Public Library lists

Post by JohnEDavies »

In the late 1920s the Pembrokeshire County Library published a list of books (around 260) they held upon 'Agriculture, Horticulture, Etc'. The etc included volumes upon botany, chemistry, geology, fruit growing and forestry. It includes one or two earlier items dating back to the late eighteenth century (the General View of Hassall), but the majority are books published since 1900.

Does anyone know - did public libraries publish such lists generally?
