Excerpt from Brief List of Meteorological Text-Books and Reference Books: A Selection of Works Suitable for General, Scientific, and University Libraries in the United States This compilation is designed, primarily, to guide the librarians of large general, scientific, and university libraries in the United States in selecting meteorological literature for their collections. It is also intended to provide a ready means of complying with the many requests received by the Weather Bureau from teachers, students, and others for the titles of books dealing with meteorology and its several branches. While there is, of course, room for much difference of opinion as to what should be included in a list of about one hundred and fifty works, selected from many thousand, the present compilation is the fruit of several years experience in dealing with the literature of this subject, and will probably meet the requirements of the majority of American readers and students. Obviously, the limited scope of the list makes it necessary to exclude a great many important memoirs dealing with special topics and addressed to the specialist rather than the general student; also the innumerable periodical publications recording the results of observations at meteorological observatories and stations throughout the world; and many scientific journals devoted wholly or partly to meteorology. Lastly, attention is called to the much more extensive bibliographical information to be found in such publications as the annual meteorological volumes of the International Catalogue of Scientific Literature, the Royal Society's Catalogue of Scientific Papers (a meteorological subject-index to which is in preparation), the annual Kosmische Physik volume of the Fortschritte der Physik, and, for the earlier literature on certain branches, the Bibliography of Meteorology published by the U. S. Signal Office in 1889-1891. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
