TH IS list was begun as an e x pan sion of Miss Mary ’ M e d lico t t s A bb revia tions i n B ook Ca ta logues w h ich w a s issue d in 1 906 by the Boston Book Compa n y as B b l a h m N 1 . B ulletin of i iog r p y , pa phlet o . 5 I t has so far outgrown the limits of the o riginal list as to

b v usl d d m l r o io y epen ent on p revious si i a attempts nor , m although longer than ost previous attem pts , can any claim to more than approximate completeness be mad e for this list . Perhaps the chief po int of d i fference from other l ists is the greater attention paid to terms a nd abbreviations frequently used in current ca ta log ue s o f d - d secon han booksellers but Which , as they d escribe

n d v d ua l peculiarities of i i i copies , are seld om found in m A more for al bibliographies . rb i tra ry symbols used o nly in pa rti c u lar w or ks are usually explained in the works themselves a nd are therefore seld om in c lud ed

n c u n m here . The i l sio s are al ost entirely biblio confined to graphic rather than literary , that is , terms used in the d escription of books rather than in the titles proper . The chief exception is the inclusion of a partia l list of honorary titles likely to be met M m n in author entries . any ter s have been i cluded which are almost certain to be supe rfl uo us for the d expert bibliographer but , as the expert sel om ought

d m a i d to nee an ele entary list to d him , the nee s of beginners have been given fi rst consid eration . I t is perhaps unnecessary to state that this is a
