Excerpt from Debate Index This index was begun as a card index to the debaters' manuals in the Reference Department of this Library. The increasing number of such manuals and the frequent requests for material on debates made it seem desirable to combine in one list the indexes to all the manuals, thus bringing references to all the material on one subject together, and saving the time required to consult the index of each book. The card index has been so useful here that it has been printed, in the hope that, incomplete as it is, it may also be useful elsewhere. It will be seen that it does not index single debates published separately, but is merely a combined index to the books listed at the beginning. Under each subject are given the proposition for debate, page references to the manuals, and a note indicating the material to be found there, whether briefs, references, specimen debates or synopses of debates. The Debate book of this Library, included in the list of books indexed, is a loose leaf book containing briefs and references copied from various sources or supplementing lists to be found elsewhere. The Carnegie Library Reference lists referred to are less complete manuscript lists compiled in response to requests.
