Excerpt from Catalogue of the Library of the Historical Society of the State of Montana, Vol. 2 of 2: Also the Report of the Librarian for the Year 1891-92, Being the First Biennial Report and Catalogue Ever Published by the State or Society Sir: I have the honor to herewith transmit the first biennial report of Wm. F.Wheeler, our very efficient and painstaking librarian, which includes a well arranged Catalogue of all books, pamphlets, manuscripts, etc., in the Library of the Society. I heartily concur in the recommendations made by him, and especially the one in reference to transferring the Miscellaneous cs Division of the State Library, to the care of the Historical Society, as under the present arrangement it cannot be properly assorted, catalogued, and cared for. The present salary of the librarian is entirely inadequate for the? large amount of intelligent and valuable work performed by him. The next session of the Legislature should increase it to $1, 800 a year. The thanks of the Society are due to the Board of Commissioners of Lewis and Clarke County for giving it, free of cost, good rooms in the attic of the Court House.
