WALLASEY PUBLIC LIBRARIES' 
 HANDBOOK. 
 
 Brief Description of the Libraries* 
 
 1. Reference Library. — This department contains over 2,600 
 volumes. It is strong in ready or quick reference books, e.g., among 
 many other books of this character there are two encyclopaedias (the 
 Britannica and Chambers's), good dictionaries of the Anglo-Saxon, 
 
 Y English, Welsh, Gaelic, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, 
 > Latin and Greek languages ; of synonyms, surnames, nicknames, 
 slang, and colloquial English and French ; dictionaries of general and 
 national biography, of Oriental, French, Italian and Spanish biography, 
 of painters and engravers ; also dictionaries, indexes and guides to 
 literature, history, dates, classical antiquities, philosophy, architecture, 
 political economy, music and musicians, quotations ; concordance to, 
 and dictionaries of, the Bible, and of Christ and the Gospels ; con- 
 cordances to Shakespere, Milton, Dickens and Burns. 
 
 2. Illustration Collection. — The Library also possesses a 
 fine collection of over 600 photographs of continental buildings and 
 scenes. 
 
 3. Local Collection. — A collection of books of local interest 
 has also been formed. Among these books are included Ormerod's 
 " Cheshire," Baines' " Lancashire and Cheshire," Earwaker's and 
 Lyson's books on Cheshire, The Victoria History of Lancaster, so far 
 as published, the Transactions of the Lancashire and Cheshire Historic 
 Society, the Proceedings of the Lancashire and Cheshire Antiquarian 
 Society, some very interesting books on the Wirral, including those 
 
 V) by Sulley, Mrs. Gamlin, Ronald Stewart-Brown on the Wapentake, 
 ^ and Hume on Ancient Meols ; besides some ancient maps and prints 
 illustrative of bvgone Cheshire. 
 
4 
 
 4. Students' Room. — In this room will be found proper accom- 
 modation for writing and studying in perfect quietness. On the 
 walls are large scale maps of the whole of North Wales and the 
 North-west of England, and it is questionable whether more than 
 than half-a-dozen public libraries provide greater or equal facilities 
 in the same direction. 
 
 5. Home Reading Libraries. — These collections contain alto- 
 gether 15,930 volumes, 13,000 being at Earlston, 2,930 volumes at 
 Seacombe. . The branches at Wallasey and Poulton receive their 
 collections on loan from Earlston and Seacombe respectively. 
 
 Both the Home Reading and Reference Libraries are strong in 
 English literature and history. The foreign section is now one of the 
 best in the district, and consists of a large number of books in French 
 and German, and a small selection in Spanish. The section is so well 
 used that every opportunity is taken of strengthening it. The Com- 
 mittee recognise that the admirable classes in foreign languages 
 at the technical schools are of little real value unless the students can 
 obtain plenty of practice in reading. 
 
 6. Catalogues. — The contents of the libraries are catalogued 
 on cards contained in cabinets placed in the Earlston Home Reading 
 and Reference Libraries, and in the Seacombe Library. The Reference 
 and Seacombe catalogues are complete ; the Earlston Home Reading 
 catalogue is in progress. The card catalogue has the great advantage 
 of enabling the Librarian to catalogue the libraries very minutely • 
 and cards indexing valuable but hidden essays and articles are being 
 inserted in the catalogues almost daily. 
 
 In these catalogues the entries are arranged in alphabetical order, 
 because it is essential that they should serve as indexes to the systematic 
 arrangement of the books on the shelves. Books are entered under 
 Authors (as Ruskin, John), Subjects (as, Painting), Series (as, English 
 Garner), and, when necessary, under Titles (as, Munera Pulveris). 
 
 Perhaps a few words are advisable to show how to get at informa- 
 tion quickly. To find information on Subjects, proceed thus : — 
 
 (a) If only a summary or outline of a subject is required, consult 
 the Encyclopaedias (marked A02 in the Reference Library) 
 without referring to the catalogue. 
 
 (b) If fuller information on a subject is needed, refer at once to 
 the Subject-Index printed on pages 14 — 42 of this Handbook. 
 A copy of the Handbook is hung at each section of the book- 
 shelves. 
 

 
 (c) If all the information the Library contains on a subject is 
 needed, consult the card catalogues of the Home Reading 
 and Reference departments at Earlston, and of the Home 
 Reading Library at Seacombe. 
 
 SeaGombe readers should ask an assistant to consult the 
 Earlston catalogues by telephone, and Earlston readers 
 should do the same it they desire to know what the 
 Seacombe Library contains. 
 
 To find a Book by a particular Author :— 
 
 Consult the card catalogues as recommended in (c) above. 
 
 To find a Work of Fiction 
 
 Consult the printed catalogue of fiction, which serves for all the 
 Libraries. 
 
