Excerpt from Guide to the Use of Libraries: A Manual for College and University StudentsThe need of a textbook for college courses in the use of libraries and books where weekly problems are as signed to be worked out by the students has been keenly felt by instructors giving these courses. This manual is intended to serve as a textbook and basis for prob lems in such a course planned for undergraduate students. It is in no sense a handbook for the trained librarian or scholar. It contains chapters on general library prae tices helpful to the user Of any library, suggestions as to the use of books, and annotated lists Of the basic refer ence works in general and special fields. Its use leaves free for recitation and discussion the part Of the class period otherwise consumed in detailed note-taking, and places the subject matter of the course before the student in a convenient and trustworthy form.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
