With a very few exceptions, to be mentioned later, it includes no works earlier than 1904, the date of the original Catalog, and less than a half dozen 1912 works, which have been added where there existed no book of earlier date that was equally good. The general plan of the Catalog and the routine of cooperation in the selection of titles practically coincide with those of the original work (see p. 6, 8 of Editorial preface to Class list) except that the whole routine, from the preliminary selection to the final preparation for printing, has remained in the hands of one person. The list of cooperating librarians and experts has been much less extensive, owing to the fact that in the A. L. A. Booklist the editor had at hand a body of titles, covering nearly the whole period, which had already had the benefit of a certain amount of cooperative opinion. All titles have been submitted to the publishers for latest information, so that the list should be dependable for prices. As a result of this examination by publishers a considerable number of useful works have had to be rejected because out of print, but, as a whole, the Catalog has suffered less in this respect than the 1904 publica- tion did. Classification. The sixth edition (1899) of the Decimal Classification has been followed. This decision was made on the understanding that the smaller libraries had not to any extent adopted the seventh edition. It is to be hoped that when the revision of the 1904 Catalog is undertaken there may be at hand a complete revised edition of the "D. C." simplified for the requirements of the smaller libraries. The larger libraries which have adopted the new edition need no help in classification. Titles have been more minutely classified than the small library practice demands, for two reasons: (1) the closer classification makes the list of greater value for reference purposes; (2) the majority of libraries using the Catalog subdivide more closely than the small library and it is a simpler matter to reduce a number than to expand it. Subject headings. The addition of subject headings (not given in the Class list of the 1904 Catalog) was determined on before the decision to print only a class list was made. It has been a frequent request from the librarians of smaller .li- braries, who need help in this matter and who found it difficult to find the headings chosen for the Dictionary list in the 1904 Catalog. The new edition of the List of siiiject headings has been followed, with some additions. It is quite possible that not as many headings are suggested as many libraries use, an effort having been made to follow a medium course between the duplication and very full analysis that only the very small library can afford and the briefer entry of the large library, . with its elaborate cross reference system. Where the subjects of analytics are easily ascertainable, they are only recommended. Neither the classification nor sug- (5) 6 A. L. A. CATALOG, 1904-11 gestions for headings should be taken too seriously. There are many books which can be classed with perfect consistency in any one of three or four places. The li- brarian alone can decide which is the proper place in her library. The same can be said of the choice of subject headings. Notes. In quoting notes the phraseology has been freely changed for the sake of brevity, and no attempt has been made to indicate omissions. Proportion by subject. While in the beginning the attempt was made to adhere fairly closely to the proportion of titles to each subject given in the 1904 Catalog, it was found impossible to do so without impairing the usefulness of the list. The output of books in the subjects grouped under Sociology has been so great, and the demand for them so heavy, that it seemed better to include a larger number than was originally planned rather than risk weakening the usefulness of the section. The greatest increase has been in Useful Arts, and this was intentional, since there is no division where the average librarian is more in need of help, nor where it is more difficult to find the "best book" on short notice. The proportions for the 1904 and the present Catalog are printed here for ease of comparison. 1904 1904.-1911 Per cent Volumes Per cent Yolumes 1.9 148 1.88 56 General works including bibliography 1.9 143 . 2.52 75 Philosophy 4.2 319 4.6 137 Religion 8 604 10.28 306 Sociology 1.6 123 .77 23 Language 6.2 471 5.4 152 Natural science 6 453 10.8 322 Useful arts 4.7 354 7.56 225 Pine arts including music and sports 13.4 1001 7.4 221 Literature 16.3 1226 10.8 322 Piction 13.3 973 7.19 214 History 9.1 685 10.28 306 Travel 13.5 1020 10.2 244 Biography • 12.5 372 Children 's 100.1 7520 101 2975 In the 1904 Catalog the children's books were included in the main list. The num- ber of volumes cited for this Catalog does not include titles mentioned in the notes. Special lists. Two special lists are incorporated in the Catalog, both in answer to definite requests. One is a selection of about 50 titles of religious books specially chosen for Catholic readers. Two preliminary selections were made, one by an as- sistant in the St. Louis Public Library at the request of the librarian, Dr A. E. Bostwick, and the second by Rev. W. J. McMuUen of Pittsburgh, at the request of the librarian of the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh, Mr H. Wj. Graver. Both lists were then incorporated into a much more extensive one, covering all subjects, compiled by Mr William Stetson Merrill, of the Newberry Library. The final selection, limited with a few exceptions to religious books, was submitted to Archbishop Ireland, and at his request was examined by the Reverend J. A. Ryan, of the St. Paul Seminary, St. Paul, Minn. PREFACE 7 The second list consists of about 