18 SUPPLEMENT No. 1 TO THE FINDING LIST OF THE APPRENTICES' LIBRARY ESTABLISHED AND MAINTAINED BY THE GENERAL SOCIETY OF MECHANICS AND TRADESMEN OF THE CITY OF NEW YORK Containing a List of Books added from January to December, 1888 EXPLANATION. THE following list contains a condensed but complete catalogue of all the new books added to the Apprentices' Library during the year 1888. The arrangement of the divisions and sub-divisions is strictly alphabetical, but for convenience of instant reference an alphabetical index of subjects is prefixed which will direct the reader to the exact page where any topic may be found. Books are generally entered in alphabetical order in each section under what is presumed to be the author's real name (printed in SMALL CAPS), except where the assumed name was better known and more likely to be looked for by the majority of users of a catalogue. In some cases the assumed name follows the real name (in parentheses). When the assumed name is taken as a heading, the real name, when known, follows [in brackets]. When a work has no author, the first word of the title (not an article or proportion), is taken as a heading. In making out orders from this catalogue the reader should give the author's name, the first part of the title, the number, and volume (if there is more than one). The number always consists of a class letter, followed by not more than four figures, and sometimes by a title-letter (in italics). All the various parts of a number must be copied as each is equally important. The numbering scheme is so arranged as to show the size of the book. Thus, if the last three figures are below 500 the work is a 12°; between 500 and 800 indicates an 8; from 800 to 900 is used for 4°s; and from 900 to 999 is reserved for folios. If a work is bound with or forms part of another, this fact must be stated on the order list. A single dash indicates the absence of a preceding heading; a second dash shows the absence of a subsequent heading. "F. S. L." means Franklin Square Library; "v." means volume or volumes; "transl." means translated or translator; "ed." means edited or edition; "edr." means editor; and "pt," means part. A preceding a title means that the book is for reference only, and cannot be taken from the library. A full list of catalogues for sale will be found on the last page of the cover.
