The resignations of John M. Clark and Peter Stenger Grosscup from the Board of Directors were received and accepted. To fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Mr. Clark, the Board elected, at its meeting on April 2oth, Chauncey B. Borland, and this election was duly approved by the Chief Justice of Illinois. The Board is now composed of the following persons: Robert T. Lincoln, Frank S. Johnson. Marvin Hughitt, Thomas D. Jones, John J. Mitchell, Leonard A. Busby, Robert Forsyth, Chauncey Keep, Frederick H. Rawson, Albert A. Sprague II, Walter B. Smith, and Chauncey B. Borland, together with William Hale Thompson, Mayor of Chicago, and Eugene R. Pike, Comptroller of Chicago, ex-ofncio members. The officers of the Library are as follows: President, Marvin Hughitt; First Vice-President, Thomas D, Jones; Second Vice- President, Robert Forsyth; Secretary, Walter B. Smith; Treasurer, William J. Louderback; Librarian, Clement W. Andrews. At its meeting on April 2oth the Board approved the plans and sketches of the proposed library building and ordered working plans to be made. This was done and the plans and specifications submitted to several contractors. At a special meeting on July i4th the Board, upon considera- tion of the bids received, decided not to build at present and authorized the extension of the present leases to May i, 1920 and the obtaining of additional space. The extension has been secured and also a portion of the additional space. 7 8 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY At its meeting on June i6th, the Board adopted amend- ments to Sections 17 and 18 of the By-Laws, denning more exactly the duties of the Committee on Administration and the Committee on Buildings and Grounds. The European war has affected the development and use of the Library in many ways, and in some of them quite seriously. The growth of the collections has been retarded and made less symmetrical, and there has been a diminution in the recorded attendance and use. Nevertheless, the recorded attendance was 158,834, and the total use was more than 584,000 books and periodicals. The collections have been increased by 15,114 volumes and about 10,500 pamphlets, and now contain 368,508 volumes, 12,285 maps and plates, and some 134,000 pamphlets. The Library has on its records 3,882 periodicals and 12,888 other serial publications, but not one-fifth of those supposed to come from the Continent of Europe have been received. For further details reference is made to the appended report of the Librarian. The report of the Treasurer, also appended, presents a statement of the income and expenditure for the year 1916, together with a statement of the assets and investments, as required by law. Respectfully submitted, MARVIN HUGHITT, President. CHICAGO, January 18, 1917.

A payment of $18,000 has been made to the architects and a construction account opened and charged with this amount. The Book Fund has been increased by the amount of the invest- ment during the year, less depreciation, and now stands at $529,847.67. The income of the Huntington W. Jackson Fund has been ex- pended for books and that of the Henry Cradle Memorial Fund for periodicals. Insurance is in force covering the property of the Library in amounts as follows: Books -------- $440,000.00 Furniture, Fixtures, etc. - 24,000.00 Portraits 6,000.00 Type and Cases ------ 5,000.00 Buildings _______ 195,000.00 Boilers -------- 20,000.00 Plate Glass (by premium only) - - - $690,000.00 WM.

To THE BOARD or DIRECTORS or THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY: Dear Sirs: We have audited the books and accounts of The John Crerar Library, for the year ending December 31, 1916; we have ex- amined and priced all securities (other than farm mortgages) which we found to have an aggregate market value exceeding the book value; and have verified the cash on hand and in banks. We accordingly certify that, in our opinion, the attached state- ments truly exhibit the cash receipts and disbursements and the operat- ing income for the said year, and the assets and liabilities at its close. THE AUDIT COMPANY OF NEW YORK, HOWARD KROEHL, CHICAGO, February 8, 1917. Western Manager. REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN r To THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY: Gentlemen: LThe effects of the European war continue to] be disturbing factors in the routine of the Library, and in an increasing degree. Undoubtedly two of these effects, less time for reading and investigation by those actively engaged in business, and the lessened attraction of the Library because of the absence of new German books and periodicals, are factors in the decrease, noted for the first time in the history of the Library, in the recorded attendance and use. Probably,^ however, a third factor is the approach to a maximum of convenient and comfortable use in the present quarters, and certainly the extreme hot weather of July was another. Rooms. The postponement of the proposed library building and the renewal of the leases of the present quarters until May i, 1920 make the question of space again an imme- diate and pressing one. The provision for readers can hardly be increased but the unexpected decrease in attendance has prevented any great inconvenience as yet. Provision has to be made for the growth of the collections and records. In part this has been done by adding about 200 feet of single stack in the present rooms at the expense of the already scanty provision for the working quarters of the staff, and in part by an arrangement to lease some 730 sq. ft. additional on the seventh floor in connection with the space now rented on that floor. This provision, however, will be insufficient for the year 1919 even if only the present reduced rate of acquisition is maintained. Routine. The following changes seem worthy of men- tion: Periodicals received by gift irregularly, even though consecutively, are not to be reported as received currently: supplementary cataloguing rules have been adopted: special rules for the cataloguing of sixteenth century books have been adopted; the alphabetical arrangement of titles under the author's name in the public and the official catalogues has been 13 14 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY simplified; and provision has been made for the treatment of a class of works intermediate between those requiring imme- diate attention and those which can await their turn in regular order. It is expected that the establishment of this inter- mediate class will diminish the number of those marked for immediate attention enough to secure it for all those so marked. Special Collections. From the income of its special fund eight titles have been added to the Huntington W. Jackson Collection on Constitutional Law, which now con- tains 891 titles, of which 105 have been purchased from the fund. The Senn Collection on the Medical Sciences is still in process of adjustment. It has been greatly consolidated and now occupies some 375 shelves, 335 with books and 40 with pamphlets. Only 129 shelves of books remain to be recata- logued and reclassified, but there are still many shelves of earlier works on surgery to be transferred from the regular shelves. The income from the fund for the Gradle Collection on the Eye and Ear has been spent for periodicals and 35 volumes have been added to the 288 already having the bookplate. There are now 693 titles of books and some 3,600 pamphlets in the collection. The Chanute Collection on Aviation contains 547 books, some 300 pamphlets, and 2,000 clippings. The Cremation Association of America has continued its support of the Collection on Cremation, which now contains 105 titles of books and 191 