Excerpt from Index of Mining Engineering Literature, Vol. 2: Comprising an Index of Mining, Metallurgical, Civil, Mechanical, Electrical and Chemical Engineering Subjects as Related to Mining Engineering, Also Costs of Mining and Metallurgical Operations, Etc
IN order that an index may be valuable it must be added to from time to time, including references to the new material in the current technical literature and annual proceedings of societies. To this end the Index of Mining Engineering Literature has been enlarged by the preparation of an additional volume covering the list of publications indexed for the first volume, besides a number of other publications. Still other publications would have been incorporated in this volume of the Index had they been available.
The two special features that distinguish this Index from others are cross-references and multiple references. By the former is meant the reference to other subjects under which information can be obtained relative to the special subject in question; and by the latter is meant the breaking up of a paper or article into a number of references which are distributed under appropriate headings.
