Overview

Excerpt from Catalogue of Hebraica and Judaica in the Library of the Corporation of the City of London: With a Subject Index In the preparation of the Catalogue, the following method has been adopted. In the enumeration of works in Hebrew and other Semitic languages, the first two or three essential words of the title are given in the original language, and these are followed by a description in English. A full list of contents has been added to the description of several important works; as, for example, under the headings of Bible, Talmud, Moses ben Maimon, Beth ha-midrash, and various historical and periodical publications. An alphabetical index of the Hebrew, and of some other works written in Semitic languages, has been added, with the names of their authors or editors. As a special feature of this Catalogue, a c0pious English subject index has been appended; the index also includes references to some of the periodical publications. It is hoped that the new de parture thus made in the bibliography of Hebraica and Judaica will render this collection of Jewish literature conspicuously useful to an important class of readers. In conclusion, most cordial thanks have to be tendered to Mr. Charles Welch, the Chief Librarian, for his inestimable advice and co-operation. He has with unwearied patience devoted a considerable portion of his valuable time to the task of thoroughly systematising and revising the present Catalogue.
