flexibility of its structure, which causes good adaptability to the changing nature of the issues, which is especially relevant for the classification of digital learning resources, which due to relative novelty and rapid development have not stable features, the very concept of which is constantly clarified and concretized in content and scope.