pamphlets. There have been added to the Collection of Trade Cata- logues 2,008 received directly from the firms and a very useful collection of 366 catalogues and 56 blue prints presented by the Equipment Supply Co. The total number in the collec- tion is now 4,060 pieces from 2,077 firms. The Collection of Orientalia purchased for the Library in 1909 by Dr. Berthold Laufer is now being arranged and cata- logued by him. It contains some 14,000 volumes and in- cludes many manuscripts and other rare works. According to the plan approved by the Board the catalogue will give full bibliographical details for all items not described in the cata- REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 15 logues already in print, but for all others will make a brief entry and refer to these catalogues for details. Attendance. The total number of visitors recorded during the year was 158,834 and the daily average was 509, a decrease of 6.48 per cent from the figures of 1915, which were 170,163 and 544 respectively. The average evening attend- ance, 107, was 4 more than in 1915. The average attendance on the five general holidays, 183, was 60 less than in 1915, but more than for any other year. The smallest attendance for the year was 118, on July 4th, and the largest was 903, on January 8th. The figures for 1915 were 138 and 988 respec- tively. The average attendance in the Senn Room for the second week of December was the same as in 1915 during the day, but eleven less in the evening. Use. While the increase in admissions to the stack from 2,472 in 1914 to 4,013 in 1915 was due chiefly to three special investigations, the further increase to 5,000 in 1916, is due chiefly to the almost daily work of some eight research workers, only four of whom are residents of the city. The number recorded is much larger than in any previous year. Of the 5,000 admissions 4,110 were by registration and 890 on presen- tation of 22 passes. Two additional passes were granted, making 100 nominally in force. The decrease in calls for books from the stacks from 195,502 in 1915 to 184,800 in 1916 is in keeping with the decrease in the recorded attendance. It is not, however, proportion- ately as large and this fact, together with the large increase in admissions to the stack, the increase in interlibrary loans, photographic reproductions, correspondence, etc., indicates that the more scholarly use of the Library increases propor- tionately if not absolutely. As no record of the use of the periodicals is now kept it has been necessary to adopt a new formula for the calculation of the total use. The one adopted is probably even more conservative than the former one, and gives as the estimated total use, 584,000 books and pamphlets. A detailed classification of the call slips for books and of admissions to the stack is given in the second table of library statistics. A comparison of the totals and percentages for each department with the corresponding figures for 1915 follows: 1 6 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY Calls for Books Admissions to the Stack 1915 iQi6 1915 1916 Percent- Percent- Percent- Percent- Total age Total age Total age Total age Unclassified 2,077 i, 800 General Works. . . . 3 J )457 16 27.ZS6 IS 107 2 IAO 2 Social Sciences .... 38,605 20 3 3,8 24 18 320 8 4O7 8 Physical Sciences . .

Even in these departments the changes are insignificant except for political economy and psychology. Why these two subjects should show this abnormality is not easy even to conjecture, though possibly a diminution in the calls for socialistic literature many explain it partly. On the other hand, the increases, absolute as well as relative, in chemistry and chemical technology are easily explained by the increased interest in these subjects caused by the effects of the war. It may be added that domestic economy has held the large gain it made in 1915. The list of the six leading subjects shows the effect of these changes. For 1916 they are: Medi- cine, engineering, trade and transportation, chemical technology, political economy, physics. Chemical technology and political economy have changed places and physics has resumed its former sixth position, replacing psychology. The recorded calls for assistance by telephone were 1,020, and the requests for information by letter were 237. The figures for 1915 were 890 and 190 respectively. The work with the cameragraph has increased remarkably, indicating the growing importance of the work, not only as a substitute for interlibrary loans, but also for special purposes, notably for records in court cases. The orders for 1916 were 225, requiring 2,885 sheets, for which charges amounting to $339-75 were made. For 1915 the figures were 142 orders, 1,725 sheets, $195.50 charges. The loans for use outside the Library continue to increase noticeably. There were granted 579 requests for 743 volumes from 87 libraries and 878 requests from 292 individuals. Ten requests from libraries were refused. In 1915 the loans were 1,328 and the refusals twelve. In sixteen cases the books REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 17 loaned were asked for while out, but in five of these the books were overdue. Three volumes have been lost in transit, two in December. Nearly all the loans to individuals are for very short periods, chiefly over night or over Sunday. The loans obtained by the Library for its readers were 33 for 58 volumes from 9 libraries. Three requests were refused. The time required to fill calls has been determined in the same way as for the previous year. The average time was 3.84 minutes, as against 4.12 in 1915. Again there is a distinct gain and one for which those responsible deserve credit, especially as there were many changes in the force. The record of the causes of failures to supply books called for which should have been supplied, is as follows: at bindery, 440; otherwise unavailable temporarily, mostly burned or stolen and not yet replaced, 20; in use by another reader, 1,418; withdrawn from general circulation, 26, not found on shelves, 280; errors of library assistants or records, 33; total, 2,217. The total is 1.18 per cent of all the call slips presented. Excluding the first four causes as unavoidable, the avoidable failures were 0.16 per cent. For 1915 they were 0.34. Here, also, there is a distinct improvement in the service. Publications. In July the Library issued its Twenty-first Annual Report, a pamphlet of 58 pages. Because of the in- creasing number of donors an edition of 6,500 copies was printed and nearly all distributed. For the same reason the type for the list of donors was changed from eight point to six point. The consideration of this change was the chief cause of the delay in issue. In October the Library issued, in a pamphlet of eight leaves, a set of Cataloguing Rules. These do not form a com- plete code but are merely supplementary to the code of the American Library Association and the British Library Associa- tion and to the supplementary rules of the Library of Congress. In December a new edition of the Officers, Committees and By-Laws was printed. To the matter contained in the earlier editions there was added the Record of Organization, making a pamphlet of 19 pages. The Supplement to the List of Books on the History of Science is now in press and will be issued early in 1917. Preparation of 1 8 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY the second edition of the List of Bibliographies of Special Subjects has been begun. It is proposed to issue this in sections, of which the first will be that of the Applied Sciences. The numbers of the various publications remaining in stock are given in the following table, which shows their distribution during the year.

