Summary:
This series contains copies of cards (WPA form 22 HR) compiled for the American Imprints Inventory, a project under the Historical
Records Survey. The cards give basic cataloging data on books and pamphlets printed in the United States before 1877. They
were compiled by field workers who surveyed most public and private institutional libraries in New York State. The original
cards were sent to the National Editor of the American Imprints Inventory, where checklists of imprints were planned and prepared.
