Synopsis

Excerpt from Australasian Shakespeareana: A Bibliography of Books, Pamphlets, Magazine Articles, &C., That Have Been Printed in Australia and New Zealand, Dealing With Shakespeare and His Works

The making of this bibliography would have been impossible if I had not the assistance of many helpers, to whom I gratefully acknowledge my thanks. I am under special obligations to Mr. Hugh Wright, Miss M. Windeyer and the other members of the staff of the Mitchell Library, Sydney, who have given valuable help in my researches at this Institution, unique in its wonderful col lection of Australians, and which contains many works not to be found else where. Mr. J. R. G. Adams, the General Secretary of the South Australian Public Library, has most kindly furnished me with useful information, and many of the Adelaide entries would not have been obtained by me, except through the help afforded by the Assistant Librarian, Mr. H. J. Keyes, who has added to my original proofs a number of items relating to the University Society. Unfortunately, I have not been able in all cases to index them under the author's name, as the greater part of the book was already in type. They are, however, included in their proper place under Proceedings or Journal. Mr. E. L. Armstrong, of the Melbourne Public Library, and his staff, likewise afforded me every assistance, both personally when inspecting the magnificent collection of that Institution, and also subsequently by replying to my enquiries. The Librarians of the Queensland and West Australian Public Libraries, Messrs. W. E. Hawkins (the President of the Shakespeare Society of Bertram Stevens and George Harris of Sydney, A. H. Turnbull of Wellington, New Zealand, and L. Phillips of Auckland, New Zealand, have also given me assistance, for which I am much indebted.
