Excerpt from New Catalogue of British Literature, 1896: A Record of the Publications of the Year Arranged in a Numerical Sequence, With Full Details of the Books, and Two Indexes; Subjects and Titles, Authors My intention in compiling it was the simple one of furnishing booksellers, publishers, book-readers, and all who take a bibliographical interest in books, with a handy and exact statement of the year's literature; and the facilities afforded me have been such as enable me to claim for this new catalogue a special place of its own among reference-books. The features which distinguish this work from all others of the same kind cause me to hope that, as the years go on, and volumes succeed each other, it will be accepted as the standard authority. In reality the matter here embodied is the work of the publishers themselves, since they have furnished me, month by month, with written descriptions of the publications they have issued. These have been carefully arranged, annotated, indexed, and numbered, so that a Catalogue has been realized which is at once authoritative and descriptive. I may be permitted to point out that the annotations are made from an examination of the books themselves, and these the publishers have sent me. No attempt has been made to criticise the works. The object intended to be served is the valuable one of supplying librarians and booksellers with such information as will enable them to classify them properly, and to furnish book readers with a guide to their contents and scope.
