- Library Books for High Schools. Bulletin, 1917, No. 41 Wilson, Martha, Comp. School Libraries High Schools Educational Finance Psychology Ethics Mythology Politics Government Role Economics Educational Research Industry Business Folk Culture Science Education Physiology Hygiene Physical Education Engineering Education Agricultural Education Home Economics Communications Transportation Vocational Education Job Training Fine Arts Photography Literature Fiction Travel Biographies History Modern History American Indians United States History Library Materials This list is based on the Minnesota school library list, Books for High Schools, 1913-14. The number of titles has been materially increased to include the suggestions of many high-school teachers, specialists in the Bureau of Education, high-school librarians, public librarians, and commission workers. The effort has been to provide a thoroughly standard list of tested books for a foundation library, to include as much fresh material as possible, and to suggest books of interest and value to pupils of the high-school age. The following topic areas are covered: (1) Library economy; (2) Psychology; (3) Conduct of life, ethics; (4) Mythology; (5) Politics and government; (6) Economics; (7) Education; (8) Commerce, commercial geography; (9) Folklore, legends; (10) Science (general), nature study; (11) Vocational guidance; (12) Physiology, hygiene, and physical training; (13) Engineering; (14) Agriculture (general); (15) Home economics; (16) Business, communications, transportation; (17) Manual training and shopwork; (18) Fine arts (general), photography; (19) Literature (general); (20) Fiction; (21) Travel; (22) Biography; (23) Ancient history; (24) Modern history (general European); (25) Indian life and history; and (26) American history.
