Excerpt from Manual of Library Cataloguing
The catalogues to be compiled upon the lines laid down in this work come between these two extremes, and are intended to serve as a key to the treasure-house of know ledge and disclose its contents in a ready, but orderly, manner to all inquirers. Carlyle says, a big collee tion of books, without a good catalogue, is a Polyphemus with no eye in his head.
