To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In fact, that a pamphlet of ten pages is not in most libraries catalogued as fully as a six volume publication is another recognition of the same principle. • In the second place, when you can get work done cheaply for you by some one else, it is a reason for cataloguing books to which you could not spare sufficient money yourself. This applies particularly to printed cards. Third I am more and more convinced that scholars' libraries like this one must, however unwillingly, recognize the fact t...hat the subject catalogue is meant for the general public, not the specialist. Librarians in general may not yet be ready to admit this but all I have seen of this library and of its use by the faculty for the last twenty-five years strengthens me in my conviction. The principle is truer now than it was twenty-five years ago, owing to the multiplication of learned periodicals and bibliographies in the meantime. A subject catalogue inevitably contains a mass of stuff of infer- ior value and omits much that is of considerable value.
