Sinopsis
Excerpt from Manual of Descriptive Annotation for Library Catalogues
The part in square brackets is of doubtful utility, or at least badly expressed. According to this, religion is dis cussed from all standpoints save science, and one may be sure science is covered by the word culture. This enumeration is also responsible for some tautology, for what is the difference between discussing religion bistori cally and discussing it from the standpoint of history? The viewpoint of a writer is only of significance when it gives either a narrower or a clearer survey of a subject.

Excerpt from Manual of Descriptive Annotation for Library Catalogues
It is proposed in the following pages to explain the leading principles of descriptive annotation as applied to books and their cataloguing, and to draw up a code of rules for the application of such principles. Up to the present scarcely any attempt has been made to simplify annotation by formulating an adequate set of rules. It has even been argued that rules are but indifferent aids to the annotator, who must depend on his exact habits, bis grasp of detail, and his literary ability. An argument of this kind is hardly worth considering. Book-cataloguing is the listing of books for convenience in finding them, and the describing of them accurately, and all librarians agree with the late Mr. Cutter in saying that "some of the results of experience may be best indicated by rules" (Rules, 4th ed.. pref.). Book annotation - at any rate descriptive annotation or analysis, as dealt with in these pages - is simply an extension of cataloguing: it is an art truly enough, not a science; but the results of the experience of English and American annotators "may be best indicated by rules." Indeed, wherever good annotative work is done, rules of some kind have either been drawn up on paper, or have been drilled into the heads of annotators by a chief who has mentally formulated them. To this argument, hortation, or literary hot-gospelling, which sometimes takes the place of analysis, is an exception ; so also is evaluation, which can only be attempted by those few men who combine with adequate knowledge, a line critical sense, a judicial temper and catholicity of taste.
