BOOKS IN THE VARIOUS DEPARTMENTS

OF

LITERATURE AND SCIENCE

ADDED TO THE

PUBLIC LIBRARY OF CINCINNATI

DURING THE YEAR

With the Compliments of the Board of Managers of

The Public Library.

A. W. Whelpley, Librarian.

PREFACE.

The following catalogue contains the titles of the principal books purchased for and presented to the Library during the year 1887. It consists of four classified "Quarterly Bulletins", a subject index, and an index of authors, anonymous works and collections.

As in the volume for 1886, the classification is simply for convenience, not at all pretending to scientific or bibliographical perfection. As a key to the most recent additions to the Library, it will be found serviceable. Friends of the Public Library will confer a favor, if they will kindly communicate to the Librarian the correction of any error they may discover in the BULLETINS, or the authorship of any works treated as anonymous, or the name of any person entered only under initials or under a pseudonym.

ALBERT W. WHELPLEY,

Librarian.
