Excerpt from Catalogue of Books in the Public Library of Western Australia, (Queen Victoria Jubilee Memorial), Vol. 1: A-L The main or author entries have been made fairly full, so that the books may be easily identified, but owing to financial considerations subject and title entries have been curtailed as much as possible, consistent with sense and meaning. All books having a definite subject have been catalogued under both author and subject, and shelf numbers attached to both entries novels and dramas have been entered under author and title, but the shelf number omitted from the title entry. Anonymous and pseudonymous works have been entered under the real name of the author, where procurable, with a reference from the title of the book or the pseudonym. So far as possible with the means at our command, bibliographical exactness has been aimed at. Failure to achieve it will I hope be ascribed to lack of the necessary authorities, and not to unwillingness to take the trouble to consult them.