The distribution of one copy of each catalogue card to the Armour Institute of Technology, Chicago Public Library, Field Museum of Natural History, Library of Congress, Northwestern University, University of Chicago, and the University of Illinois, has been continued; also the sending of one copy of each card printed by the Library to Columbia University, Harvard University, New York State Library, Princeton University, Royal Library at The Hague, St. Louis Public Library, University of California, University of Iowa, University of Michigan, and Yale University. Be- sides other special orders of limited scope completely filled, ten new standing special orders have been received. The distribution amounted to 201,691 cards, of which 83,727 were sent to the depository libraries, 2,367 sent as gifts, and 115,597 s ld or sent in exchange. The present state of the Union Catalogue is shown in the following table: Receipts in 1916 Total Library of Congress 37,472 677,772 Royal Library, Berlin 1,632 73,234 Royal Library, The Hague 3,889 24,750 Harvard University 5,120 30,281 University of Illinois 6,384 28,364 University of Chicago .... 3,122 University of California 128 746 Total 54,625 838,269 REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 19 It will be seen that a few cards have been received from Berlin and the British Government has issued a permit for the importation of quite a large number held at Copenhagen, but a much larger number, including all of 1916, are held at Leipzig. Selection and Ordering. The selection of titles of new books is up to date except for German publications. No trade lists of these have been received. The revision of the col- lection of titles previously selected has been completed. The number of orders given was considerably larger than in 1915, but is still far from meeting the requirements of the Library. The full time of one assistant should be given to the corre- spondence required to secure fugitive material, often valuable and usually not for sale, before the supply is exhausted. The full time of the present assistant should be given to trade orders. Of these, the first series, consisting of American, English and the most important foreign orders, has been com- pleted, but very little progress has been made on the second series of the less important foreign orders. During the year 8,376 orders were given. Of these 596 failed or were canceled, leaving 7,780 valid orders, covering 10,725 volumes at an estimated cost of $17,554; 6,711 orders were filled, covering with the standing orders for continuations 10,189 volumes at a cost of $15,321. There are left outstand- ing, in addition to the orders for continuations, 3,221 orders for 4,349 volumes, at an estimated cost of $7,333; of these 1,078 were given before January i, 1916. The distribution of the orders of the year, of the total to the end of 1916, and the net estimated cost, to the nearest dollar, are given in the second table of library statistics. Two unclassified orders of note have been given, one to a French and one to an Italian dealer, for collections of inexpensive material on the technical, scien- tific, and economic aspects of the war. Accessions. The total accessions of volumes for 1916 have been 15,626, of which 5,437 have been received as gifts and 10,189 obtained by purchase. Volumes made by binding serials are included in these figures. There have been with- drawn 512 volumes, leaving the net accessions for the year 15,114, which, with the 353,394 reported for 1915 make a total now on the books of 368,508. There remain to be entered 20 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY only the Laufer purchase, about 14,000 volumes, and about 1,000 volumes of the Gerritsen purchase. These have their own catalogues, and particular books can be obtained when asked for, so that the total number of volumes available is about 383,500. The accessions of maps and plates for 1916 were 1,431, and the total entries are 12,285. This work is now practically up to date. There have been received 16,224 pamphlets as gifts and from the South American purchase 483 were added; author slips for 5,864 titles were filed in the official catalogue; the classi- fied collection was increased by 10,449 pamphlets; and the collection of trade catalogues by 2,430. The number added to the classified collection includes the number of titles filed, but both these numbers have no necessary connection with the number reported as received. Many of the pamphlets received are duplicates, and many more are continuations, or for various reasons are put elsewhere than in the pamphlet collection. On the other hand, many pamphlets already in the Library have been classified and entered in the official catalogue. Of the 10,449 ne t accessions to the classified collection, 806 were from the Gerritsen purchase; 716 from the Senn Col- lection and the Newberry Medical Collection; and 477 from other accumulations, leaving some 8,450 as the new accessions of the year. Their classification is shown in the second table of library statistics. To the classified collection of some 102,000 should be added those, still unclassified, about 27,700, and the trade catalogues, about 4,000, making a total of approxi- mately 134,000. The following table shows the distribution of the net accessions for 1916 and the totals entered, by departments, together with the percentages of the classified volumes: 1916 DEPARTMENT Volumes Per cent Pamphlets Volumes Per cent Pamphlet Unclassified 480 17,837 27,720 General Works . . . 1,531 II 1,593 49,302 14 I5,8i6 Social Sciences . . . 5,602 38 4,985 96,027 27 35,682 Physical Sciences. 1,041 7 208 29,254 8 5,602 Natural Sciences. . 1,077 7 204 34,932 10 3,58l Medical Sciences . 2,413 17 1,287 69,317 20 26,332 Applied Sciences.. 2,970 20 2,172 71,839 21 14,911 Total 15,114 io,449 368,508 129,644 REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 21 Notwithstanding the irregularities due to the method of ordering and those caused by the war, the percentage of the total in each department is practically the same as at the end of 1915. The assistants in charge of periodicals report that 99 titles have been withdrawn from the general list and 253 added, and that 37 have been withdrawn from the medical list and 12 added, making a total now on the two lists of 3,914 copies of 3,882 titles. Unfortunately it cannot be said that the Library is in regular receipt of this number. Many of the European periodicals, possibly two-thirds of the French and one-third of the German, have been suspended and perhaps discontinued entirely. Many others have been published less promptly, less frequently, or in a reduced size. Even of those which have been issued regularly the receipt has been very irregular, and in the case of the German periodicals practically non- existent. For these reasons, the expenditure has been less than half the appropriation based on normal conditions, and, as ordered by the Board, the unexpended balance will be added to the Book Purchase Reserve in order to enable the Library, after the war, to fill the gaps as completely as possible. . The assistant in charge of the Continuation Record reports 660 titles added to the list and 319 withdrawn, leaving 12,888 at the end of the year. About 5,688 are obtained by sub- scription at a cost in 1916 of $2,322.74. These furnished 591 volumes entered on the record of accessions. The other continuations were received as gifts or in exchange, and fur- nished 1,822 volumes. For the gifts 1,675 first and 500 second requests were sent and 56 reported to the Librarian for personal letters. For the purchases 135 first and 25 second notifica- tions were sent and 10 reported to the Librarian. Here again the effects of the war are very noticeable. The expenditure, notwithstanding the increase of 184 in the number obtained by purchase, was less than in 1913 by $3,700 and the number of volumes bound fewer by 940. Because of the failure to receive the German trade lists it is not possible to ascertain, even approximately, how much of these deficiencies is due to discontinuance or postponement of the publications and how much simply to the inability to import. 