50 titles of modern drama and books about it. It was impossible to get any unanimity of opinion on such a brief selection and the editor is aware that it will satisfy a very small proportion of libraries. It is allowed to stand, however, for the assistance it may give to the perplexed librarian of the smaller library. In most libraries the selection in this subject must be based largely on the local demand, and if activity in play- writing and reading continues to incrpase as rapidly as in the last two years the problem of selection bids fair to rival that of fiction. Selection. It is hardly to be imagined that any one ever prepared a list of this character and extent without wishing to ask the indulgence of possible critics and to explain why it is so much farther from perfection than it was expected to be. It seems a fairly simple task to select 3000 titles from the books published in eight years, but a list based on the cooperation of about 75 librarians and 100 experts, all fully engaged with their own work, and selected, edited and prepared for printing in intervals of work having a prior claim, is bound to progress but slowly and to suffer many changes of fortune. One needs to have been this sort of clearing house of opinion but once to realize how far apart our libraries are in the matter of book selection. In many cases what is one library's meat seems to be another's poison, and one soon reaches the conviction that there are no "best books" on any subject for a library of any size— if librarians alone are to be consulted. Happily, pro- fessors, special students and experts in general are less at variance. It is only fair to say that the Fiction and Children's lists represent librarians' votes only. It is to be doubted if the Fiction, at least, would have retained the proper amount ot" "light reading" if it had passed through the hands of literature professors. If it does not prove a good "working" selection the editor will be greatly disappointed, for it was on that ground alone that many titles escaped the deleting pencil. Acknowledgments. First the editor washes to express her gratitude to the men and women who, without the special interest to be expected of librarians, gave of their valuable time — some of them with great generosity— in order to perfect the selection in their special subjects. That not all the titles recommended are included, nor all the titles receiving adverse criticism thrown out, does not argue that their opinions were not seriously considered, but is due to the many limitations of such a list — in number of titles, date, expense, availability, degree of difficulty or special nature of the books.

Virgin, librarian of General Theological Seminary, New York, and Mr A. C. Zenos, librarian of McCormick Theological Semi- nary, Chicago, for criticism of the titles in Religion, and Mr W. S. Merrill, head, classifier of the Newberry Library, Chicago, for assistance in the selection of Catholic books; Miss Elizabeth Baldwin, librarian of Teachers College, New York, and Miss Irene Warren, librarian of the School of Education of the University of Chicago, who criticized the books on Education; Miss 0. M. Imhoff, of the Legislative Reference Department of the Wisconsin Library Commission, for aid in the selection of titles in Sociology and Government; Mr E. H. McClelland, technology librarian of the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh, and Mr E. D. Tweedell, reference librarian of the John" Crerar Library, Chicago, who gave very generously of their time to the selec- tion in Science and Useful arts ; Mr G. W. Lee, librarian of Stone & Webster, Boston, and Miss L. B. Krause, librarian of H. M. Byllesby & Co., Chicago, for criticism of Engineering works; Miss C. R. Barnett, librarian of the U. S. Department of Agriculture, and Mr Clarence Hean, librarian of the College of Agriculture Library of the University of Wisconsin, for criticism of Agriculture titles ; Mr E. R. Smith, librarian of the Avery Architectural Library of Columbia University, and Miss Katharine Patten, librarian of the Minneapolis Athenaeum, for criticism of the Fine. PREFACE 9 arts list; Miss L. M. Hooper, librarian of the Brookline (Mass.) Public Library, for criticism of the Music list; Dr R. G. Thwaites, director of the State Historical So- ciety of "Wisconsin, for criticism of the titles in American history and travel; Dr B. C. Steiner, librarian of Enoch Pratt Free Library, for criticism of the titles in American history and biography. Acknowledgment is made of the services of the Annotation Section of the New York State Library, and especially of its head. Miss M. T. Wheeler, in selecting and mounting titles of current works to be used as a basis for the proposed supplement to the 1904 Catalog, from the time of the publication of that work to the summer of 1909, when with the decision to have- the later catalog prepared directly under the auspices of the A. L. A. Publishing Board, this valuable material was transferred to the editor. Of even greater assistance have been the files of the annual Best hooks lists, which have been drawn on very considerably for notes. To Mrs H. L. Elmendorf, vice-librarian of the Buffalo Public Library and presi- dent of the American Library Association, appointed from the A. L. A. Publishing Board as the committee of one to whom all questions of policy and details of execu- tion could be submitted, grateful recognition is made for the willingness and prompt- ness with which she has met all requests for advice or assistance. Gratitude is also due to the three regular assistants of the A. L. A. Booklist staff, to whom for some portion of each month during the past year this Catalog has meant an extra burden, to be met only by additional hours of work. Elva L.
