Biographical History
Librarian and author, third Librarian of the Newberry Library, 1909-1920.
Born in England, Carlton moved in 1882 to the United States for his schooling. Prior to Carlton's tenure at the Newberry, he served as librarian at Trinity College, Conn. While at the Newberry, Carlton reorganized and systemized all library procedures; he abandoned the Rudolph Indexer catalogue, revived the card catalogue, and started using Library of Congress cataloguing for the collections. In 1920, Carlton left the Newberry for an unsuccessful venture as rare book dealer. Afterwards, he worked at the American Library in Paris, the Hamilton (Ontario) Public Library, and the Williams College Library.
