Abstract

REFERRING to the letter on “Library Stocks of Periodicals” published in NATURE of July 24, Mr. C. C. Barnard writes: “I inadvertently failed to appreciate the proposals of a committee of the Association of Special Libraries and Information Bureaux, which has under consideration the preparation of a Union Catalogue of Periodicals in British Libraries. This Committee! proposes at present to limit its plan to the compilation of a consolidated check list composed of entries in the 'World List of Scientific Periodicals', the 'Union Catalogue of Periodical Publications in University Libraries', and the relevant section of the 'British Museum Catalogue'. The work which it contemplates should be of assistance in the accomplishment of the larger scheme which I outlined.”
