Margaret Mann (April 9, 1873 – August 22, 1960)[1] was a noted librarian and teacher who dominated the field of cataloging for almost fifty years.[2] The bulk of her career was spent as a professor at the University of Michigan. She was hired as one of the first three full-time faculty members in the department of library science at Michigan in 1926 and retired in 1938.[2] In 1999, American Libraries named her one of the "100 Most Important Leaders We Had in the 20th Century".[3]
