Excerpt from Supplementary Catalogue of the Library of the Parliament of Victoria The Library Committee having requested me, while Parliamentary Librarian, to undertake the preparation of a Supplementary Catalogue of books added to the Library since 1864, it has been my endeavor, in carrying out their wishes, to perform the task entrusted to me with accuracy and fidelity. In the following pages, the names of the different authors are arranged alphabetically; and where a work has been published anonymously, the title has been entered in a way to indicate the subject-matter of the book. The alphabetical method of arrange ment was adopted at the suggestion of the Library Committee, who considered that form to be the simplest and most convenient for the ordinary purposes of reference. It was originally my intention to have inserted, not only the room and compartment, but also the shelf in which every book is to be found but the Committee, while approving of the plan, were of opinion that the publication of these details would unnecessarily prolong and increase the labor of the work. There were similar reasons against the preparation of a Classified Catalogue. The delay in the present issue has arisen, partly from a desire on my own part to render it as correct as possible, for which purpose I was obliged, in a large number of cases, to undertake the tedious and laborious process of referring to the books themselves and partly from causes over which I had no control. The postponement of the publication, however, has enabled me to bring the Catalogue down to the end of January in the present year. I have appended a list of the additions to the Library since the earlier sheets were printed off, and have also added a list of the newspapers and periodicals currently received, and a copy of the Rules for the Regulation of the Library.
