PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION.
This edition of the Catalogue of the Library has been prepared by
Mr. H. S. Eaton, under the superintendence of the Secretary, on
precisely the same system as the former one, as the plan first adopted
has been found to answer every requirement; and the remarks on the
arrangement contained in the preface to the previous edition apply
equally to the present.
During the fifteen years which have elapsed since the former publi-
cation, the number of volumes in the Library has been steadily in-
creasing, and now exceeds five thousand five hundred ; while the
pamphlets, which perhaps more than larger works are calculated to
convey the impressions of the age, number upwards of three thousand
two hundred, contained in eight folio, fifty-one quarto, and one hundred
and forty-nine octavo volumes of tracts.
There still remain deficiencies which it will become more and more
difficult to supply as years pass away, particularly where volumes of a
series are wanting. These are noted in the Catalogue, and the Council
hope that their efforts to supply the missing volumes and to extend the
Library may be zealously seconded by the general body of the Members
and Associates of the Institution, so as to make the Library as perfect
as possible, and to render it instrumental in affording complete informa-
tion on engineering subjects from the earliest times to the present day.

PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION.
In the year 1841 the first part of a Catalogue of the Library was issued
containing the titles of the books arranged alphabetically under the
names of the Authors, and a second part, with the subjects also
arranged alphabetically, was to have been published subsequently ; want
of punctuality on the part of the person to whom the duty of editing
was entrusted, prevented the accomplishment of this intention, and it
was ultimately decided that a more complete system should be adopted.
Mr. C. Manby, the Secretary, was then instructed to report to the
Council ; and after devoting much time and attention to the subject, and
consulting the best authorities, he advised that an entirely new Cata-
logue should be drawn up, and that it should contain, in alphabetical
order, the names of the Authors, with the complete title of each work,
and the principal contents, with cross references to the authors of
works on those particular subjects most analogous to the pursuits of
Engineers.
This suggestion was adopted, and considerable progress was made in
the preparation of the slips, two principal entries being made for each
work, and as many cross references as were judged necessary. The
increase of the Institution induced, however, such an augmentation of
the labours of the Secretary, that it was found impossible to devote the
necessary time to this work, and as a Catalogue was imperatively de-
manded, the Council instructed the Secretary, in the summer of 1850,
VI PKEFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION.
to obtain assistance for the completion of the work, on the understand-
ing that it should be executed under his superintendence. Accordingly
Mr. James Forrest was induced to undertake the labour, and has
devoted himself to it almost incessantly, examining and collating the
original slips, and extending the cross references, including all the books
and pamphlets presented to the Institution up to the thirty-first of
December, 1850.
The Catalogue is now formed on a simple alphabetical system, giving
under the Author's name an entire transcript of the title-page of each
work and tract, the subject entries being made as brief as possible, and
the cross references being so multiplied, that scarcely any subject can
escape unnoticed. This could not, of course, extend to Encyclopaedias,
Transactions of Societies, current Periodicals, or to the Parliamentarv
Eeports ; for the latter, however, entries are made, similar to the indices
to the edition of Parliamentary Papers published in 1803. The Trans-
actions and Minutes of Proceedings of Societies are all arranged under
the word ** Transactions " as the principal entry, the name of the
Society, or Institution being taken for the sub-entry..
Bridges, Canals, Eailways, Eoads, Docks, Navigation, Ports, Eivers,
and "Water, have also been subject to a separate sub-arrangement and
classification. Thus, under ** Bridges," the description of bridge,
whether iron, stone, or timber, has been taken as the first sub-entry,
then the geographical distinction of the country in which the bridge is
situated, and then the name of the bridge itself.
Under *' Canals," the name of the country is the first sub-entry, and
then that of the canal itself. Under " Railways " and " Roads," matters
appertaining to their construction- and management are first given,
followed by a geographical arrangement similar to that adopted for
canals. For Docks, Navigation, Ports, Rivers, and Water, this minute
subdivision is unnecessary, on account of the comparatively limited space
occupied by these entries ; but in every case the rule of alphabetical
sub-arrangement has been closely followed.
The number of volumes in the Library is rather above three thousand,
and the number of tracts exceeds fifteen hundred. These latter are
bound up into thirty-eight quarto volumes, and ninety octavo volumes,
- each set being consecutively numbered.
PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION. Vll
A Catalogue Baisonne, embracing all the technicalities in the practice
of the profession, was that which would have been most useful, butvit
was a work of too great labour to be undertaken for a constantly increas-
ing library, — ^the present form has therefore been adopted. In the
first edition many errors and omissions will doubtless be discovered ; but
if they are immediately pointed out to the Secretary, with suggestions as
to useful additions, and sub-entries, subsequent editions may be ren-
dered more perfect and complete. Of clerical errors it is hoped there
will be but few ; great attention having been paid to collating the titles,
and to correcting the proof-sheets.
It has been alleged, that in the absence of a Catalogue, those who
would have contributed to increase the Library did not know what
books would be acceptable. The Council venture to hope, that the cir-
culation of this Catalogue among the Members of the Institution, will
not only remind all those who are Authors, of the absence of their
treatises, reports and pamphlets, but will induce the presentation of
those standard scientific and technical works, without which no library
can be considered complete.
In future a list will be kept of the books most needed by the
Institution, and it is recommended, that those Members intending to
contribute to the Library will either apply to the Secretary for the
name of some of these works, or will adopt the plan mentioned in the
last Annual Beport, of sending a sum of money, to be expended as may
be considered most advantageous by the Library Committee.
The literature of engineering, in the English language, has been
accused of being, and is perhaps, defective ; and it was thought, a few
years since, that gentlemen actively engaged in the practice of the pro-
fession, and who had the best opportunity for producing such works,
were averse to writing treatises, although it would have been much
more correct to have assigned this rather to their absorbing engagements,
than to any indifference to the progress of science. They have, how-
ever, written elaborate Beports, on various professional topics, and they
may with great advantage follow the example of the late Mr. R. Steven-
son, of Edinburgh, and present collections of their printed Reports to the
Institution. It is only necessary to refer to Smea ton's Reports, and to
the high value still attached to them, as a text-book for Engineers, to
Vlll PRBPACB TO THE FIRST EDITION.
show the importance of such documents, and to demonstrate, that they
would form the best collection of data, to be eventually used as the
basis and groundwork of more elaborate and complete treatises. The
aversion to book-making, if it ever existed, has been gradually giving
way, and the most eminent men in the profession are now enriching
the literature of engineering with the results of their varied experience ;
and as the Library of the Institution ought to represent the actual state
of technical literature, the Council confidently trust that the wants
exhibited by this edition of the Catalogue will be speedily supplied by
the liberality of the Members and their Friends.
