ANNUAL REPORT. V 



of about 1000 books and pamphlets added to the Library between 

 June 1860 and June 1862, will also comprise a complete classified 

 Catalogue of all the Periodical Works (also making about 1000 titles) 

 in the Society's Library at the latter date. 



When this Catalogue shall have been published, it is in contem- 

 plation to substitute for the three printed and two MS. reference- 

 catalogues in the Library a single reference -catalogue which shall 

 contain all that is now comprised in the older set ; a book has already 

 been prepared for this purpose in accordance with a recommendation 

 of the Library Committee last year. 



New books and pamphlets have been catalogued and placed in the 

 Library, as usual, by Mr. Stair, who has also been of much assist- 

 ance in preparing diagrams for the Evening-meetings, and in com- 

 pleting the re-arrangement of the Portfolios containing the Society's 

 Collection of Sections, Plans, and Drawings.
