Rese�a del editor

The present publication is not intended to add one to the number, but rather to offer a way of escape for those who shrink from the intricacies and difficulties of the elaborate systems, and to substitute for painstaking analytical classification a simple arrangement which it is believed is better adapted to be practically useful in a library, while doing away with most of the work involved in carrying out one of these schemes. There is a certain fascination in the classifying of books, and many efforts have been made to provide a philosophical basis of classification. In Edwards s Memoirs of Libraries a long chapter is devoted to this subject, treating it historically as well as practically, and a comparative exhibit of thirty-two different schemes of classification is given. Many of these are ingenious, and have been found to work fairly well in practice; but the demands of the modem library call for something different, and much more elaborate schemes have been worked up since the publication of Edwards, E., Memoirs of Libraries London 1859, 2vols. 8vo. The reference is to vol. 2, pp. 759-831.
