Catalogue of Scientific Papers (1874–1883)

Abstract

THIS volume marks the completion of the third series of the Royal Society's contribution to the bibliography of science. With it the “Index Auctorum” for the ten years 1874-83 is completed, as originally planned, but in order to make the list of papers as exhaustive as possible, the Society are, as is known, actively preparing a supplementary volume to contain additional titles and references, taken from serials published not only during that decennium, but also of earlier date, which from one cause or another are not included among those at present indexed. When this supplement is issued, as we hope it may be within the next two or three years, we shall be in possession of a practically complete author-index to the whole vast mass of the serial literature of science, back from the year 1883 to the beginning of the nineteenth century.
