Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue of English Prose Fiction and Juvenile Books in the Chicago Public Library Books especially suitable for young people are indicated by the case letter H. Under the author's name are given the titles of his or her books in alphabetical order, except in the case of series, which are arranged as the books should be read. Contents of volumes of short stories are given under the author's name. Works having a historical basis, and descriptive novels, are so indicated by a note appended to the title under the author's name only. When this information forms no part of the title it is enclosed in brackets. Titles are entered under the first word not an article, and also under an important, or catch-word, when such occurs in a title, followed by the author's surname. For the benefit of those who wish to plan a systematic course of reading in fic tion, the list of bibliographical aids which follows has been compiled. Many of the books mentioned in this list, especially the catalogues of fiction in various libraries, have been freely used in the preparation of this catalogue. The titles of all new accessions to the library, since January 1, 1898, will be found on the bulletin boards in the Delivery Room, in the quarterly bulletins, and in the public card catalogue.
