CATALOGUING AND CLASSIFICATION. 



During the year 2,644 volumes, 591 pamphlets, 5,568 continuations, 

 and 13 maps were catalogued, making a total of 8,816, an increase of 

 660 over the previous year. There were added to the main (dic- 

 tionarj^) catalogue 20,951 cards and 1,699 were withdrawn, making 

 the net addition 19,252, a decrease of 2,074 as compared with the 

 previous year. This decrease in the number of cards added to the 

 catalogue, whereas there was an increase in the number of books 

 catalogued compared with the previous year, is explained by the fact 

 that a large number of reprinted cards for department publications 

 were added to the catalogue during the fiscal year 1910. It is esti- 

 mated that the main dictionary catalogue now contains approxi- 

 mately 260,000 cards. 



The number of titles prepared during the year by the Library for 

 printing by the Library of Congress in what is known as the " Agr " 

 series was as follows: 



Cards for accessions and recatalogued books 1, 557 



Cards for department publications 355 



Cards for foreign agricultural periodicals 68 



Total 1,980 



The total number of titles prepared by this Library since 1902, in 

 which year the printing of our cards by the Library of Congress was 

 begun, is 18.101. It may be of interest to other agricultural libraries 

 to give here the list of series for which this Library prepares printed 

 cards. With a few exceptions, cards have been prepared for the com- 

 plete series. The cards are printed by the Library of Congress in 

 the " Agr " series, and are available for purchase.
