Excerpt from Handbook of Card Distribution<br/><br/>This edition of the Handbook is designed to contain a concise explanation of the usual methods of ordering and using the L. C. Cards, and to furnish specific references to sections in the Bulle tins of the Card Section in which explanation of unusual and alternative methods of ordering the cards may be found. A knowledge of the scope of the stock of printed cards and a rational method of deciding and indicating how many copies of a given card are needed being prime requisites to the successful ordering of the cards by any method, the information on these topics in Bulletins 11 and 12 has been restated in condensed form in this edition of the Handbook. As the A. L. A. Catalog is still used to a considerable extent by small public libraries as a means of ordering cards, the essen tial facts in Bulletin 6 have been restated in Part IV,  7. Facsimiles of catalog cards have been introduced in Part IV as an aid to the explanation of essential principles in the use of the cards. In  1 of the Appendix will be found a list of all of the changes in the regulations for ordering cards which have been made in this edition of the Handbook. Altho none of the changes are of prime importance, subscribers should note them carefully. The Appendix also contains brief statements as to alternative meth ods of ordering and using the cards and miscellaneous items of information. A list of the Bulletins thus far published (nos. 1  20) will be found in the last section of the Appendix. But as this edition of the Handbook contains specific references to supplementary ia formation in the Bulletins, libraries will ordinarily need to consult the Bulletins only when they are cited in the Handbook. On the other hand, libraries should read carefully the Bulletins published hereafter and note any statements in them which modify or sup plement statements made or cited in this edition of the Handbook.
