Provenance

Where it came from

The 1855-1856 Catalogue of the New-York State Library serves as a significant administrative record of the institution's holdings during the mid-19th century. Published by the state in Albany, it reflects the deliberate effort of the library to organize its rapidly expanding collection of law, history, and general literature for public and legislative reference. It functions as a snapshot of the intellectual priorities of New York State during a period of significant growth for public archives in the United States.

The design of the volume adheres to the formal, utilitarian aesthetic typical of state-issued bibliographic publications of the era. Compiled by the library staff under the direction of the Board of Regents, the work was structured to provide accessibility to scholars and government officials, emphasizing logical categorization and comprehensive indexing. It was well-regarded at the time of its release for the clarity of its organization, which helped establish a standard for institutional library management in North America.
