Principles of arrangement, will differ with each type of bibliography. Six methods of arrangement. An author bibliography best arranged chronologically by dates of publication, supplemented with subject and title indexes. For a subject bibliography the best arrangement may be classified, with an alphabetical index to authors and subjects. The best bibliography is arranged and indexed so that its contents may be found from the point of view of author, title, subject, place, or personal names. The student should examine as many bibliographies as possible, and note their arrangements. He should also possess a thorough knowledge of the practical methods of compiling bibliographies.
