Note 182 — Chapter V · Bibliographies of Bibliographies as Periodical and Cooperative Enterprises
Reading edition
Vorstius rightly believed in 1948 that the Index bibliographicus was entirely out of date; see his Ergebnisse und Fortschritte der Bibliographie in Deutschland seit dem ersten Weltkrieg, Zentralblatt für Bibliothekswesen, Beiheft 74 (Leipzig, 1948), p. 36. Besterman's third edition goes far to meet Vorstius's objections.