22 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY The South American purchase has been finally adjusted, with the exception of one payment of $164.33 to be received for material sold on joint account. Allowing for this payment the net cost was $7,097 and the material secured 1,735 volumes and nearly 3,000 pamphlets. More purchases than usual were made at auction sales. The most important was that of the library of the late John B. Pearse, of Roxbury. This was the best collection on the natural sciences that has been offered in America for some time, and the Library was able to secure from it much valuable material, especially on geol- ogy, including several items long sought. In all 407 items were purchased at a cost of $473. Of individual purchases the most important were: Flora danica, colored plates, bought of Quaritch, Sowerby's British mineralogy, and Hodgin's Documentary history of education in Upper Canada. A number of periodical sets have been com- pleted, among which may be mentioned: Annals of Scottish nat- ural history, British journal of dental science, the publications of the Highland and Agricultural Society of Scotland, Railway maga- zine. Transactions of the Homeopathic Society of Pennsylvania. The number of donors continues to increase. There were received as gifts 8,844 volumes and 16,224 pamphlets from 4,291 donors. The volumes entered in the accession record were 5,437. The figures for 1915 were 7,580 volumes, 13,879 pamphlets, 3,551 donors, and 3,778 entries. A change in policy of the American Medical Association has deprived the Library of the advantage of receiving its surplus acquisitions, but Northwestern University and Lewis Institute have sent as usual their collection of college and school catalogues, and the University of the State of New York many older publications of the State in addition to its own of the year. The Government of Victoria has very kindly placed the Library on the list to receive its public documents, and prom- ises to send a collection of the earlier issues as soon as trans- portation is again normal. The Catholic University of America also has kindly agreed to send the Library its dissertations. Dr. H. E. Horton has enriched the collection on agriculture by 161 volumes and 744 pamphlets; 715 volumes on homeop- athy have been received from Dr. A. L. Hoyne; 216 volumes on REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 23 philosophy and education from the estate of Benjamin C. Burt; 188 volumes and 114 pamphlets on medicine from Dr. Frank S. Johnson; 60 volumes on slavery from Mr. Harley Mitchell, of La Grange; and a general collection of 149 volumes and 594 pamphlets from the estate of H. M. Fish. Duplicates. The sales of the year amounted to 548 bound volumes, 357 unbound volumes, 57 pamphlets and 1,503 num- bers for $505.52, and all the remainder of the South American material held on joint account for $100.00. The difference between this total of $605.52 and that of $861.51 reported by the Treasurer is due to the inclusion in the latter of refunds for overcharges and returns. On priced exchange 4 bound volumes and 7 pamphlets, valued at $2.90, have been sent; 22 bound volumes, 5 pamphlets and 61 numbers, valued at $32.40, have been received. On piece for piece exchange 20 bound volumes, 35 unbound volumes, 492 pamphlets and 71 numbers have been sent; 57 bound volumes, 18 unbound volumes, 172 pamphlets and 494 numbers have been received. Inventory. The eighth inventory has been continued and shelves 610 to 619 read, these being the Department of Medical Sciences. Sixty-one serious misplacements were corrected. Of 66,904 volumes 74 were missing, and four other volumes were not returned to the Delivery Desk. On the other hand, 15 volumes previously reported lost have been found, so that the net loss from the regular shelves was 63. Fully one-half, however, were of a character to indicate misplacement rather than theft. The losses from the reading rooms have been about the same as in past years. Nineteen are missing from the main Reading Room and two previously reported lost have been recovered; thirteen are missing from the Senn Room and one previously reported lost has been recovered. The net loss for the year is 92 and the total for 20 years is 495, or i in 759. The mutilation of books has again become more serious 5 as 46 cases have been found against 21 in 1915; but the theft and mutilation of periodicals is less so, 51 being missing and 42 found to be mutilated as against 66 and 57 in 1915. Part of this improvement may be due to the better supervision of the new Periodical Room, but part probably is due to the much smaller number of periodicals received. 24 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY Binding. On January i, 1916, there were at the bind- eries 677 volumes, and 10,604 were sent during the year; 5 were returned as incomplete, and 10,795 bound; leaving 481 at the binderies December 31, 1916. About one-quarter were bound by The Newberry Library. The cost of binding was $9,669, an average of $0.90 per volume. This is even less than in 1915, notwithstanding the higher prices of materials, but un- fortunately a very considerable increase in 1917 is foreseen. The cost of shelf-marking the accessions of the year, together with a considerable amount of repairing, inserting book-plates, and similar work, was $1,550. Catalogues. The Cataloguer reports that during the year 6,021 new titles have been prepared for print; 173 new titles typewritten; 98 titles prepared for print to replace old typewritten titles, and 35 to replace Library of Congress titles; 4,983 titles received from the Library of Congress and 3 from other libraries have been classified for the catalogues; 251 titles have been prepared for the co-operative analysis of serials. The total number of titles treated by the Cataloguer and Classifier and their assistants has been 12,950, which is next to the largest number for any year. The titles reprinted in correction of errors were 101 and for other alterations 953. Cards for 5,983 new titles and 1,013 reprinted titles were re- ceived from the printer; electrotypes for 647 new titles and 459 reprinted titles from the electrotypers. The total number of separate titles prepared for print to date is 111.221; of sets of cards received, 109,509; of electrotypes, 62,186. The number of orders sent to the Library of Congress on triplicate order sheets was 8,238 and reports were received on all. There were cards for 2,569 titles on hand January i, 1916; 6,769 were received during the year, and 2 were taken from the file of those previously withdrawn; cards for 5,331 were used, and for 697 withdrawn from the file, leaving those for 3,312 on hand December 3ist. Of those withdrawn 693 titles were returned to the Library of Congress and 4 were replaced by reprinted cards. Of the 6,769 titles received, 417 were analytical titles from 334 serial publications. Of the 3,312 titles on hand, 752 are for book orders before 1916, 1,387 for those of 1916, 326 for regular standing orders, and REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 25 847 for two special analytical orders. No new sets have been received from the University of Chicago, but three of those on hand