Librarian’s Report 1940-41

PUBLISHED BY CORNELL UNIVERSITY AT ITHACA, N. Y. Monthly in September, October, and November Semi-monthly, December to August inclusive [Entered as second-class matter, December 14, 1916, at the post office at Ithaca, New York, under the act of August 24, 1912]

CORNELL UNIVERSITY LIBRARY REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 1 9 4 0 -4 1 To the President of the University: Si r : I have the honor to submit the report of the Librarian of the University Library for the year ended June 30, 1941. The report for last year attempted to show how the annual accessions numbers had been rising during the past few years. Although the sum available for books this year was practically as large as in the last, the number of books added was smaller, 15,821 volumes as against 16,359 volumes in 1939-40. This is due to the war in Europe which has closed almost all continental markets to us and has slowed up the intercourse with the markets of Great Britain. Actual losses of books in transportation due to the war have been negligible. A significant event of the year was the application of a new allotment scheme for books purchased by the general library. The Library Board (reorganized in 1938) devoted many hours to the consideration of this problem and made its new apportionment only after a careful consideration of the complicated situation in the Cornell library organization. The fact that there are in the University several independent libraries (some of them state-supported), apart from the general University Library, and the fact that some departmental libraries be­ longing to the endowed colleges apply departmental funds to the purchase of books not administered by the general library, and the fact that some subjects are especially provided for in the general library by specific endowment, all were taken into consideration by the Library Board, when it elaborated the allotment scheme which went into effect this year, and which is reproduced below. This scheme affects the library’s free book funds only. Endowed incomes for specific subjects like Dante and Petrarch, ($246) Icelandic ($328), books on China ($2,050), Entomology ($435), Veterinary Medicine ($776), Chemistry ($205), and several other smaller special incomes are not included in the apportionment. The sum of free funds, thus allotted is $34,275. The sum of money actually avail­ able at the beginning of the year, including balances from last year was $53,470 as against $42,826 in 1939-40. The amount actually expended on books this year was $36,222 as against $37,028 in 1939-40.

In connection with the use of restricted funds, it may be mentioned that the Van Cleef library, formerly supported by the income of a Van Cleef endowment and devoted especially to the needs of the Medical Department, has now become a library for the Department of Zoology, supported by a special grant of $1,000, made by the Trustees from general funds. When the Medical Department in Ithaca ceased to exist, in July 1939, the endowment income was, by the terms of the gift, transferred to the Law School. As has been pointed out in all reports of recent years, the problem of housing and handling the growing book collection becomes more and more serious. It is the Librarian’s fervent hope and prayer that the consideration of increased space in the shape of a new wing on the library building will not be delayed as long as in the case of the last addition, and that the even more pressing problem of work­ ing space for a harassed staff, which was not affected by the last addition, will be solved in the not too distant future.

STAFF During the year the staff was increased by the appointment of Miss Marie Dehner as a Documents Assistant. Miss Elizabeth Lyon, of the Catalogue Division, resigned when she was married. She is to be replaced by the appoint­ ment of Mrs. Dorothy Hartmann.

ACCESSIONS The figures of Miss Ingersoll, Supervisor of Accessions, show that the total amount spent for books, periodicals, and binding was $36,222.

GIFTS The number of donors included in our donors list amounts to 729. Of the books added to the general collection 4,856 were gifts as against 5,735 purchased items. The number of periodicals received b y gift was 1,294. To the publishers and editors of these periodicals as well as to the learned societies, foundations, corporations, and government agencies, domestic and foreign, who sent us their publications, we offer our continued thanks. And the same expression of thanks is due to the members of the faculty, officers, and students of the University who have con­ tinued their generosity to the library as in past years. And we are equally grateful to the hundreds of individual donors, many of whose names have become a stand­ ing feature in our donors list. During the last year, the income of an endowment fund of $10,000 established by the late Mr. Willard Austen, Librarian Emeritus of the Cornell University Library, became available. The fund is to be used for “books dealing with bib­ liography in general and general reference books.” Messrs. John R. Armstrong, Richard S. Hill, and Elmer M. Johnson, Mrs. Louise F. Peirce, and the Current Events Club of Ithaca, came to our aid with very welcome cash donations. Professor F. G. Marcham with Messrs. Arthur Ferguson, Carl Gustafson, Richard Leighton and Christopher Morley, jr., united in providing a special fund toward the purchase of British government documents. s Mr. Victor Emanuel purchased for the Wordsworth Collection at various times during the year some seventy Wordsworth autograph letters and other Words­ worth items. From the Estate of the late R. P. Clark of Binghamton, N. Y., we received 960 books and pamphlets, and from the Estate of the late Professor Pre­ served Smith we received from Professor Smith’s personal library in Ithaca 611 books and pamphlets. Professor C. S. Northup gave us 118 books and pamphlets from his own library. From Mr. Ralph M. Brown, of the Class of 1901, came a most interesting collection of books containing illustrations by Joseph Pennell number­ ing 87 volumes. Mr. and Mrs. William F. E. Gurley, donors of long standing, added generously to our collections of Shakespeareana and the drama. Other old friends, who con­ tinued their long line of gifts to the library were Professor Morris Bishop, Dr. Nellis Crouse, Dr. Henry P. de Forest, Mr/Carter Kingsley, Professor Walter F. Willcox, and Professor A. H. Wright. A very unusual gift came to us through the kind offices of Mr. Carter Kingsley from Miss Charlotte Howe of Prattsburgh, N. Y. and Mr. Paul J. Howe of Ridge­ wood, N. J. It consisted of several copies of Prattsburgh, N. Y., newspapers in the eighteen-sixties and seventies, The Prattsburgh Advertiser, vol. 1-5, (1867- 1872) and a practically complete copy of The Prattsburgh News, vol. 1-48 (1872- 1920). At the same time we received from Mr. James McCall of Bath, N. Y. a very rare item, a number of the first newspaper printed in Western New York, The Bath Gazette and Genesee Advertiser, vol. 2, no. 2, for Dec. 21, 1797. Among the individual gifts of interest were a “Plan of the City of New York” (1803) from Mr. Lyle C. Bacon; “Virginia colonial abstracts,” vol. 9 and 10, from Mr. Beverly Fleet; “Ten years and William Shakespeare: a survey of the pub­ lishing activities of the Limited Editions Club from October 1929 to October 1940,” from the Club; “ Documents illustrative of the origin, development, and activities of the Chinese Customs Service,” from the Inspectorate General of the Service; and “The Maze Collection of Chinese junk models in the Science Mu­ seum, London 1939,” from Sir Frederick Maze, Inspector General of Chinese Customs; Martin P. Nilsson’s “Greek popular religion,” from the American Council of Learned Societies; “Robert Louis Stevenson’s handwriting, illus­ trated” and Gertrude Hill’s “The Edwin J. Beinecke Collection of Robert Louis Stevenson” from Mr. Edwin J. Beinecke; “ Now and Then,” vol. 4 and 5, a Penn­ sylvania historical journal, together with a photostat of vol. 1 of the same journal, and also several volumes on diatoms from Mr. John P. Young. Mrs. A. J. Hall gave us a number of older newspapers and books, and through Miss Mary Hull we received old local maps and other documents of historical interest from the library of the late Professor Charles H. Hull. To Miss Hull we also owe the hand­ some bronze tablet erected to the memory of Professor Hull in the main vestibule of the library building. O t t o K i n k e l d e y , Librarian.
