CATALOGUE OF LIBRARY. 32 1 



CONCHOLOGICAL SOCIETY. 



CATALOGUE OF LIBRARY. 



Many members having expressed a desire to see a Catalogue of the Books 

 belonging to the Societj', the Council have decided to publish the List 

 which follows, and it is intended to issue Supplementary Catalogues from 

 time to time. 



The Council here take the opportunity of reminding members that the 

 lowness of the Subscription makes it impossible to devote much money to 

 the purchase of new works, binding, &c., after the cost of the Journal of 

 Conchology and the necessary expenses of managing the business of the 

 Society have been met. The Society must therefore rely upon the generosity 

 of its members for additions to the Libraiy. Many members possess, no 

 doulit, works bearing upon Conchology which they could easily spare, and 

 which in the possession of the Society would be accessible to a larger range 

 of readers than in private hands. 



It will be seen that several of the manuals of British mollusca and various 

 S}'Stematic and monographic works are desiderata. Other works it is desir- 

 able to acquire are Local Lists and copies of Local and Topographical Works 

 containing conchological matter; also Reprints of papers from their Authors, 

 and, in short, works and papers upon concholog)' in the broadest sense. 

 The Library Regulations are given at the end of the Catalogue.