have been used and one withdrawn, leaving 29 now on hand. The assistant in charge reports that more sets of Library of Congress cards were received and used in 1916 than in any previous year. This is due to the larger proportion of American and English works in the accessions of the year, and is another of the unforeseen results of the war. The work of the Library in the co-operative analysis of serials has been continued. It has supplied 251 titles and received cards for 891, of which 151 have been filed in the public catalogue and 132 have been sold. There have been added 30,605 cards to the classed cata- logue, which now contains some 181,900 titles on 472,693 cards, an average of 2.60 cards per title; 18,294 cards have been filed in the author catalogue, which now contains the same 181,900 titles on 319,990 cards, an average of 1.76 cards per title; 1,257 guides and 6,564 cards have been added to the subject index, which now contains 26,285 guides and 70,474 cards covering 160,300 titles, an average of 0.44 card per title. The distribution of the cards in the classed catalogue, by departments, is shown in the following table: CARDS DEPARTMENT IQl6 TOTAL General Works 9,962 157,465 Social Sciences 10,032 123,382 Physical Sciences 1,451 31,648 Natural Sciences 2,138 5i>45 Medical Sciences 349 37, 172 Applied Sciences 3,532 7i,S?6 Total 30,605 472,693 Of the 181,900 titles in the public catalogues about 108,200 are on cards printed by the Library, about 60,200 on Library of Congress cards, about 11,900 on A. L. A. co-operative cards, 321 on other printed cards, and about 1,200 are typewritten. To the combined index of federal and state publications there have been added 18,305 cards, making a total of 131,113. As already stated, the year's work of the cataloguing staff is next to the largest, and as the receipt of foreign books, other than English, has been very scanty, considerable at- 26 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY tention has been given to the arrears. The total of all kinds has been reduced from 829 to 714 shelves, and among these are 37 shelves of pamphlets, which will require only summary treatment and 144 shelves of Orientalia, which are now being treated separately, and which should be taken care of before the end of 1918. Meetings. The Library was represented officially by the Librarian and Cataloguer, and unofficially by five other members of the staff, at the annual meeting of the American Library Association at Asbury Park, June 26th to July ist; and officially by the Assistant Librarian, and unofficially by two other members of the staff, at the annual meeting of the Illinois Library Association at Ottawa, October nth to i3th. At this meeting Mr. Barr was elected president of the Association for 1917. The Librarian has attended, partly in behalf of the Library, the meeting of the American Library Institute at Atlantic City, March 9th and zoth; several meetings of a special committee of the American Library Association at Washington and New York, November gth to i4th, a com- mittee appointed to facilitate, if possible, the importation of books and periodicals from Germany; and the meetings of the Council of the American Library Association at Chicago, December 28th and 29th, Staff. No changes in the staff above the grade of junior assistant have occurred, but in that grade and below the changes have been more numerous than usual and the service has lost several efficient members. The following have resigned: Misses H. E. Brooke and Elsebeth Martens and Messrs. A. F. Gronberg and M. A. Brown, junior assistants; Miss Ruth Borch and Mr. Meyer Richman, attendants; Aloysius Weimer, George Nelson, and Louis Warman, pages. One page was dismissed. The following appointments have been made: Mr. Car- lyle Peek as junior assistant; Misses Mayme L. Cole and Margaret Terwilliger and Mr. John Pratt, formerly a page, as attendants; several pages on trial service. At their request Miss Hibbard and Mrs. Whidden, junior assistants, are now REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 27 serving half time only, and the appointment of an additional junior assistant has been recommended. The following have given or are giving temporary service: Mr. J. Christian Bay as Medical Reference Librarian; Miss Grace Kelley as Assistant Classifier; Miss H. E. Penfield as Assistant Classifier and as senior assistant; Miss A. M. Cole as senior assistant; Mrs. M. C. Hooker, Misses Beatrice Mul- ford, Cornelia Wyse, Clara L. Ross, C. S. Trepp, and Mr. D. J. Porto as junior assistants; Miss Ruth Westlund, Messrs. W. F. Stone and Gordon Lind as attendants. Most of the changes noted have occurred in the last quarter and have not prevented the staff from accomplish- ing more than the usual amount of work, for which it is hoped that the Board will give them due credit.

NICHOLAS MEYER REPORT OF THE PRESIDENT To THE GOVERNOR OF ILLINOIS: In accordance with the provisions of an act entitled "An Act to encourage and promote the establishment of free public libraries in cities, villages and towns of this state," approved June 17, 1891, under which this corporation is organized, the Directors of The John Crerar Library submit their twenty-third annual report for the year 1917. The vacancy caused by the resignation of Peter Stenger Grosscup has not been filled, so that the Board is now composed of the following persons: Robert T. Lincoln, Frank S. Johnson, Marvin Hughitt, Thomas D. Jones, John J. Mitchell, Leonard A. Busby, Robert Forsyth, Chauncey Keep, Frederick H. Rawson, Albert A. Sprague II, Walter B. Smith, and Chauncey B. Borland, together with William Hale Thompson, Mayor of Chicago, and Eugene R. Pike, Comptroller of Chicago, ex-omcio members. The officers of the Library are as follows: President, Marvin Hughitt; First Vice-President, Thomas D. Jones; Second Vice- President, Robert Forsyth; Secretary, Walter B. Smith; Treasurer, William J. Louderback; Librarian, Clement W. Andrews. At its meeting on April i9th the Board instructed the Librarian to offer the services of the Library to the National and State governments and to make it as useful as possible to them and to the country in all matters within its field of work. Some details of the special activities undertaken in consequence of this action are given in the report of the Librarian. The effects of the war on the development and use of the Library have been still more noticeable. The attendance has decreased considerably and the use somewhat. Nevertheless the recorded attendance was 132,344 and the total use of books, pamphlets and periodicals more than 560,000. The collections have been increased by 16,095 volumes and about 12,150 pamphlets and now contain 384,603 volumes, 12,455 maps and plates, and some 146,300 pamphlets. The Library has on its records 4,000 titles of current periodicals and 13,270 other serials, but none of the 8 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY German, Russian and Scandinavian, and few of the French and Italian are received. The Library has received from the Chicago Academy of Sciences as a gift its large and valuable collection of 30,000 pieces. This and an unusual number of other considerable gifts make the number of such acquisitions by far the largest in the history of the Library and form a testimonial, most gratifying to the Board, of the apprecia- tion of the community which it serves. For all details in regard to the administration of the Library reference is made to the appended report of the Librarian. The report of the Treasurer, also appended, presents a statement of the income and expenditure for the year 1917, together with a statement of the assets and investments, as required by law.

