Abstract
Presently the Information Center for Ropeway Studies Collection has over 800 books on diferent aspects of ropeways systems. There are the usual books such as CF&I Roebling Wire Rope Handbook or Aerial Tramways and Funicular Railways by Z. Schneigert. One collection of books from Casper D. Meals is a unique compendium of varied materials (papers, journal articles, manufacturers catalogues, etc.) that were bound into books during the first decades of the 20th Century. The binding of the printed materials into books captured a "snapshot" of the wire rope industry for a short time period in each book. This paper will look at several of the information threads that weave through these books and several other book series in the Collection.
