Description:Excerpt from The Book-Lover's Library In 1878 I wrote for the Index Society, as its first publication, a pamphlet entitled "What is an Index?" The present little book is compiled on somewhat similar lines; but, as its title suggests, it is drawn up with a more practical object. The first four chapters are "Historical," and the other four are "Practical"; but the historical portion is intended to lead up to the practical portion by showing what to imitate and what to avoid. There has been of late years a considerable change in public opinion with respect to the difficulties attending the making of both indexes and catalogues.
