LIBRARIAN'S REPORT

The Reverend F. 5. Luther, LL.D., President, Trinity College, Hartford, . Sir: - In accordance with the Statutes, I submit herewith the report on the work and progress of the Library for the year ending May 31, 1912, the third which I have had the honor to make. It is possible again to record an increase in the attendance. The total figures are 13,773, as against 13,112 last year. The greatest increase 'occurred in the evening period. That this " attendance " is equivalent to " use," most conservatively esti­ mated, is evident when the method of keeping the statistics is taken into account, i. e. that of counting an individual but once in the day period and once in the evening period, however many times he may come in during those periods. No statistics of the circulation of books have been kept in recent years but the Librarian believes that such statistics would be of interest, if not of value, for purposes of comparison, and proposes to keep the record the corning year. There has been a marked increase in the number of books borrowed, for various members of the Faculty, from the libraries of Yale and Harvard, whose liberality in this respect is highly appreciated. Four volumes were loaned by this Library to individuals through this inter-library loan system.

GIFTS. A complete list of donors will be found in the appendixes. The most noteworthy gifts were the following: McKenney and Hall. History of the Indian Tribes of North America, with biographical sketches of the principal chiefs, embellished with one hundred and twenty portraits, from the Indian Gallery in the Department of War, at Wash­ ington. 3 volumes. , 1837-1844. Folio. The ' plates are hand colored. Presented by Mr. Robert McClelland Brady, T.C., 1890, of Detroit. The volumes have an added interest from the fact that they come from the library of Mr. Brady's grandfather, Honorable Robert McClelland, 2 18 TRINITY COLLEGE. of Michigan, 1851-1852, and Secretary of the Interior, 1853- 1857, under President Pierce. One hundred and eighty-four volumes, largely in the fields of history and economics, were presented by Rev. Pro­ fessor Henry Ferguson, LL.D., '68. From Mr. Sydney G. Fisher, LL.D., '79, were received fourteen volumes, ten pamphlets, and two specimens of paper currency. Mrs. T. W. Lippitt of Hartford presented five volume~, including Von Falke's "Greece and Rome." Mrs. Henry C. McCook of Devon, Pennsylvania, presented fourteen volumes and seven pamphlets, all works of her late husband, the Rev. Henry C. McCook, D.D., Sc. D., LL.D. A complete set of the valuable reports of the Monetary Commission with various other government publica­ tions, was received through the courtesy of Hon. George P. McLean. Professor H. F . Osgood, LL.D. (T.C., 1901) presented six volumes and ninety-six pamphlets comprising some of his own valuable contributions to natural history. The Records of the Federal Convention of 1787. Edited by . · 3 volumes. Subscribers' edition, number 91. Yale Press, 19II, were the gift of Hon. and Mrs. Edward L. Smith. This important and definitive edition of these de­ bates was particularly welcome for with it the Library possesses a complete collection of all printed editions. On Commencement Day, June 28, 19II, Mr. Louis M. Potter, '96, presented, in response to a previous request of the Librarian, twenty-four photographs of his noteworthy and inspiring works in sculpture. These have been mounted and placed on exhibition in the Library during the winter. With the bronze busts of President Pynchon and President Luther, which are at present in the Library, an opportunity is given to judge and appreciate the high position Mr. Potter holds in the world of art. A large collection of manuscript, essays, and notebooks in chemistry and physics, the work of Trinity students, was re­ ceived from the estate of President T. R. Pynchon through Mr. H. A. Castle of Plainfield, Connecticut. LIBRARIAN'S REPORT. 19 From the Commission on Archives of the General Con­ vention of the Protestant Episcopal Church the Library re­ ceived the worthily edited and the handsomely printed volumes of the Hobart Correspondence 1757-1804, in three volumes.

CATALOGUING. A beginning has been made in the work of combining the old and the new card catalogues. With the help of the assist­ ants in the Treasurer's Office, during the summer period, the cards were arranged in one alphabet. The next step, of the elimination of duplicate cards, and using the old cards as a basis for ordering Library of Congress cards when they are found available by consulting the complete file of the Library of Congress cards at the Connecticut State Library, has had to be deferred. For new acquisitions there were ordered 309 printed cards from the Library of Congress.

BINDING. The books bound during the year number 152, at a cost of $164.80. ASSISTANTS. From the student assistants, Messrs. W. A. Bird, IV., '12, S. H. Evison, '13, E. P. Wroth, '14, Horace Fort, '14, and H. R. Hill '15, the Librarian has received a ready response to the demands made upon them. Messrs. Evison and Bird were in charge of the Reading Room the greatest number of hours. Mr. Hill arranged and numbered the United States Documents as they were received The services of the assistants in the Treasurer's Office have continued to be invaluable.

CONCLUSION. That the Library is very fairly meeting the demands made upon it by all departments of the College is the belief of the Librarian. That there is room for increased efficiency and more valuable service, even under the present handicaps made 20 TRINITY COLLEGE. by the lack of trained assistants and the steadily increasing congestion on the shelves, is also true. It is not enough simply to meet the demands. Surrounded with books of varying value, it should be the ideal and the most satisfying of all the work of those in charge of a collection of books to lead men to read the best and to read wisely and well. As Thoreau states it, " To read well, that is, to read true books in a true spirit, is a noble exercise, and one that will task the reader more than any exercise which the customs of the day esteem. It requires a training such as the athlete underwent, the steady intention almost of the whole life to this object. Books must be read as deliberately and reservedly as they were written." All of which is respectfully submitted,
