Book excerpt: Excerpt from Index to the Subject Catalogue of Harvard College Library The Subject Catalogue of Harvard College Library may be described as an alphabetical-classed catalogue. As in other classed or systematic catalogues, special subjects are grouped under general heads, but, as in a dictionary catalogue, these general heads are arranged in alphabetical, not systematic order, while the special topics and other subdivisions of these general classes also follow the order of the alphabet. The main headings, about 500 in number and distinguished in the following Index by heavy faced type and in reference by small capitals, are by no means of equal extent or importance in the ground they cover. Some, such as ambergris, automata, coffee-houses, and copying have less than a dozen cards and no subdivisions, while others like agriculture, antiquities, history, or music occupy many drawers of the catalogue and include a large number of subdivisions. The subdivisions or special topics, as has been said, fall in alphabetical order, but it should be noticed that they are frs quently grouped in several different alphabets in order to bring topics of the same character side by side. (see the examples given below.) It is to these subordinate headings in particular that the Index is intended to furnish a clew. To facilitate reference a number has been assigned to each main heading, while each sub-heading (or, in some cases, each alphabetical group of sub-headings) has its special number which follows the number of the main heading in the form of a decimal. These numbers are placed on the outside of the catalogue drawers and on the guide-blocks in the drawers and by means of them reference is made in the Index from each topic to the place or places in the catalogue where it occurs. In order to make clearer the general plan of the catalogue and the use Of these numbers, the various subdivisions of two classes, agriculture and painting, are set forth in order on the next page. A similar conspectus of all the headings and their subdivisions will perhaps be printed at some future time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cornell University Library: Catalogue of the Petrarch Collection The Petrarch collection, when it came to Cornell University in 1905, included a card catalogue of author entries, prepared in greater part in 188 5 - 86 by Mr. Horace Kephart, under Mr. F 1ske 5 direction. Mr. Fiske' s intention to publish a second catalogue of the collection is intimated in the preliminary note to his bibliography of De remea'zzs, printed in 1888 'the essay here attempted is to be regarded as a chapter of the still unprinted second catalogue of my'petrarch collection.' The card catalogue with its ve1y full titles and collations was thus ready to serve as the basis of the work. Of the notes or essays which might have been looked for at intervals upon its pages, had the collector been able at that time to execute his intention, the two (found among his papers) printed as the second appendix of the present catalogue may perhaps be considered specimens. But the new interests of his later years delayed the undertaking until his strength was spent. After the collection reached its final home, Professor H. S. White of Harvard University, literary executor of the Fiske estate, made arrangements for carrying out the delayed project. In 1910 Professor Arthur Livingston was appointed to the task of preparing the catalogue for printing, but relinquished it upon his call to the Faculty of Columbia University in the spring of 1911, when the work was assigned to the present compiler. The preparation of the Dante catalogue by Mr. T. W. Koch, 1896-1900, was carried on in intimate consultation with Mr. F iske. Its plan, while showing cur tailment in certain respects - as in the fullness of title transcription and collation characterizing the Petrarch entries of the card catalogue - was extended to include analytical titles, editor and translator references, etc. Mr. Fiske's approval of this work, and its commendation by students generally, made it seem probable that he would now, have chosen to print a Petrarch catalogue on a similar plan.' This has been done. It was again thought best to include pertinent articles in periodical and general literature in the University library' not in the Fiske collection. Such articles are indicated by a press number lacking the initial Pet', which belongs to those of the collection. Certain differences of detail will be noted by the curious. Titles have been copied at greater length. Names of publishers are given in Part II as well as in Part I. The most important variation is in the expansmn of the subject index to include abbreviated titles. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Harvard College Library: From the Estate of Mrs. Charles Robert Sanger of Cambridge Received February 19, 1936 ON a dark and chilly evening in the last month of the tiyear, a youn portrait-painter named Stanfor was sitting one in the room where he practised his art. An easel was be fore him, and on it was a painting, although so dim was the light shed by a solitary candle from an adjoining table, that it was difficult to distin guish the figures on the canvass. There was a fireplace in the apartment, but it no longer emitted a cheerful warmth, for the last spark upon the hearth-stone had expired, and the air was growing colder and colder.