 7. Readers wishing to study a subject in the Reference Library 
 will save their own time, and afford the Library staff a better oppor 
 t unity of searching for material, if they send a postcard to the Library 
 on the evening before they propose to pay their visit. Note on the 
 card the subject of study ; and the approximate time of the visit. 
 A telephone message will do as well as a card. The Librarian 
 undertakes to have all the available material (including essays and 
 articles) ready for a reader communicating in this way ; and it 
 may be possible even to obtain books from the Branch Libraries to 
 supplement the resources of the Central Library. In this way readers 
 obtain the fullest value of the Library. 
 
 8. Magazines, etc. — The greater number of the magazines and 
 literary papers received at the Central Library are displayed in the 
 Reference Library. In the Central Reading Room only newspapers 
 and a few of the more popular weekly illustrated papers are displayed. 
 At Seacombe and Wallasey the reading rooms contain a good selection 
 of newspapers and magazines. Following is a list of the papers taken 
 at all the Libraries. 
 
 [In this list the letters ESW signify that copies of the paper are 
 taken for Earlston, Seacombe, and Wallasey ; the letters ES, for 
 Earlston and Seacombe only. The abbreviation " 2h " after a library 
 letter, as S 2h, indicates that that particular library receives the paper 
 secondhand after it has been in use at another library in the district. 
 The abbreviations (ref.) and (ch.) after the names of papers indicate 
 that such papers are to be found in the Earlston Reference Room and 
 
the Seacombe's Children's Room respectively. Papers not so distin- 
 guished are in the Newsrooms. The asterisk * signifies that the paper 
 is presented.]

 HOME READING LIBRARIES. 
 
 19. 10. Admission to Libraries. — Books shall be lent for 
 home reading under the following conditions : — 
 
 (a) All persons whose names appear on the current Register of 
 Electors to the Wallasey Urban District Council, or who 
 produce the last receipt for the payment of their District rate, 
 may borrow books on their own responsibility, after filling 
 up an application for a Reader's Ticket on an Elector's 
 Voucher provided for the purpose. 
 
 {b) All persons who reside or are regularly employed in the 
 District, although not householders or property owners, 
 may borrow books, but must make application for a Reader's 
 Ticket on a Non-Elector's Voucher provided for the purpose ; 
 and must obtain the signature of a responsible elector, whose 
 name appears on the Register of Electors, to the form of 
 guarantee on such voucher. f 
 
 A charge of one penny shall be made for each of the Reader's 
 Tickets issued on such application. 
 
 20. 11. Age of Readers. — Persons under fourteen years of 
 age shall only be permitted to use the library upon the recommendation 
 of the headmaster or headmistress of a public school or private school 
 recognised by the Board of Education. 
 
 21. 12. Duration of Guarantee. — Each application voucher 
 .shall be filed for three years, and the Guarantee on such voucher shall 
 
10 
 
 remain in force during that time unless the reader cancels his ticket, 
 or the Guarantor desires to withdraw from his Guarantee. Notice of 
 intention to withdraw a Guarantee must be given in writing to the 
 Librarian, who shall grant a release as soon as he is satisfied that the 
 Guarantor's liability has been discharged. 
 
 22. 13. Duration of Tickets. — Each Reader's Ticket shall 
 remain in force for one year from the date of issue, but shall be renew- 
 able at the end of that period on the payment of one penny for a new 
 Ticket. 
 
 23. 14. Change of address. — Ticket -holders are required to 
 give notice of change of address within fourteen days after such change, 
 under penalty of the forfeiture of their ticket. 
 
 24. 15. Extra Tickets. — Every registered ticket-holder may 
 have two extra-tickets, on which only non-fictional works shall be 
 issued. A charge of one penny shall be made for each extra-ticket. 
 Extra-tickets shall expire at the same time as the ordinary tickets with 
 which they correspond. 
 
 25. 16. Use of Tickets. — Only registered ticket-holders shall 
 be admitted to these departments to choose their books. A reader 
 is required to deposit with the Assistant-in-charge one Ticket for every 
 work borrowed. If a work is in four or more volumes, not more than 
 three consecutive volumes shall be issued together as one work. 
 
 26. 17. Loss and misuse of Tickets. — Ticket-holders shall 
 be held responsible for all books borrowed by means of their tickets, 
 by whomsoever presented, and for all fines incurred upon books so 
 borrowed. 
 
 rs* CAUTION. — Readers should therefore take rare of their tickets and should 
 not allow them under any circumstances to be used by other people. 
 They should report to the Librarian loss of tickets at once, because 
 although the library staff knows nearly all the readers personally, it is 
 not always possible to detect unauthorised borrowers. If they leave 
 the district, or cease to use the library, they should return theii tickets 
 to the library to be cancelled. 
 
