Locating Bookplates
Bookplate collectors who desire to know what collections have been assembled, where they are, the type of material gathered, how they are cared for, and their availability for study and consultation, should procure a copy of “A Census of Bookplate Collections in Public, College and University Libraries.” It was compiled by Carlyle S. Baer, presiding genius of the American Society of Bookplate Collectors & Designers, and Miss Clara Therese Evans, of Columbia University. The cost is $1.00 and it can be obtained by writing to Mr. Baer at 1763 Euclid St., N.W., Washington, D. C.
Robert L. Shurter presents in the July, 1939, issue of the SOUTH ATLANTIC QUARTERLY, an article on “The Writing of Looking Backward”, in which the facts regarding the composition, purpose, and subsequent influences of Edward Bellamy’s novel are set forth.
We understand that a committee of bibliographers headed by Lawrence C. Wroth, librarian of the John Carter Brown Library, Providence, is making plans for the compilation and publication of a “Cooperative Catalogue of Americana, 1700-1800”, and will be based upon material now housed in the principal libraries of this country. It will contain all eighteenth century historical material relating to the Western hemisphere, except newspapers, broadsides, maps, prints, almanacs, legislative and administrative proceedings and statute laws. A preliminary survey has disclosed that only about half of the existing material is recorded in either Sabin or Evans.
