Every serious student of English, no matter how many years separate him from the M.A. or Ph. D. degrees, must develop to a high degree the essential quality of independence which allows him to pursue investigation in his subject more or less on his own. He cannot continue to bother librarians for every specific source of information which he way need in pursuit of his assigned or self-imposed tasks either in class or out. He should know his way around the area of bibliography--the earlier in his academic career, the better. Surely his first ventures in this direction should not await his entrance into graduate school, although the fact is that few colleges or universities furnish him with more than nodding acquaintance with the more truly helpful reference sources before he achieves his A. 8. In recognition of this situation, the first section of this handbook has been written.