J. LOUDERBACK, Treasurer. CHICAGO, January 17, 1918. To THE BOARD or DIRECTORS OF THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY: Dear Sirs: We have audited the books and accounts of THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY, for the year ending December 31, 1917; we have examined and compared the book values with the market quo- tations of all securities (other than farm mortgages) which we found to have an aggregate market value less than the book value; and have verified the cash on hand and in banks. We accordingly certify that, in our opinion, the attached state- ments truly set forth the cash receipts and disbursements, the op- erating income for the year, and the assets and liabilities at its close. Very truly yours, THE AUDIT COMPANY OF NEW YORK E. C. Goodman, Chicago, March 7, 1918 Western Manager REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN * To THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY: Gentlemen: The entrance of the United States into the world war has not only intensified the effects of the factors already noted which have disturbed the routine of the Library, but necessarily has produced many additional complications, needs, and duties. That the vote of the Board at its meeting in April, offering the services of the Library to the National and State governments, was no perfunctory action is well shown by the services its members have rendered individually in active service in the National Army, at Washington, in the Liberty Loan work, the Red Cross work, and in the campaign for the Soldiers' Book Fund. ( I hope that the services of the staff may be considered as equally patriotic in proportion to their abilities and opportu- nities. Very few of them are of the sex or age which would enable them to serve in the National Army and none have been drawn as yet; but one of the attendants is serving as a volunteer in the medical service; one of the assistant reference librarians is in charge of the camp library at the Great Lakes Training Station; several of the women helped in the arrangement of the draft registration records and in the registration of women; many have volunteered for service at the Food Conservation Exhibit; the President and the Librarian have served on the War Finance Com- mittee of the American Library Association; and the staff has responded, almost without exception, to the appeals for subscrip- tion to the Liberty bonds, the Red Cross work and the Soldiers' , Book Fund. j~ As an institution the Library has done more than a little. It has purchased regularly and promptly the technical books needed to meet the demands of the student officers and of others interested in the necessities of the country. Among these it has laid great stress on military medicine and surgery and has prepared and published a select list of these books, which it has distributed to the thirty-five camp libraries; and is prepared to duplicate such of them as are needed for loans to these libraries. It has furnished to 13 14 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY U. S. officials and others bibliographies on subjects connected with the war and has made many loans of books of this character. It has undertaken to furnish a librarian for the camp library at the Great Lakes Training Station and has appropriated $1,000 for the purpose. It has enabled several members of the staff to subscribe to Liberty bonds on the installment plan. Rooms. Because of the stationary number of the staff and the decrease in readers, the only additional space required was for the storage of books. This was secured by renting 730 sq. ft. on the seventh floor, adjacent to the space already rented. As the light in this room was unusually good, part of it was used for staff work and a part of the space previously used by the staff on the fifth floor was equipped with stack. In all some 700 shelves of the regulation size have been provided. The Borden cantilever stack was installed as a test of this new and promising method of con- struction. Its rigidity and economy of space are evident but the convenience of handling the shelves is still to be determined, and the economy of cost could not be ascertained under the present conditions of the steel trade. As soon as the new space was available it was used for the recep- tion and handling of the gift of the Chicago Academy of Sciences, which could hardly have been undertaken otherwise. As soon as this work is completed the shelves will be used to provide for the accessions of the year, but they will not much more than suffice for these and what shall be done for the latter part of 1919 and there- after will have to be decided before long. In this connection it may be well to point'out, for the considera- tion of the Board, that the present quarters of the Library are far from ideal either in extent or arrangement. Under present condi- tions the main Reading Room is quite satisfactory, but in the Senn Room the number of seats is insufficient and the space allotted to each reader still more so, and in the Periodical Room these condi- tions are even worse. Moreover, the pressure on the Reading Room and on the Periodical Room will surely increase as soon as the war ends. The provision for most members of the staff is inadequate to secure the most efficient work and an even greater disadvantage is their dispersion in a dozen places on three floors. This dispersion is necessary because of the alterations in the building itself and in REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 15 those surrounding it, which have made it impossible to secure sufficient adjacent space with good working light without very extensive and expensive alterations. The books, also, are now scattered over three floors and cannot be brought together for the same reasons. Still another place where the present arrangements are unsatis- factory is the Public Catalogue Room. The growth of this necessary tool could be provided for only by the addition of trays in three rows on top of the present cases, although these upper rows are too high for convenient use. Routine. Hitherto biographical works have been entered in all three sections of the public catalogues. Because of the increas- ing pressure on the space this practice has been revised and these works will now be entered under the name of the biographee in the author catalogue and in the appropriate places in the classed catalogue, with reference to all these places from the subject index. Special Collections. From the income of its special fund seven titles have been added to the Huntington W. Jackson Col- lection on Constitutional Law, which now contains 943 titles, of which 112 have been purchased from the fund. Much work has been done on the Senn Collection on the Med- ical Sciences. Many volumes of the earlier works on surgery have been transferred to it and yet the shelves of books remaining to be treated have been reduced from 129 to 100. The shelves of pamphlets are already classified and will require comparatively little attention. The income from the fund for the Cradle Collection on the Eye and Ear has been spent for periodicals and 37 volumes have been added to the 323 already having the bookplate. There are now 792 titles of books and some 3,600 pamphlets in the collection. The Chanute Collection on Aviation contains 642 books, some 600 pamphlets, and 2,000 clippings. The Cremation Association of America has continued its support of the Collection on Cremation, which now contains 155 titles of books arid 238 pamphlets. There have been added to the Collection of Trade Catalogues 551 in continuation of previous gifts and in response to 106 re- quests. The total number in the collection is now 4,611 pieces from 2,140 firms. 16 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY Progress has been made on the catalogue of the Orientalia, which may be ready for the printer by 1920. By the terms of the gift of the library of the Chicago Academy of Sciences another special collection has been formed. It was agreed that this collection should consist, first, of all material within the scope of the Library not already on its shelves, and second, of all duplicate material obtained by purchase. The material of the second class is not to be actually replaced, but the Library's copies are to receive the Academy's gift plate and the Academy's copies are to be available for sale or exchange. In accordance with the settled policy of the Board the volumes of the collection are to be distributed on the shelves and their entries in the catalogue as determined by the plans of the Library. The collection was received as soon as the new space was available, and work on it has been hi progress ever since. At the present time 1,171 bound volumes, 1,020 unbound volumes, 3,047 pamphlets, 1,154 numbers of periodicals, 69 college cata- logues, and 13 maps have been added to the Library and 46 bound volumes, 21 unbound volumes and 655 pamphlets remain to be treated. All of the latter are supposed not to be duplicates. Of duplicates there were 4,538 bound volumes, 5,019 unbound vol- umes, 903 pamphlets, 486 catalogues, 10,948 numbers and 58 maps. Of material outside the scope of the collection there were 156 bound volumes, 53 unbound volumes and 3 pamphlets. The collection consisted of 13,861 volumes, 5,007 pamphlets, 12,102 numbers and 71 maps, or over 30,000 pieces. Of these 6,461 are of the first class but the number of the second class has not been determined as yet, so that the exact size of the col- lection on the Library's records cannot be stated now. The additions of 1917 have not been included as they have purposely been left at the Academy in order to ascertain the more readily their extent and value. By the terms of the agreement the Library will pay to the Academy each year one half the value to the Library of these additions, these payments to be used by the Academy as a publishing fund. Whatever the amount it is evident that both institutions will benefit by the arrangement. While the disposal of the duplicates has only been begun it is quite possible that if the Board chooses to capitalize the amount received for them the fund will provide a good proportion of the annual payment. REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 17 From the figures above given it will appear that the collection is almost entirely within the scope of the Library and must have strengthened it appreciably, but this general inference would fail to indicate the notable additions on American geology, rounding out very satisfactorily the Department of Natural Sciences, and the equally notable additions to the collection of society transac- tions. Attendance. The total number of visitors recorded during the year was 132,344 and the daily average was 423, a decrease of 18 per cent from the figures of 1916, which were 158,834 and 509 respectively, and a decrease of 23 per cent from the maximum in 1915. The average evening attendance, 99, was 8 less than in 1916. The average attendance on the five general holidays, 183, exactly the same as in 1916, was 60 less than in 1915, but more than for any other year. The smallest attendance for the year was 109, on December 25th, and the largest was 845, on February zyth. The figures for 1916 were 118 and 903 respectively. The average attendance in the Senn Room for the second week of December was 20 per cent less than in 1916, although the evening attendance was slightly greater. Use. The decrease in admissions to the stack is due wholly to the cessation of some special investigations in the medical sciences and is only a return to a more normal condition. The number is greater than for any year except 1916 and almost cer- tainly indicates a larger number of workers than ever. Of the 4,258 admissions 3,382 were by registration and 876 on presenta- tion of 24 passes. Four additional passes have been granted and one cancelled, making 103 nominally in force. The decrease hi calls for books from the stacks from 184,800 in 1916 to 177,978 in 1917 is in nothing like the same proportion as the decrease in attendance. Attention has been called before to this phenomenon, and an examination of the comparative figures in the first table of library statistics shows that it has been a fairly steady change from the beginning. In 1897, 80 readers a day made 30 calls, or 0.38 per reader; in 1907, 351 readers made 334 calls, or 0.95 per reader; in 1917, 423 readers made 569 calls, or 1.34 per reader. Nevertheless it is evident that if the war continues long enough the attendance will reach the minimum of one reader a day before he is able to call for all the books. It should be remem- 1 8 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY bered that these figures are the number of successful calls and take no account of the number of volumes which may be given out on any one call, of those read in the stacks, of those taken from the shelves in the reading rooms, nor of the use of the current period- icals. Employing the same factor as last year, the total use may be estimated at over 560,000 books, pamphlets, and periodicals. A detailed classification of the call slips for books and of admis- sions to the stack is given in the second table of library statistics. A comparison of the totals and percentages for each department with the corresponding figures for 1916 follows: Calls f( 1916 Percent- Total age Unclassified . . . . i.Rno >r Books igi I Total 1,868 26,138 31,676 19,680 12,311 31,527 54,778 Admissions to the Stack i 1916 1917 ercent- Percent- Percent- age Total age Total age General Works. . .

