"This four-volume catalogue will describe the Cotsen Children's Library's non-circulating collection ... at Princeton: the first two volumes will comprise the twentieth-century imprints, the third volume the imprints from the late fifteenth century to 1899, and the fourth, the index"--Volume 1, page xvii-xviii.

"The first volume ... was issued in 2000, comprising the first half of the 20th-century imprints. The second volume ... was issued in 2003, completing the record of the 20th-century imprints ... The two volumes for the 19th-century imprints ... were issued at the very end of 2018 (with the forward-dated imprint of 2019). The last descriptive volumes ... covering pre-1801 imprints, were published in spring 2020. These volumes of index, published in 2021, complete the project, save for the forthcoming special volumes devoted to the Newbery family of publishers ..."--Volume [7], page ix.
