CONNOR ii FOREWORD Reference Books for a Regional Reference Collection; Revised Edition, 1967 The four years since publication of the original list of Reference Rooks for a Regional Reference Collection has been a rich period of hook publishing activity. The large number of new editions and new works of reference which have appeared is our most tangible evidence of the widely heralded "information explosion." Most notable of the reference works recently issued are the Netv Catholic Encyclopedia, the long awaited Encyclopedia of Philosophy, and the Random House Dic- tionary. New supplements to Granger's Index-to Poetry, the Short Story Index, and the Index to Full Length Plays have also appeared in time to be included in this revised list. Julia Ruth Armstrong compiled the materials for the first edition of Reference Books for a Regional Reference Collection during 1962- 63. Miss Armstrong drew on her professional experience in the Roch- ester Public Library, the Regional Library Service Center, Watertown. New York (now the North Country Library System), and the New York Public Library Donnell Reference Library. Since its printing in 1963, the bibliography's usefulness has been proven many times over. In 1967, the need for updating became evident and Edward C. Nelson was selected to do it. Mr. Nelson has extensive reference experience with the New York Public Library Bronx Reference Center and Don- nell Reference Library. As much as possible, he has tried to stay within the framework of Miss Armstrong's original scheme. The reference format has been the objective, but where necessary, circulating type subject material has been added. The final score is: 378 new titles or new edition;, most of which bear imprints for the years 1961 through 1966 with partial coverage of 1967. This brings the total a little short of 1400 entries. It is our hope that no glaring omissions have been tnade and that the bibliog- raphy will be of some help to reference librarians in building well - rounded collections.

This list has come into being to serve a spec:al purposethe strengthening of regional reference library col lections. In New York State the recent expansion of multi-county library systems has shown the need for greatly enlarged reference collections to take care of the inquiries for information from member libraries. It is with this type of collection in mind that this list has been compiled. The list contains just over 1,000 titles. These cover most subject areas in which a regional library might be expected to supply informa tion. With a collection of this size most of the inquiries received could be answered without referral to the State Library. This list does not attempt to cover the range of titles required for a research or special lilnary. Reference books fur a children's library have not been included unless they have a specific use in the adult reference room. Some outof.print titles have been listed as well as currently available titles so that the list may have additional use as a check list in evaluat ilig an established collection. The list includes many titles which also have a place in a circulating collection. As any reference librarian soon learns, reference assistance can only be given satisfactorily when the total collection of the library is considered as a part of the reference resources. Many titles used in circulation can profitably be made "reference"to supplement the encyclopedias, handbooks, etc., which are fundamental in a reference collection. It would be misleading to imply that books alone will provide an adequate reference collection. Of great importance are periodicals and serials which are not covered iH this compilation. A file of these in some form (bound for recent years, on microfilm or microcard for older files) must be developed by the reference librarian on the basis of ex- perience and the nature of the community served. Although the periodi cats are not included in the present list, the many indexes to periodicals will be signposts in the development of an adequate periodical file for reference. 1 In making the list I have used the collections of the Donnell Refer- ence Library, the Education Library and the Art Library of the Don- nell Library Center of The New York Public Library. I have also had the advice of Robert P. Stewart, Public Library Consultant. Library Extension Division. The New York State Library. No list is perfect or final. If this one is useful to busy librarians, it will serve its purpose. 2 6 DEWEY 1)1:CIAIAT. 000 - 099 BASIC LIST OF REFERENCE BOOKS RECOMMENDED FOR CENTRAL LIBRARIES 000-099 Indexes Indexes of periodicals and/or books, pamphlets, etc., are essential for reference use as well as for hook selmtion and ordering. They are important in a reference center for the identification of material al- though the center may not own the materials listed. The trade lists of %l_stew published materials are also essential. In building a reference collection periodicals which are indexed should be kept as reference if the material indexed.is worthwhile.If periodicals are allowed to circulate there will be gaps in the files. Microfilms of older periodicals are often desirable. 015.73 The Book review digest... Annual cumulation. v. 1- 1905-- New York [etc.] The II. W. Wilson company [1905]- v. 261/2 cm.

  • Notes on the Development of the Linguistic Society of America 1924 To
    NOTES ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE LINGUISTIC SOCIETY OF AMERICA 1924 TO 1950 MARTIN JOOS for JENNIE MAE JOOS FORE\\ORO It is important for the reader of this document to know how it came to be written and what function it is intended to serve. In the early 1970s, when the Executive Committee and the Committee on Pub1ications of the linguistic Society of America v.ere planning for the observance of its Golden Anniversary, they decided to sponsor the preparation of a history of the Society's first fifty years, to be published as part of the celebration. The task was entrusted to the three living Secretaries, J M. Cowan{who had served from 1940 to 1950), Archibald A. Hill {1951-1969), and Thomas A. Sebeok {1970-1973). Each was asked to survey the period of his tenure; in addition, Cowan,who had learned the craft of the office from the Society's first Secretary, Roland G. Kent {deceased 1952),was to cover Kent's period of service. At the time, CO'flal'\was just embarking on a new career. He therefore asked his close friend Martin Joos to take on his share of the task, and to that end gave Joos all his files. Joos then did the bulk of the research and writing, but the~ conferred repeatedly, Cowansupplying information to which Joos v.t>uldnot otherwise have had access. Joos and HiU completed their assignments in time for the planned publication, but Sebeok, burdened with other responsibilities, was unable to do so. Since the Society did not wish to bring out an incomplete history, the project was suspended.