This balances the large decreases of the previous year in the Social Sciences and General Works, so that the decrease from the maximum of 1915 is fairly proportionate for all the depart- ments except Natural Sciences and Physical Sciences. The fact that the latter shows a positive increase is easily explained by the greater attention given to chemistry, but it is not so easy to see why the former should have held its own. A comparison of the figures for the individual subjects shows similar anomalies. Thus it is certain that present conditions are responsible for the increases in calls for agriculture and administration, as the latter subject includes the science and art of war, but it is almost as certain that they have had nothing to do with the three hundred per cent increase in the calls for paleontology. None of the decreases are noteworthy except that of one-third in photography. Again the list of the six leading subjects has been altered. For 1917 they were medicine, engineering, chemical technology, chemistry, trade and transportation, physics. Chemistry has entered the list for the first time, replacing political economy. The recorded calls for assistance by telephone were 1,070 and the requests for information by letter were 131. The figures for 1916 were 1,020 and 237 respectively. 19 The work with the cameragraph continues to increase. The orders for 1917 were 251, requiring 3,431 sheets, for which charges amounting to $377.30 were made. For 1916 the figures were 225 orders, 2,885 sheets, $339.75 charges. The service by loans for use outside the Library has broadened and increased slightly. There were granted 534 requests for 663 volumes from 104 libraries and 1,106 requests from 315 individuals. For 1916 the figures were 579 loans of 743 volumes to 87 libraries and 878 loans to 292 individuals. Six requests from libraries were refused and in seventeen cases the books loaned were asked for while out. Several loans had to be postponed because of the new regulation prohibiting mail or express service between December fifteenth and January fifteenth. The loans obtained by the Library for its readers were 33 of 55 volumes from four libraries. One request was refused. The time required to fill calls has been determined in the same way as for the previous year. The average time was 4.53 minutes, as against 3.84 in 1916. The record of the causes of failures to supply books called for which should have been supplied, is as follows: at bindery, 480; otherwise unavailable temporarily, mostly burned or stolen and not yet replaced, 29; in use by another reader, 705; withdrawn from general circulation, 14; not found on shelves, 479; errors of library assistants or records, 257; total, 1,964. The total is i.io per cent of all the call slips presented. , Excluding the first four causes as unavoidable, the avoidable failures were 0.43 per cent. For 1916 they were 0.16. In explanation of the unfavorable comparison of the time required to fill calls and of the avoidable failures to supply books in 1917 with those of 1916 it should be stated, first, that the latter were the best of recent years and that a comparison with the average of the three preceding years would be much less unfavorable and, secondly, that the shelves are now much more crowded and many more books not in their proper places. Moreover the conditions of employment have changed so that it is almost impossible to obtain boys and young men for steady service. No fewer than twelve changes were made in the positions having to do with this work, most of them in the last six months. The influence of this factor is clearly shown by the fact that the time required to fill 20 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY calls in the first half of 1917 was 4.19 minutes and in the second half 4.92. It is evident that an impairment of the service was in- evitable and unfortunately a further impairment seems most probable. Publications. In July the Library issued its Twenty-second Annual Report, a pamphlet of 61 pages. An edition of 6,500 copies was printed and nearly all distributed. In March the Library issued a Supplement to the List of Books on the History of Science, This is a work of 139 pages and contains some 800 titles of acquisitions made since the appearance of the original list in 1911 and of works found in the recently catalogued portion of the Gerritsen purchase. These two lists and the List of Books on the History of Industry, issued in 1915, bring together a large number of titles which are necessarily scattered in the classed catalogue. Although they contain only the titles to be found in a single library they are almost the only, and are believed to be the most complete, bibliography in print on these subjects, and their value as such has received favorable mention from several writers. In November the Library issued a Selected List of Books on Military Medicine and Surgery. This is a pamphlet of 58 pages, in a smaller format than that of the previous lists, and contains some 400 titles. It was issued primarily for use in the camps and the Library will undertake to loan the books as far as possible for use at the military hospitals. A list of books, pamphlets, and magazine articles on Cremation, which will catalogue the special collection of the Cremation Association of America, and a reissue, enlarged, of the table of contents of the collection of French documents of the i5th to the i8th centuries will be the next publications. Besides these and the supplements to and new editions of the lists already published, the Board has authorized the publication of a list of the biographies of scientists. Material for these lists is being gathered. The numbers of the various publications remaining in stock are given in the following table, which shows their distribution during the year.

