Excerpt from Suggestive Outlines and Methods for Teaching the Use of the Library: A Guide for the Use of Librarians Giving Instruction to High School Students
General Considerations. In planning a course on the use of the library, it is necessary to keep its object clearly in mind. This object, which the foregoing observations imply, is not to create amateur librarians nor complete reference workers, but simply to make intelligent users of libraries with special reference to the needs of the high school stu dent. In carrying out this object there are certain practical problems of instruction to be solved. Appropriate subject matter first of all must be selected. It must then be presented in such order, at such times, and by such methods as will contribute most effectively to the formation by the pupil of useful library habits.
Subject Matter. It is not hard to indicate in a general way the outline of a suitable course. Leading subjects which have been recognized as desirable for inclusion are the physical care of books, the printed parts of a book, the arrangement of books in libraries, the card catalogue, reference books with especial attention to the unabridged dictionary, magazines and magazine indexes, and the use of the library as a whole, including the making of working bibliographies and the use of the library in debating.
These subjects, it will be observed, deal with means and methods of investigation and must form the backbone of a course in the use of a library. Among them should be noted as fundamental, for reasons explained in detail hereafter, the use of the ordinary book and of the dictionary. Since frequent contact with the right kind of literature should lead many pupils to wish to own books, a lesson of simple, prac tical suggestions on book buying for the individual also has a claim to inclusion in the course.

Excerpt from Suggestive Outlines and Methods for Teaching the Use of the Library: A Guide for the Use of Librarians Giving Instruction to High School Students
Teaching the use of books and libraries is a practice which is steadily gaining ground among the high schools of the United States. Instruction ranges all the way from perhaps a talk or two on the dictionary and the card catalogue to rather elaborate and comparatively lengthy courses. The literature on the subject matter of instruction, though uneven in quality, is fairly plentiful; there are in print numerous reports and articles in library periodicals giving outlines of courses, and a number of useful textbooks and pamphlets. There is, however, very little on actual class room procedure, and what there is is widely scattered. The present book is intended to meet in some degree the lack of a convenient, practical work on applied teaching methods and so to supplement existing textbooks, especially the author's "Practical Use of Books and Libraries." It is especially written for libraries; but it is hoped that it may prove useful in normal and library school classes, and that teachers may find it suggestive.
In the Introduction are outline the reasons for giving instructions and the general principles of course planning.
In Part I are presented in detail the specific subjects of a course with the reasons for teaching them, list of lesson topics, list of objects material, references to other books, teaching outlines, exercises, questions, problems, and suggestive forms for question papers. In the selection of subjects, the standpoint adopted has been that of practical utility to the student in his daily work.
