Excerpt from Catalogue of Scientific Papers, 1800-1900, Vol. 1: Subject Index In 1898 it was determined to undertake the continuation for the period 1884 - 1900, and at the same time to prepare material for a Subject Index for these last seventeen years of the century. It was afterwards decided that one Index should be made to the papers of the whole of the Nineteenth Century; and to bring this Index into relation with the International Catalogue of Scientific Literature, which deals with publications subsequent to 1900, the Index was to be arranged in accordance with the schedules of the different sciences which form the basis of the International Catalogue. The extent of the work for the period 1884 - 1900 proved to be so great that the resources of the Royal Society would have been quite inadequate for its completion. Its continuation has been made possible by liberal donations received from various sources. The Catalogue is especially indebted to Dr Ludwig Mond, a member of the Committee entrusted with its preparation, who has encouraged and forwarded its progress in every way for many years past; in particular, in addition to similar generous donations at earlier stages, Dr Mond recently undertook to provide an extremely liberal subsidy during the three years 1907 - 9, which has enabled the work to be pressed forward rapidly. The Subject Index will be published as separate Index-volumes for each of the seventeen Sciences of the Schedules of the International Catalogue, viz. Mathematics, Mechanics, Physics, Chemistry, Astronomy, Meteorology, Mineralogy, Geology, Geography, Palaeontology, Biology, Botany, Zoology, Anatomy, Anthropology, Physiology, and Bacteriology.
