To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Such guides should always be framed, as nothing is more offensive in a library than dirty and warped guides. In some places in addition a swinging or projecting sign at the end of each case denotes the class contained in the case ; so that, standing at a certain angle of vision, the visitor has a con- spectus of all the classes before his eyes. This method is adopted in the Islington Libraries. (3) A good deal of ingenuity has been expended in guiding the tiers. Perhaps the most ingenious metho...d is that devised by Mr. Jast and described LIBRARY CLASSIFICATION 159 by Mr. James D. Stewart in The Library World, vol. Vii, page 116. It consists of a block of wood with a framed diagram of the actual shelves fixed in front of it after the following manner : Shelf 1' 1 r, Smtt 1; 1' 1 ' // 1 /' Mr. L. S. Jast's tier guide. The subjects contained on the \arious shelves are written on the appropriate spaces on the diagram. This excellent guide is rather expensive and has the additional disadvantage of occupying the average space of three volumes in each tier ; it is, however, the most effective guide we know.
