About Isadore Gilbert Mudge
During her career, which started in 1903 and concluded in 1941, Isadore Gilbert Mudge \
increased student independence in research and improved reference collections with \
several specific types of sources, including dictionaries, encyclopedias, and \
atlases, among others. A pioneer in reference librarianship, she coined the phrase \
"material, mind, and method" to describe her reference philosophy when she began \
teaching the class "Bibliography and Bibliographic Methods" as an associate professor \
at Columbia's School of Library Services. She edited the American Library \
Association's Guide to Reference Books, a comprehensive bibliography of reference \
tools. To honor her career, the American Library Association created the Isadore \
Gilbert Mudge Citation in 1958 for librarians who make distinguished contributions to \
reference librarianship.
