Excerpt from Some Aspects of Bibliography The present Address was delivered on vacating the Presidency of the Edinburgh Bibliographical Society, on November 2, 1899. It was after wards revised and condensed in certain parts, and, as an afterthought, the Appendix was added. As stated in the Address itself, the aim I had in view in reading it was to induce members of the Society to execute whatever bibliographical work was at their command. The perusal of it now by others may possibly induce them also to fill up some of the gaps that are all too conspicuous in our bibliography.

Excerpt from Elements of Bibliography Elements and factors - The prime requisite of bibliog raphy is the existence of books A book is any composition recorded on a number of leaves bound together in proper order so as to convey ideas to anyone conversant with the form of composition used. Printing is not essential; neither is publication. In fact, some of the most interesting and valuable books have never been printed or published. These are known as manuscript books or inedita. Large books often appear in more than one volume. Certain small books are called pamphlets - a vague term usually understood to mean a book of less than one hundred pages, unbound, and devoted to some ephemeral subject Periodicals are hybrids among books the typical period ical being a serial publication, the units of which are made up of a number of inseparable pamphlet contributions and which appears at more or less regular intervals throughout the year. Bound volumes of periodicals have always been treated as books; separate copies of a peri odical are not ordinarily looked upon as books, except from the standpoint of manufacture and library circu lation; but the various articles included in a periodical, when considered separately, are rightfully treated as pamphlets. Indeed, many of them are reissued in sepa rate pamphlet form. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from A Bibliography of Unfinished Books in the English Language Of the compilation of Bibliographies there seems no end, yet a century ago the word was an unfamiliar one in the English language. Up to fifty years ago we had examples which are entirely different from those of quite modem workmanship. These early Bibliographies dealt especially with periods of time rather than with subjects, as, for instance, Arber's "Term Catalogues," and Lowndes' " Manual," and Allibone's "Dictionary of Authors." which are scarcely considered Bibliographies at all, as we understand the subject now. To-day we have Bibliographies dealing entirely with a subject, giving in extensive detail a description of all the books relative to that subject - for example, Bigmore and Wyman's "Bibliography of Printing," and Agassiz's "Bibliographia Zoologiae et Geologiae." No book of importance is considered complete now-a-days unless valuable aid is given to the student by the addition of a list of books closely connected with the subject he is studying. He is thus able to pursue his course of reading by reference to these authorities. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from A Bibliography of South America I have divided my subject into two parts the first contains an alphabetically arranged list of authors with only such works as they have written on South America included beneath their names; the second and more im portant part contains a list of all these works re-arranged and classified under their various subject headings so far as my information on their contents is correct. They are also' classified according to their dates of publication so that the order in which books have followed one another in their various sections may be easily noted. This second part includes every book or magazine article in English upon any subject dealing with South America which has come within my view, and includes many items which for want of further information cannot appear in the first part. This work is the result of many searchings into all sorts of odd places and much labour in arranging and re-arranging the titles under their most suitable subject headings, it was first compiled for the purpose of, gaining some idea of the written available knowledge dealing with Argentina but the necessity for taking a broader view of my subject was soon discovered and I had to extend the originally intended Bibliography of Argentina to the more comprehensive title of South America, justifying the change by including an additional collection of titles of works on the other Republics of this Continent.

Excerpt from Essays in Librarianship and Bibliography Recent exploit of the Newbery Library at Chicago, referred to in a note at page 86, which has turned the bewildering multitude of the accession parts of the British Museum Catalogue into a single alphabetical series by simply photographing the titles singly, and then combining the copies in a catalogue. It is quite possible that the enterprise may prove financially unremunerative, but this would not be the case if it had been executed as a portion of the work of a national institution con trolled by the State, which on its part would have been recouped, or nearly so, by the patronage of private customers. It is only necessary to add that the State should on no account seek to make a profit out of photography, and that all transactions between the Museum or any other public depart ment and the nation, where money is concerned, should be conducted on the principle of afford ing the greatest possible public advantage at the smallest possible cost.

Excerpt from A Bibliography of the Spanish Press of California, 1833-1845 The compilation of this bibliography was begun many years ago, during the existence of the various: institutions referred to in these notes, and while their material was yet available for research. The unfortunate destruction in 1906, by fire of many libraries, public and private, has rendered excessively rare the few specimens of these early printed documents that are yet in existence. Libraries which may be mentioned in this connection are the Bohemian Club, Lees, Mercantile library, Society of California Pioneers, and the Archives.

Excerpt from A Bibliography of Dr. Henry Sacheverell The key to the arrangement of each section is chronological, all the issues of a particular year coming together. Within each year the order is alphabetical according to the first word not an article: but works with the author's name precede anonymous ones. Successive editions immediately follow the notice of the first issue, and answers to a work follow the original piece.
