Excerpt from The Catalogue of the Melbourne: Public Library for 1861 - "There studious let me sit, And hold high converse with the Mighty Dead, Sages of antient time, as Gods rever'd, As Gods beneficent, who blest mankind With arts, with arms, and humaniz'd world." Thomson's "Winter." The establishment of a Public Library in Victoria, supported by the State, and stamped with the characteristics of a National Institution, was made the subject of curly consideration by our first governor, Mr. Latrobe. Fully impressed with the importance of. the influence likely to arise from voluntary adult mental improvement, as well as of the intellectual and moral elevation to be created by a cultivation of the works of standard authors, he placed upon the Estimates of the year 1853, a sum of three thousand pounds ( 3,000) for the purchase of books, and ten thousand pounds ( 10,000) towards the erection of a suitable building to contain them. These sums were cheerfully voted by Parliament; and, recognising and approving the liberality of sentiment which originated the design, two further sums, equal in amount, were in the ensuing year generously provided for the like purposes.

Excerpt from Manual of Library Cataloguing Generally I find a library catalogue is assumed to be a thing that is somehow 'made' at a single stroke, as Aladdin's palace was built, at intervals of ten or a dozen years, or whenever a 'new catalogue is thought to be needed, instead of, as he proceeds to show, being a never' ending work calling for the exercise of all the power and knowledge at the command of the cataloguer.