 27. 18. Duration and renewal of Loans. — Fourteen Days 
 from the date of issue shall be allowed for reading a book or work. At 
 the expiration of this time, a ticket holder may register his book for 
 another period of fourteen days, provided it does not bear the stamp 
 " In demand," or has not been asked for by another reader. A loan 
 shall be renewable (1) by delivering the book to the library to be re- 
 dated, or (2) by notifying the librarian, on a postcard or written slip 
 of the number of the book and the date of issue ; or (3) by ringing up 
 334 Liscard to renew books borrowed from Earlston or Wallasey, and 
 475 Liscard to renew books borrowed from Seacombe or Poulton. 
 
11 
 
 28. 19. Fines. — If the loan is not renewed the Fines for the 
 detention of the book or work beyond the time allowed shall be charged 
 at the rate of One Penny per week, or portion of a week. Postcards 
 demanding the return of the book, and all other expenses of recovering 
 the book, shall be charged to the reader. 
 
 29. 20. Bespeaking Books. — Any person desiring to have a 
 book reserved for him is required to give particulars of such book to 
 the Assistant-in-charge, and to pay a fee of One Penny. When the 
 book is available a post-card shall be sent to the person who has be- 
 spoken such book, requesting him to call or send for it within one day. 
 and warning him that it will be recirculated if not claimed within that 
 time. 
 
 30. 21. Reference Books tor Home Reading. — The Librarian 
 may, at his discretion, issue certain books in the Reference Library to 
 registered ticket-holders for home reading on the same terms as books 
 are issued from the home reading department. But such privilege 
 shall only be granted by the Librarian, or his representative. 
 
 31. 22. Damage to Books. — Readers are required to keep the 
 books clean. They must not turn down leaves or make penc«l or other 
 marks. Tn wet weather they must protect the books during their 
 passage to and from the library. The Librarian shall cause each book 
 to be examined on return, and if it be found to be injured, or soiled, 
 or written upon, he shall require the borrower, or his guarantor, to pay 
 the cost of making the damage good ; unless the borrower can prove 
 the book was damaged when issued to him, and that he took the earliest 
 opportunity to report the fact to the Librarian. 
 
 32. 23. Infectious Disease. — The Wallasey Improvement 
 Act, 1901, s. 29, provides that :— 
 
 No person shall return to any Lending Library any book which 
 has been to his knowledge exposed to infection from any infectious 
 disease, but shall at once give notice thereof and leave the book at 
 the office of the Inspector of Nuisances, whose duty it shall be to cause 
 the same to be disinfected and then returned to the Librarian. 
 
 Any person offending against this enactment shall be liable to 
 a penalty not exceeding forty shillings. 
 
 NOTE. — In addition£to this enactment two precautions are taken : (1) The 
 Sanitary Inspector collects all library books in houses where infection 
 occurs ; and (2) the Medical Officer of Health reports to the Librarian 
 every case of notifiable infectious disease occuring in the district. 
 Under certain circumstances books are destroyed instead of being 
 disinfected.

 INDEX OF SUBJECTS 
 
 REPRESENTED IN THE 
 
 PUBLIC LIBRARIES. 
 
 This Index forms a key to books arranged by Subjects, 
 and also to the books which cannot be classed by Subject and 
 are arranged by the names of authors. With its assistance 
 readers may find the place of books 
 
 (1) About persons (e.g., Warren Hastings, or Admiral 
 
 Blake). 
 
 (2) About places (e.g., Scotland, or London). 
 
 (3) About things (e.g., furniture, or tools). 
 
 (4) By English and Foreign literary men (e.g., Matthew 
 
 Arnold, Anatole France). 
 
 Thus the Index refers to all impersonal subjects, to 
 biographies, and to the names of the authors of works which 
 cannot be classed conveniently by subject, such as poems, 
 plays, collections of essays. English Novelists are not 
 indexed, as they are dealt with fully in the " Class List of 
 Prose Fiction," but Foreign novelists are included. 
 
 The Numbers on the right hand of each column are 
 Subject or Class Numbers. All the Books upon one Subject 
 bear the same class number ; for example, all books — 
 
 on Smith, Adam, are numbered M03 
 on London ,, ,, U07 
 
 on Arithmetic ,, „ T03 
 
 The Books are arranged on the shelves in the 
 order of these subject numbers. 
 
 Readers should note that the Index not only refers them 
 to the place in which Books upon a Subject aie kept, but to 
 books upon allied subjects — books on Adam Smith, for 
 example, being arranged beside books on Political Economy ; 
 books on London beside books on Middlesex ; books on 
 Arithmetic beside books on Algebra. 
 
 The Index is intended to serve for the Central and 
 Seacombe Home Reading, and the Central Reference Libraries.
