Serial Publications; Their Place and Treatment in Libraries
Library science textbook on the role and treatment of periodical publications and series in librarys - covers selection, acquisition, classification and catalogue techniques, etc. One-page bibliography.
Serial Publication in England Before 1750
This 1957 text was the first thorough account of the serial publication of books in the eighteenth century. Professor Wiles shows how, first by serialization in newspapers and then by releasing instalments of a work in progress in small packets of sheets stitched in blue paper and delivered regularly to subscribers, English publishers made new and old books available to a great number of readers. It had not previously been realized how extensive the practice was. As a method of publishing it had important effects: because books could be sent out in instalments the high price of books sold was no longer a bar to the spread of literacy and useful knowledge. After explaining the growth of this method from the last years of the seventeenth century until 1750, Professor Wiles gives important chapters to related questions, such as the state of the law of copyright.

Catalogue of the Periodical Publications
Excerpt from Catalogue of the Periodical Publications: Including the Serial Publications of Societies and Governments, in the Library of University College London This catalogue contains the titles of all the works in the College Library which are issued in a serial form. Some publications are included which are not, strictly speaking, issued as periodicals (e.g. the Publications of the Ray Society), and there are a few others the right of which to be classed as periodicals is doubtful: but in both these cases it has been thought better to include something which may not be a serial rather than to exclude a work which may be looked for in a catalogue of periodicals.
