System in the selection of books which are to be diseussed is another fundamental condition. Good bibli- ography should be up-to-date, name- ly, on the one hand it should deal promptly with important new pybli- cations, and on the other hand, it should indicate and criticize very fully literature (also older literature) in connection with important events and ineidents. It should, as far as this is possible, discuss the various books in connection with similar pub- lications appertaining to the same sphere. Entire literary or ideological tendencies should be singled out and analyzed. 5. Selection of reviewers is a third fundamental condition for good bibli- ography in the Party press.
