Excerpt from Catalogue of the Chicago Municipal Library, 1908 This Catalogue of the books, pamphlets, periodicals, etc., which consti tute the Municipal Library, as maintained in connection with the Bureau of Statistics, is the first ever compiled. Heretofore, as there was no Catalogue, the large mass of valuable material which has grown out of, or directly concerns, the Executive and Legislative branches of city governments, has practically scarcely existed for the Heads of Departments and the Aldermen of the corporation of Chicago. Few only of those officials have made it convenient often to visit this Library, and consequently its many possible benefits have been much too little availed of. A copy of this Catalogue is sent to His Honor the Mayor; to the Secre tary to the Mayor; to all the Heads of Departments and to their chief clerks and deputies; to every Alderman, and additional copies to the Chairmen of Committees of the City Council; and to all members, together with the chief clerks, of the permanent Commissions and Boards.
