REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN. 55 



Catalogues. 



There are three catalogues, or indexes, viz : The author's catalogue, the 

 title catalogue, and the subject catalogue. Only the author's catalogue is com- 

 plete; the title catalogue will be complete early in the coming year; the 

 subject catalogue, as far as present experience goes, is quite an endless matter. 

 All the pamphlets are now subject-catalogued and a great many books, but 

 the majority of the books are yet untouched. There are more than 16,000 

 subject cards, many of them having two or more references, so that there are 

 easily 40,000 references, and, as far as possible, students are taught to make 

 use of them; a printed card explains the matter, and a great many students 

 have mastered the subject. A case for the cards is being made by the 

 mechanical department.
