Excerpt from The Bibliography of the Foraminifera Recent and Fossil: Including Eozoon and Receptaculites; 1565-Jan. 1, 1886 This bibliography, which is the result of five years of research, is based largely on facilities afforded by the libraries of the Amer ican Museum of Natural History and of the New York Academy of Sciences, - facilities which are not enjoyed by many scientific students. At the beginning I had no idea of presenting this work to the scientific world. When I began the study ofthe foraminifera I had no knowledge whatever of that which had been done in this branch of science. After I commenced look ing up the subject the references accumulated so rapidly that I thought it might be well to collect and put them in shape so that they might be useful to others as well as to myself. After three years' labor I applied to Mr. H. B. Brady, F. R. S., for information pertaining to the subject. He at once informed me that he had in press a bibliography of the same character, and kindly offered to give me any assistance he could. When the British Association for the Advancement of Science met at Montreal, in 1884, I met in New York Mr. James Thom son, F. G. S., a member from Scotland, to whom I Spoke of my work, asking his advice about proceeding with it. He urged me to continue, and to finish it, as it would become accessible to a great number of workers who could not possess the valuable monograph of Mr. H. B. Brady.
