[ Dr. Dibdin says ('Bibliomania,' 1811, p. 97): "Catalogues 

 are to bibliographers what Reports are to lawyers — not to be read 

 through from end to end — but to be consulted on doubtful 

 points." He stigmatises (p. 35) a confessed destroyer of book- 

 catalogues as "an Omar," but our modern librarians, "in confer- 

 ence,' would probably write down the Doctor as " Stultus," if we 

 may judge by a recent occurrence at a great library in the City. 

 When priced and with purchasers' names, the importance of cata- 

 logues both as standards of value and means of tracing the pro- 

 prietorship of rare and curious books is sufficiently obvious.]
