SELECT LIST OF WORKS RELATING TO CITY PLANNING 
 AND ALLIED SUBJECTS 
 
 This list of some six hundred titles was prepared in connection with the city- 
 planning exhibition held in the central building of the New York Public Library by 
 the City of New York, November 24-December 7, 1913. 
 
 It is not a bibliography of the subject but rather a selection of the titles most 
 useful to students of this modern problem. In the preparation of this list the 
 Library has had the help and advice of Mr. George B. Ford, secretary of the advisory 
 commission on the exhibition.
