Excerpt from Standard Catalog, Biography Section: One Thousand Titles of the Most Representative, Interesting and Useful Biographies Scope. This section of the Standard Catalog contains about one thousand titles of the moat representative and useful books on social, economic and educational questions, arranged under the class numbers of the Dewey decimal classification, with descriptive and evaluative notes. Author and subject indexes are appended. This Catalog, covering the Sociology(300) division of the Dewey classification, will later form part of a dictionary catalog of 5, 000 of the best books for adults on all subjects that should be represented in a public library of that size. As now printed, it includes more volumes than will be listed in the final Catalog. This section is issued in advance of the full Catalog in response to requests from public libraries and library commissions, because of the need of an up-to-date list of books on sociology and economics, because it seemed wise to print a test section in the hope of getting valuable criticism before issuing the full Catalog, and because the publishers wish to find out whether there is a demand for a classed catalog, printed in sections, in addition to the full dictionary catalog. The Standard Catalog is the third in the Standard Catalog Series, already including the Childrens Catalog, issued in three sizes, with its 1918 Supplement, and the Fiction Catalog. It is the intention of the publishers to issue complete Standard Catalogs in dictionary form in sizes varying from 1, 000 to 10, 000 titles, including adult fiction, and to revise them every year or two. Method of compilation. Questionnaires were sent out to a number of librarians, before beginning the work, dealing with its scope, form, and the dati to be included. With these suggestions to guide her, in addition to her own experience in public libraries, large and small, and in one state library, the compiler formed her plan of work. No attempt was made to go over in detail the ground so carefully covered by the American Library Association up to 1912, altho some books published prior to 1912 and not included in the A. L, A. Catalog and Supplement have been listed at the suggestion of collaborators. The chief sources used for the older books were the A. L.A. Catalog of 1904 and its Supplement(1904-1911) and the Classified Catalog of the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh. Beginning with 1912, the compiler checked such titles as might be included in a librarj of 10, 000 volumes, in the bulletins of the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh, the Cleveland Public Library, the Pratt Institute Library, the St. Louis Public Library, and the New York Branch Library News. These were clipped and mounted on cards, together with material from a number of other sources, including lists in bulletins of library commissions, notably that of Wisconsin, the New York Best Books, the Booklist, the Russell Sage Foundation Bulletin, etc. The file of book reviews accumulated by the Book Review Digest was constantly used. In this way a tentative list of some 1, 300 titles was made and the galley proofs were sent to a few librarians and to a few specialists along economic, educational and sociological lines, for criticism and suggestion. Acknowledgments. Among the many librarians who gave helpful advice special thanks are due to Mr. John Boynton Kaiser and Miss Mary E.Lytle of the Tacoma (Wash.) Public Library, Miss Louise Hinsdale of the East Orange (N.J. )Public Library, Miss MaryL, Jones of the Los Angeles County Free Library, Miss Lucy E.Fay, instructor in the Carnegie Library School, and Mr, John Cotton Dana of the Newark (N.J.) Free Public Library. The compiler also acknowledges her indebtedness to Miss Phelps of the Education section of the New York State Library, who checked up the books on Education from the standpoint of their practical use, and to the library of the Russell Sage Foundation, which offered suggestions of much va.

"Krak Teet" is a Gullah Geechee phrase meaning "to speak." And the first-hand accounts in this book are transcribed directly from the grandchildren of the enslaved who laid the city's treasured cobblestone roads and introduced its famous red rice and deviled crabs. Those who lived through what can be considered the country's second wave of the #BlackLivesMatter movement.Krak Teet catalogs stories of struggle-Ms. Madie's family of sharecroppers fleeing after her father sold a pig without permission, Mr. Roosevelt stuffing his mother's stab wounds with cobweb to stop the bleeding, and Ms. Florie marching Broughton Street twice a day to protest segregation-alongside stories of success-Queen Elizabeth Butler becoming Savannah's first black woman to own a car, Ms. Sadie making over $500 a week running numbers, and the city's desegregation eight months before the Civil Rights Act passed.In the oral history tradition of Drums and Shadows, Krak Teet repositions Savannah's black history as the basis for the whole versus a historical sidebar.

Excerpt from Biographical Catalogue of the Chancellors, Professors and Graduates of the Department of Arts and Science of the University of the City of New York The work of securing the material for the catalogue proved to be vastly greater than was anticipated. Not a few of the living Alumni are too modest to present their records, even after repeated calls by letter or in person; while, of many of those belonging to the older classes, no traces could be found, although in some instances scores of letters were sent in search. But the denominational handbooks, the catalogues of professional schools, and the publications of the Greek letter Fraternities have furnished information from which partial records have been compiled of some Alumni, respecting whom no other facts could be obtained. Not a few gaps remain, some of which will be filled in a supplement which, it is hoped, will be issued within two or three years. At the same time the Committee cannot refrain from congratulating the Alumni upon the success which has attended its efforts, in that the catalogue is issued, two years from its inception, so nearly complete - a result due to the hearty co-operation of many who are not members of the Committee. While the labor of compilation has been shared by all members of the Committee, the greater part of the work has been done by Dr. C. S. Benedict, '80, Prof. J. J. Stevenson, '63, and Dr. A. W. Ferris, '78. In addition to a vast amount of other labor, Prof. Stevenson prepared the entire biographies of the Chancellors and Professors, and also the Bibliography. Dr. Ferris revised and edited the copy of the section of the catalogue which contains the biographies of the Graduates, and supervised the printing of the volume.
