"Tins motion was agreed to, and Messrs Waln. Evans and Powel appointed Two columns over, under the proceedings for April 28, theCentuzelreported that the House had been informed by the Senate of its concurrence in the resolution Members of the Joint Committee attacked their responsibilities at once and by June 20 had placed an order with the London booksellers Cadell and Davies. Some of the desired items were difficult to locate, others proved to be unobtainable. By Decen- ber, nevertheless, 152 works in 74Q volumes, packed in the often-cited 11 hair Growth of the trunks and one case, were ready for shipment. Now, 175 years later, that collection collections of books and maps has grown in number to 70.5 million pieces, many of them in forms undremed of by the worthy booksellers of 1800. At the close of fiscal 1975, the collections numbered dose to 17.5 million books and pamphlets, 31.7 million manuscripts, 3.5 million maps, 1.1 million microfiche, almost 3.5 million volumes and pieces of music, dose to 8.5. million photographic negatives, prints, and slides, and 1.3 million technical reports in hard copy. There were 102,000 bound volumes and 294,000 reels of newspapers, 420,000 micr opaques, 754,000 microfilm reels and strips, 220,000 motion picture reels; 392,0 discs and 75,0.00 tape and wire recordingS, 178*,000 prints and drawings; an43,000 rosters.

'ences to the professional literature, and a chronolog of significant events related to the issue. In its turn the Law Library responded to 11,600 telephoned or malted' congressional requests for reference and research services and prepared over 650 special studies and reports No record was kept of requests made in person except in the Law Library in the Capitol. Members and committees of Congress were not the only ones who turned to the Reader and Library for reference and research assistance As usual, many of the requests were reference prompted by contemporary events and problems and dealt with such subjects as,services Japanese sources of energy, the political situation in the Middle East, women in Latin America and in Africa. current Caribbean politics, forecasts of petroleum consumption and refinery capacities, the effect of President. Andrew Johnson's impeachment on foreign policy, bilingual materials for newly arrived Vietnamese, press comments on the Sahel drought, and Presidents who have appeared before congressional committees, disclosed their personal finance4. gone abroad when no Vice President was in office, vetoed tax reduction bills. or testified before a grand jury. But the prompting of other questions was perhaps not so obvious. These also covered a wide rangethe origins of the term "kangaroo court" and the infinity sign. early Bulgarian maps, mechanical nutcrackers and sunflower-seed hullers, left- handed Presidents, seating arrangements on the Titanic, balloon technology during the Civil War, history of the hexagram, etymologies of biblical place names, educational television in Africa, architecture in Dahomey, and themes of war, peace, and death in children's literature. The Bicentennial of the American Revolution was responsible for a multitude of requests for information on such subjects as the black volunteers from Santo Domingo who covered the American retreat at the siege of Savannah in 1779; colonial recipes: funerals, literacy, prayers, religion, and the celebration of Christmas in the colonial and Revolutionary War periods; Oliver Pollock, a Revolutionary War merchant and financier; maps of the present-day area of 'the District of Columbia as it was in 1776: and the total amount of foreign aid received by the United States during the RevOlution. George Washington alone was the subject Of queues about his commission. dentures, expense account, and reported deathbed conversion to Catholicism. Numerically, exclusive of the Congres- sional Research Service, the Library staff handled 1,2017,000 questions-502,000 in person, 193,000 by correspondence, and 512,000 by telephoneprepared 230 bibliographies contaming 87,000 entries, and lent 2,20/ .000 volumes for use within the buildings and 223,000 for use outside the Library.

Abraham Lincoln. Theodore Roosevelt,, Woodrow Wilson,.Whitelaw Reid, Lucy Stoner and Henry B. Blackwell; Americana in Children's Books, High Magic in the Reraissance, American Legal EduCation, and the Natural History of the Bible. During the year the Library made 50 loans of 655 pieces for exhibit by other institutidns in the United States. Ip addition to these loans, six traveling exhibitions of mat rials from the Library's collections were shown at 27 locations. These were all pre ared by the Exhibits Office and were circulated by the Library's traveling exhibit' ns service, except one that was circulated by the International Exhibitions Foundation. A complete list of exhibits is given in the appendixes. In rekiiewing the past fiscal year, one division chief noted that scholars are relyingPublications more and more on direct questions asked by letter'rather th'in spending periods Of time at the Library searching the original so'irces Also. much'-research is done on the spot by local friends or relatives of distant scholars. There is evidence, too, in the Loan Division that readers are making greater use of such tools as theNational Union Catalogto find the books they need at nearer, more convenient locations, rather than turning immediately to the Library of Congress The Library has already felt the need of making the collections more widely known and more available to prospective users and, consequently, a great deal of staff time is spent in compiling, editing, and publishing catalogs. indexes, guides, and similar tools. During the past , 1 fiscal year the largest quinquennial in the histctry of theNational Union Catalogwas published-128 volumes, 56 morean in the previous five-year cumulation Vol- umes 105-19 contained theRegister of,AcIdition 1 Locations,which lists alimAt 10.5 million locations.

A complete list of publications appears in the appendixes Preservation Repercussions 1 the Bicentennial were felt in the Preservation Office also, where materials were prepared for the Library's own exhibition, To Set a Country Free, as well as for loan to other institutions planning similar exhibits. Of special interest were the preparations made for the display of the three focal documents in the LC exhibitionJefferson's Rough Draft of the Declaration of Independence, the Olive Branch Petition, and the Treaty of Atlierrte with France. The documents are displayed in cylindrical cases, and the Preservation Office spent considerable time in the installation and testing of the individual air-conditioning units in each one. The capability of holding temperature and humidity at optimum levels is an important forward step in the program to make rare and unusual documents known to the public through exhibits. Although fabrication difficulties delayed completion of .the large-format leaf-casting machine designed by the restoration officer, it was installed and almost ready for operation by the end of the fiscal year.

It establishes five priority objectives. expansion of TAP, the affirmative action Training, Appraisal, and Promotion program; development and implementation of programs to increase the number of Spanish-surnamed applicants, research on' the effeetiveness of the tuition support program; inquiry into the feasibility of restructuring selected positions to provide new paraprofessional opportunities for nonprofessional employees, and development and implementation of additional prtgrams to increase awareness of opportunities for women in the Library. 9 TAP program During fiscal 1975, there were 51 positions corn. nutted to the TAP program, an increase of 24 positions over fiscal 1974. Several of the fiscal 1975 projects and events of the Federal Women's Program Committee were associated with Inter- national Women's Year, culminating in a staff meeting in the Library's Coolidge Auditorium at which the Acting Librarian of Congress was the speaker. One of the objectives of the 1975 Affirmative Action Plan was the evaluation.of required qualifications in relation to the job An outside consultant was engaged to conduct the. evaluation and the project was completed in a series of studies and reports. The first report focused on an analysis of qualifications used to fill 2,578 LC positions between 1971 and 1974. The second report dealt with the origin of job postings and derivation of required qualifications. A sex and race analysis was also made of applicants appointed to 1,819 positions.
