Floyd Family Collection:
Miscellaneous Textbooks Catalog

This catalog of miscellaneous textbooks was prepared both from an examination of textbooks and other materials in the Floyd Family Collection and from information provided by on-line OCLC records and other sources. It has been edited to include the names of all authors, places of publication, and publishers. Related titles have been placed under a guide name or title. Generally, arrangement is by author, title, and date of publication.

In all instances, each record contains the main entry first. In the case of author main entries, the last name of the first author appears first. Titles are in capital letters, but punctuated as they appear on the title page except where punctuation or other information was supplied for clarity. Supplied punctuation or other information appears in brackets. Publisher information is generally as it appears on the title page, except a string of publication place names concludes with "and" before the final place regardless of whether this conjunction was included or only implied in the work itself. Volumes and series statements are reported in their own fields as well, but the source of information may include sources in addition to the item. Pagination is reported as if from a perfect title in a separate field but is restricted to pagination appearing in Arabic numerals. Except for the already explained conditions in this paragraph, variations in reporting any field of the bibliographical item appear in the note field.

The note field indicates the number of copies held and observations on the books in general, working from the cover to the title page. Variations in different copies are noted thereafter, including occasional identifications of Indiana schools or libraries where the books were used. Be aware that these notes are not exhaustive and a great many of the books contain annotations, doodles, etc.

The Floyd Family is responsible for donating about half the books in the collection, with the rest coming from ISU alumni, school teachers, collectors, and antiquarian booksellers. The emphasis of the collection is on English curriculum materials and the basic sciences and social studies, but other curricula receive representative attention, providing a resource for the study of methodology, popular mores, and value systems, to name only three possibilities. A complete list will be published separately at a later time.
