ENGLISH AND IRISH PERIODICALS PUBLISHED 1800-1914
COLLECTED IN THE MEMORIAL LIBRARY--UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN AT MADISON
This checklist was developed primarily as an aid to collection development. As such, it was a useful, although admittedly incomplete, list. But requests from students for this type of information have persuaded the compiler to give it wider circulation in this preliminary format. The Memorial Library's collections are notably strong in literary, labor and socialist periodicals, reflecting a collecting committment as old as the institution. In addition there are extensive holdings of historical, political and scientific journals, although this last category is even more imperfectly represented than the others because it was impossible to include the extensive holdings in branch libraries. Additions are constantly being made as new titles are found and others added. Finally, the decision was made early in the compilation to include titles in the Center for Research Libraries in Chicago as we found them. Its collections are also extensive and some of the University's holdings have been deposited there. But, again, this listing is incomplete. The canpiler would be grateful for any additions or corrections. The work could not have been completed without the assistance of Nancy Anderson, Mogens Knudsen and particularly Vicky Loebel, who typed the manuscript.
