Book Supplement to the List of Serials in Public Libraries of Chicago and Evanston  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Supplement to the List of Serials in Public Libraries of Chicago and Evanston Classic Reprint written by John Crerar Library and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-16 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Supplement to the List of Serials in Public Libraries of Chicago and Evanston One change in the method of entry has been made by unanimous consent of the larger libraries. The entry of foreign serials having individual titles under the society has proved so inconvenient that such serials are now entered under the title, in accordance with the rule for American and English publications. Reference has been made from the societies in all cases where their agency is known. References are made also from the place of location of a society to the name of the society, unless the reference occurs in the original list. The changes in form of entry are very few. One or two minor changes have been made to secure greater clearness, and the capitalization has been altered to agree with the practice of The John Crerar Library. The alphabetical arrangement of foreign and English compound words has been made uniform. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The John Crerar Library: Supplement to the List of Serials in Public Libraries of Chicago and Evanston, Corrected to April, 1903 When the List of Serials in Public Libraries of Chicago and Evanston was published by the Chicago Library Club in 1901 the statement was made that The John Crerar Library proposed, if it proved to be of real service, to issue cumulative supplements. The present volume is the first of these supplements. The justification of its publication would seem to be ample because of the proved usefulness of the original not only for the purpose for which it was compiled, in giving a scholar information where a given volume of a serial can be consulted most conveniently, but also, and somewhat unexpectedly, as a convenience in the administration of the libraries. In one library, at least, the original has been referred to constantly as the most convenient source of information in regard to its own sets. If it has been so used in other libraries to anything like the same extent it has been no inconsiderable factor in the improvement of the sets which is noted in this supplement, and the Chicago Library Club may well be congratulated on the success of its undertaking. Another proof may be found in the readiness with which the libraries have furnished material for the supplement. Only one, St. Ignatius College, has not done so. It has been prevented by a change of librarians and the recataloguing of its library, and it hopes to be able to join in the next revision. On the other hand, the Chicago Historical Society, which was unable to furnish material for the original list, has done so for the supplement, thus materially enhancing its value and broadening its scope. This volume should be consulted first in all cases, even when reference to the desired title from an older form or from the society publishing it, or to the desired society from a place, is found only in the original list. For reprinted titles all the entries have been reprinted so that it is unnecessary to consult the original for a title in the supplement. On the other hand, no titles have been reprinted except to give additional information or to correct errors of some importance, so that the entries for one publication of a society may be found in the supplement and for another in the original list. The supplement, like the original list, is intended to include all serials not purely administrative, of which a library has (1) five volumes or years in sequence; (2) one-half of the set if less than ten volumes or years; (3) the first or last volume if not in any other library. There have been included, also, though somewhat incompletely, all state documents and the publications of all Chicago societies and institutions, whether administrative or not. One change in the method of entry has been made by unanimous consent of the larger libraries. The entry of foreign serials having individual titles under the society has proved so inconvenient that such serials arc now entered under the title, in accordance with the rule for American and English publications. Reference has been made from the societies in all cases where their agency is known. References are made also from the place of location of a society to the name of the society unless the reference occurs in the original list. The changes of form of entry are very few. One or two minor changes have been made to secure greater clearness, and the capitalization has been altered to agree with the practice of The John Crerar Library. There are in the supplement the titles of 4,060 serials and 440 references. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: A classic, smart comedy in which a college professor attains mankind's oldest dream: the ability to fly...sort of... George Entmen just turned forty, and he can't complain. He is a respected hermeneutics professor, beloved by friends and family, and ready to drift quietly into tenured middle age. But then, he discovers he can fly. Sure, he can only fly very, very slowly, and he only flies three or four inches above the ground . . . But why does this nonetheless amazing phenomenon drive so many people into a rage? Why do he and his family find themselves dodging livid magicians, scheming billionairesses, and, perhaps worst of all, angry hermeneuticians? Beneath all the chaos, his gift has to have a meaning. But to find it, George needs to understand one thing his friend and guru keeps telling him: "You're not flying, you're being flown."
