PREFATORY NOTE Three sources have been drawn upon for the present compilation: one, a group of lists issued under the direction of the former Chief Bibliographer, now the Chief Assistant Librarian, namely, "Banks and banking, 1903," "First and second banks of the United States, 1908," and "Currency and banking, 1908;" another, material brought together by the present Chief Bibliographer in various typewritten lists with a view to supplementing the group just mentioned and laying particular stress on certain phases of the subject in its recent development; and finally, an independent undertaking begun by the present Chief of the Periodical Division during his service as librarian of the National Monetary Commission. The present compilers are therefore mainly responsible for the references to writings of a date later than any in the printed lists mentioned above, and writings chosen with particular regard to present aspects of the monetary question. The resulting list is broad in the area covered rather than all-inclusive of the resources of the Library of Congress, or of the library of the National Monetary Commission. The latter was transferred to the Library of Congress by the act of August 23, 1913, and the list here offered is also, in a certain sense, a catalogue of the more serviceable part of the collection made by the Commission. In handling such an extensive literature, a classification which separated foreign countries from the United States was found convenient. In the arrangement of the references, therefore, bibliographies and general works are given first, then follow references devoted to particular countries arranged alphabetically. The separate section given to the United States is subdivided along lines mainly historical, and under the heading "Present-day problems" (p. 140181) will be found a selection from the very great mass of pamphlet literature which recent discussions have called forth. Finally, a considerable number of references covering certain special aspects of the general subject are then arranged under the headings, "Crises (panics)," "Guaranty of bank deposits," "Credit and credit instruments," "Clearing houses," and "Foreign exchange." Minuter subjects should be sought for in the Subject Index, which has been made analytical as far as the character of the entries permitted. HERBERT PUTNAM Librarian of Congress H. H. B.
