梁啓超先生是近代中國著名的資產階級思想家、政治家、學者和藏書家，戊戌維新運動的中堅分子。他一生博學廣聞，對史學、文學、哲學、佛學、圖書館學、辨僞學及目錄學的研究多有建樹，且著書頗豐。梁先生曾遊歷西方列國，深感中國之所以落後在於「民智未開」。因此，回國後便積極倡導建立學會、興辦學堂、創建中國近代圖書館等，目的在於“啓迪民智＂，開創新風，造福社會。本文就梁啓超先生對我國目錄學的貢獻，對傳統分類法的突破，鼓吹圖書館學思想，美國圖書館的啓迪，創辦松坡圖書館，主持京師圖書館工作，籌組中華圖書館協會，捐贈飲冰室全部藏書等開創性的貢獻進行較爲詳細地論述。

Mr. Liang Qi-chao was a famous bourgeois thinker, statesman, scholar, and book-collector in the modern times of China. He was a backbone in the Reform Movement of 1898. He was learned and made a various contribution to the science of history, literature, philosophy, Buddhist philosophy, library science, discrimination studies, and bibliography. Having been in many western countries, he thought about the underdevelopment of China and realized that was due to the fact that people’s education had not yet been advanced. Hence, he advocated establishing scholarly societies, schools, and modern libraries to develop Chinese people’s intellectual resources and to benefit the entire Chinese society. This paper will make a detailed description and discourse on his groundbreaking contribution to the bibliography in China, the breakthrough he made in the traditional classification scheme, advocacy of library science, introduction of the American libraries as exemplars to the library development in China, founding of the Songpo Library, management of the Peking Library, organization of the Society of Chinese Libraries, and the donation of his whole collection of books for public access.
