The College Library

On the resignation of Professor Bisbee, as college librarian, the responsibility for conducting the library was placed in the hands of the Library Committee, pending the election of a successor to Professor Bisbee. During the summer, Mr. O. C. Davis, head cataloguer, resigned to take charge of the library at Waltham, Mass. His place has been filled by Mr. Chester B. Clapp, formerly of the cataloguing staff at Harvard. Miss Newell remains at the head of the delivery department, and Mr. Rugg retains general supervision of the reference room. There are, as usual, a number of graduate and undergraduate student assistants.

It would no doubt be desirable if a new librarian and a new library building might be brought into simultaneous conjunction. Present indications point to no immediate possibility of a new building. It may be that a librarian will be appointed within the year.
