Remember that if more than one applies, you may list multiple codes. Consider the intent of the work, and the system's definitions of the code usage. While the definitions are not explained in detail on the website, a little extra research might get you zeroed-in on the appropriate use. Librarians are always a good choice to ask for advice as well.

I have looked through the codes and can't find a suitable one. I had a 2007 list. Is a new one out? Any ideas?
