BIBLIONEWS AND AUSTRALIAN NOTES & QUERIES INDEX 1947 – 2018 Numbers 1 - 400 Compiled by Jeff Bidgood Revised and Edited by Neil Radford © Book Collectors’ Society of Australia Sydney 2019 PREFACE This index combines four separate indexes to Biblionews, viz • Issues 1-245 (1947-1979) by John Fletcher • Issues 246-312 (1979-1996) by Garry Cousins • Issues 313-340 (1997-2003) by Jeff Bidgood • Issues 341-400 (2004-2018) by Neil Radford The indexes for Nos. 1-360 (1947-2008) were combined into one by Jeff Bidgood in 2010 and edited by Neil Radford. To this index have now been added the annual indexes to Nos. 361-400 by Neil Radford and the resulting compilation has been edited by Neil Radford. Because these indexes were compiled by different people with differing ideas of what should be included and how items should be indexed, there are many inconsistencies. To give just one example, the Fisher Library at the University of Sydney was variously indexed under ‘University of Sydney Library’ (with a reference ‘Fisher Library see University of Sydney Library’), under ‘Libraries - Fisher Library’, and under ‘Libraries - Sydney University (Fisher)’. They are now brought together under ‘University of Sydney, Fisher Library”. We hope that all such inconsistencies have been identified and resolved. Some errors (names, page references etc) have been found and corrected, but others probably remain. The result is not perfect, but we hope that it will enable users easily to find what they are seeking with minimal risk of missing relevant material. Titles of books and periodicals mostly appear in italics (this practice was not always consistent). Entries beginning with numbers are filed as if spelled out - for example 5 Poems is filed as Five Poems. Names beginning M’ and Mc and Mac are filed as if spelled Mac. There is inconsistency in entering books by author and by title – some are under author, others under title. Check both if you are searching for information on a particular book. Indexing is by issue number in bold type, followed by a colon and page reference(s). The first issue of Biblionews to be numbered was 100, issued in June 1954. Numbering of issues was inconsistent in the early years, and was sometimes confused by use of Series numbers, Part numbers and Volume numbers, which occasionally produced random infelicities. In a small number of cases an issue has been given two sequential numbers indicating that it is a joint issue rather than two separate issues, e.g. 355-356. For a complete list of issues and their numbers see next page. Where, under a heading, there are references to more than one issue, each issue in bold is separated from the next issue by a semi-colon and a space, thus: 123:45, 46; 234:56-60; 345:77 Attention must be drawn to the fact that the Cousins index, made by a professional indexer, is in greater depth and detail than the others, which causes many inconsistencies, but the prospect of going back and upgrading the other indexes to this standard was too daunting. For example Cousins made much use of headings relating to genres or types of literature (e.g. comics, crime fiction, science fiction, etc). Fletcher’s index used only ‘science fiction’ and neither Bidgood nor Radford usually indexed to this level. As a result the indexing of literary genres is very inconsistent. Rather than delete all index headings which gave only a partial picture of a genre, the decision was taken to retain the existing index entries, and to add to them where possible, but users are warned that the results are incomplete. However we believe that this combined index, although not perfect, will certainly be both useable and helpful.
