The List is arranged in chronological order and the Catalogue alphabetically by authors, subjects, and places, with numerous cross references. All Of the subject headings used in this Catalogue are given in systematic order at the beginning of the Catalogue. The publications in the List and Catalogue marked ' ' Exhausted ' ' are no longer available for distribution. All others can be obtained, free of charge, upon application to the Superintendent United States Coast and Geodetic Survey, Washington, D. C., except the Coast Pilots and Tide Tables, which are sold at the cost of paper and printing. Indexes and catalogues of the Survey's publications have previously been issued under the following titles: REPORTS ONLY. 1844-1853. "Consolidated alphabetical index."

Special publication No. 2, 1898. PART I. LIST. ANNUAL REPORTS. The Annual Report of the Superintendent of the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey, fully illustrated with maps and diagrams, is made under law to Congress at each session, and shows in detail the persons employed, the work accomplished, and the expenditures under the annual appropriations. Originally appearing as a document in the Congressional series only, it has also been published in a separate Survey edition since 1851. For 1851 separate volumes were issued for the text and for the sketches. From 1891 to 1894, inclusive, the report proper and the appendices were printed in separate volumes as Parts I and II. With these exceptions the report has been issued annually since 1851 in one quarto volume. The appendices on scientific and professional subjects include almost all of the material of that character published by the Survey, whether issued in some other series or not. The appendices have also been printed apart from the reports in "separate" form when the demand for them has warranted such publication. In the earlier reports of the Coast Survey statements of progress made in office operations will generally be found following the abstracts of reports of field work, attention also being called to office work of special interest or importance in the introductory portions of the reports. This will be found to apply to the annual reports from 1844 to 1855, inclusive. In the reports from 1856 to 1864, inclusive, in addition to the notices of office operations in the body of each report, there are appendices which contain reports from the chiefs of the divisions of the office, or, in some cases, the complete reports of the assistant in charge of the office and of the chiefs of divisions. The publication of the annual reports of the assistant in charge of the office and of the chiefs of the office divisions was discontinued during the years 1865 to 1880, inclusive, and the references to office operations were made in the same manner as those in the annual reports of the Survey from 1844 to 1855, inclusive, these references being supplemented by appendices giving lists of drawings or engravings of charts in progress or completed and by appendices detailing the field and office work relating to tides. In the annual report for 1881 the reports made by the chiefs of the computing, tidal, drawing, engraving, and hydrographic divisions of the office were printed in full; in the report for 1882 these reports were published as Appendix No. 6; in the annual reports of the Survey from 1883 to 1889, inclusive, the annual reports of the assistant in charge of office and topography and of the hydrographic inspector appear as Appendices Nos. 4 and 5; in the annual report for 1890 Appendix No. 4 contains the annual report of the assistant in charge of the office, Appendix No. 5 the annual report of the hydrographic inspector, Appendix No. 6 the annual report of the disbursing agent, and Appendix No. 7 the annual report of the assistant in charge of the office of weights and measures. It has not been deemed advisable to add to the length of this L,ist by including these office reports, embodying as they do much matter relating to routine operations and details of value chiefly for official reference. 9 fleport 1807. COAST AND GEODETIC SURVEY PUBLICATIONS. The office of standard weights ana measures was organized under the Superin- tendent of the Coast Survey in 1831, and its reports have been issued regularly since 1837 as a part of his official report. They are therefore contained in the following list of reports. Many individual scientific papers on standards based on the work of this office were printed as appendices in the report of the Superintendent of the Survey. All of them will be found grouped under the subject headings "Standards" and "Weights and measure office" in the Catalogue (Part II). On July i, 1901, the act of Congress approved March 3, 1901, creating the National Bureau of Standards, became fully operative and on that date it became an independent Bureau. 18O7-16 [Under Treasury department.
