Reviews are entered under the reviewer, author, editor, translator, and writer of an introduction. The name of a reviewer is entered in small capitals, and (r) precedes the title of the work reviewed. In other cases the word reviewed is used. Subordinate connection with a book reviewed is indicated by or The title of a book reviewed is placed in quotation marks; but only such portion of the title is given as is necessary to identify the work, and a biography is entered under the heading of the subject by means of the word by or biog. By. The index is not a complete subject catalogue of the reviews. They are entered under the subjects when these are distinct and limited, or else uncommon, and the delimiting facts are shown by the titles of the books. This plan calls for the subject entry of biographies, books on special periods, such as the Restoration or the reign of one monarch, and books on such fields as the Philippines; in general, the attempt has been made. To give a subject catalogue of such books as are not usually searched for under the names of the authors. The com piler recognizes the inconvenience of this personal selection but with the limited space at his disposal it has not been possible to do justice to all the departments of the review, and the reviews have been entered fully by title in the separate indexes.

The obituary notices are the only items in the department of Notes and News which find a place in the index.
