Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Catalogue of Books Placed in the Galleries in the Reading Room of the British Museum The present collection is not to be regarded as a Library of Refer ence. The chief object in forming it has been to bring together in a convenient position the books in general demand, and thus to save time in supplying books to the readers. Many books therefore which would not otherwise have found a place in it have been included, because they were found to. He often asked for, and others because they form parts of collections, desirable as a Whole, from which it was impossible to separate them.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from List of the Books of Reference in the Reading Room of the British Museum The first edition of this List or Brief Catalogue of the Books of Reference in the Reading Room, consisting of nearly volumes, was published in 1859, the second in 1871. Since the latter date frequent improvements have been effected by the introduction of new works and of new editions, whenever these presented any advantage over those previously placed in the Room. For the present issue'a new Plan has been prepared, and a Postscript added to the original Preface of Mr. Winter Jones, in which the history of the Reading Room is continued to the present year. The Subject Index, which in former editions consisted solely of references to the names of authors, now gives the short-title and press-mark of every book indexed, and in its present greatly extended form it is hoped that it may be found useful to Readers. It should be stated that since the last edition of this List was issued a fresh selection has been made of nearly books constantly in demand, and that these have been placed in the Lower Gallery of the Reading Room, where they are at all times easily accessible to Readers. Many books which may be _missed from the Reference Library have, for various reasons, chiefly from considera tions of space, been placed in the Gallery, and neither collection can be regarded \as quite complete without the other. A Catalogue of the collection in the Lower Gallery, drawn up by the late Mr. G. W. Porter, by whom the books were selected, was published in 1880.
