The one written in 1908 by Jane Wright, then librarian of the Cincin- nati Art Museum, describes why art librar- ianship was different from other branches at a time when art libraries were growing rapidly and developing, or finding the need for, some of the bibliographical ap- paratus we now take as standard: indexes of periodical articles and reproductions, such as the Periodical Index of the Ryerson Library of the Art Institute of Chicago or the H. W. Wilson Company's Art Index; in- dividualized thesauri for local collections, such as the A very collection at Columbia University; and picture and vertical files whose value has been proven by the sub- sequent generations of researchers.	cache/crl-14274.pdf	txt/crl-14274.txt
