SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION

NOTE. In its latest price-list the Smithsonian Institution publishes this notice: "Applicants for these publications are requested to state the grounds for their requests, as the Institution is able to supply papers only as an aid to the researches or studies in which applicants are especially interested. The papers included in this list are distributed gratis, except as otherwise indicated. Publications should be ordered by the publication number, and arranged in sequence. The serial publications of the Smithsonian Institution are as follows: 1. Smithsonian contributions to knowledge; 2. Smithsonian miscellaneous collections; 3, Smithsonian reports. No sets of these are for sale or distribution, as most of the volumes are out of print. The Contributions to knowledge and Miscellaneous collections are distributed without charge only to public libraries, learned societies, institutions, and specialists in this country and abroad. The Smithsonian reports are regularly distributed by the Institution to libraries throughout the world, and only a limited number of the volumes remain to supply other demands. No general mailing-list of individuals is maintained. The reports can be purchased from the Superintendent of Documents, Government Printing Office, Washington, D. C. Remittances for publications not distributed gratuitously should be made payable to the 'Smithsonian Institution.' Applications from libraries should be accompanied by a statement of the number of volumes which they contain and the date of their establishment, and should have the endorsement of a Member of Congress."

The annual reports are the only Smithsonian publications that are regularly issued as public documents. All the others are paid for from the private funds of the Institution, but as they are usually regarded as public documents and have free transmission by mail they are listed in the Monthly catalogue.