The distribution of one copy of each catalogue card to the Armour Institute of Technology, Chicago Public Library, Field Museum of Natural History, Library of Congress, Northwestern University, University of Chicago, and the Uni- versity of Illinois, has been continued; also the sending of one copy of each card printed by the Library to Columbia University, Harvard University, New York State Library, Princeton Uni- versity, Royal Library at The Hague, St. Louis Public Library, University of California, University of Iowa, University of Mich- igan, and Yale University. Besides other special orders of limited scope completely filled seven new standing special orders have been received; one was from the U. S. War Department, which has been filled without charge. The distribution amounted to 188,519 c ards, of which 73,298 were sent to the depository libraries, 2,588 sent as gifts, and 104,633 sold or sent in exchange. The present state of the Union Catalogue is shown in the following table: Receipts in 1517 Total Library of Congress 41,252 719,024 Royal Library, Berlin 21,556 94,790 Royal Library, The Hague 4,704 29,454 Harvard University 4,i6o 34,441 University of Illinois 5,683 34,47 University of Chicago 6,789 9,9" University of California 746 Total 84,144 922,413 Selection and Ordering. The selection of titles of new books is very nearly up to date except for German publications. The number of orders given was considerably larger than in 1916, but is still far from meeting the requirements of the Library. 22 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY During the year 9,692 orders were given. Of these 860 failed or were cancelled, leaving 8,832 valid orders, covering 12,785 volumes at an estimated cost of $20,274; 7,450 orders were filled, covering with the standing orders for continuations 9,948 volumes at a cost of $19,773. There are left outstanding, in addition to the orders for continuations, 4,360 orders for 6,101 volumes, at an estimated cost of $7,689; of these 1,718 were given before January i, 1917. The distribution of the orders of the year, of the total to the end of 1917, and the net estimated cost, to the nearest dollar, are given in the second table of library statistics. Attention has been called in previous reports to the failure of the Library to obtain material which could be had without other expense than that of correspondence because of its inability to make the necessary requests promptly upon the appearance of the publications. An earnest effort has been made to avoid this failure and the results were so satisfactory that it is proposed to continue on this line. The greater necessity for the prompt ordering of the books of the day, consequent upon present conditions, makes it impossible for the assistant in charge of orders to do 'this and a portion of the margin provided in the appropriation for salaries should be used for occasional services in this work. In 1916 several large orders were given for German publications which it was hoped might be secured under the provision for per- mits secured by the committee of the American Library Association, but the delays of this system were so great that few orders were filled before the entrance of the United States into the war put an end to all such transactions. Recently the State Department has indicated that it shares the view of the British Government that the advantage to be obtained by the consultation of the scientific and technical investigations of Germany outweigh the economic gain to the enemy countries, and arrangements are being con- sidered for the limited importation of such works under the con- trol of that department. Unless otherwise instructed this Library's requests will be very few; for instance for only about ten out of the hundreds of periodicals formerly received. Accessions. The total accessions of volumes for 1917 have been 16,558, of which 6,610 have been received as gifts and 9,948 obtained by purchase. Volumes made by binding serials are included in these figures. There have been withdrawn 463 volumes, REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 23 leaving the net accessions for the year 16,095, which with the 368,508 reported for 1916 make a total now on the books of 384,603. There remain to be entered only the Laufer purchase, about 14,000 volumes, and about 1,000 volumes of the Gerritsen purchase. These have their own catalogues, and particular books can be obtained when asked for, so that the total number of volumes available is very nearly 400,000. % Through some unexplained error the number of maps and plates was stated incorrectly in the report for 1916. The actual number was 12,072. The number added during 1917 was 386 and the withdrawals were three, making the total number now on the record 12,455. There have been received 30,165 pamphlets as gifts and from the South American purchase 177 were added; author slips for 6,259 titles were filed in the official catalogue; the classified collec- tion was increased by 12,535 pamphlets; and the collection of trade catalogues by 551. The number added to the classified collection includes the number of titles filed, but both these numbers have no necessary connection with the number reported as received. Many of the pamphlets received are duplicates, and many more are continuations, or for various reasons are put elsewhere than in the pamphlet collection. On the other hand, pamphlets already in the Library have been classified and entered in the official catalogue. Of the 12,535 net accessions to the classified collection, 211 were from the Gerritsen purchase; 102 from the Senn Collec- tion and the Newberry Medical Collection; and 71 from other accumulations, leaving 12,151 as the new accessions of the year. Their classification is shown in the second table of library statistics. To the classified collection of some 114,400 should be added those still unclassified, about 27,300, and the trade cata- logues, about 4,600 making a total of approximately 146,300. In addition to these there are now in process of treatment nearly 1,000 South American and 655 Academy. The following table shows the distribution of the net accessions for 1917 and the totals entered, by departments, together with the percentages of the classified volumes : 24 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY 1917 DEPARTMENT Unclassified Volumes 3 1 Per cent Pamphlets Volumes 17,868 Per cent Pamphlets 27 3?6 General Works. . .

The percentage of volumes hi each department has, therefore, changed but very little. The assistants in charge of periodicals report that 112 titles have been withdrawn from the general list and 233 added, and that 24 have been withdrawn from the medical list and 21 added, making a total now on the two lists of 4,031 copies of 4,000 titles. Unfortunately the Library is not in receipt of anything like this number. Nineteen out of 278 English, 157 out of 290 French, 17 out of 73 Italian, and all the German, Russian and Scandinavian, have not come. A few more French periodicals have resumed pub- lication. For these reasons, the expenditure has been much less than the appropriation, and, as ordered by the Board, the unex- pended balance will be added to the Book Purchase Reserve in order to enable the Library, after the war, to fill the gaps as completely as possible. The assistant in charge of the Continuation Record reports 808 titles added to the list and 426 withdrawn, leaving 13,270 at the end of the year. About 5,735 are obtained by subscription at a cost in 1917 of $2,411.63. These furnished 889 volumes entered on the record of accessions. The other continuations were received as gifts or hi exchange, and furnished 1,562 volumes. For the gifts 2,500 first and 823 second requests were sent and 53 reported to the Librarian for personal letters. For the purchases 170 first and 10 second notifications were sent and 5 reported to the Librarian. Here again the effects of the war are very noticeable. The expendi- ture, notwithstanding the increase in the number supposed to be REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 25 obtained by purchase, was less than in 1913 by $3,600 and the number of volumes bound fewer by 642. Of individual purchases the most important were two addi- tions to the incunabula and early printed books: Arcana medicinae, Geneva, 1498-1500, and Hieronymus Braunschweig's The Vertuose Boke of Distyllacyon of the Waters of all maner of Herbes, London, 1527. Because of inability to purchase of German second-hand dealers, the opportunities of obtaining sets of periodicals have been comparatively few, but advantage has been taken of several that offered and the following sets have been completed or greatly extended: Anales de la Sociedad Cientifica Argentina, Young's Annals of agriculture, British printer, Canadian almanac, a second set of the Index medicus, Journal telegraphique, Journal of the Institute of Actuaries, Miscellanea curiosa, sive Ephemeridum medico-physicarum Germanicarum . . . anni, of the Halle Acad- emy, 1670-1706, Transactions of the Scottish Arboricultural Society. There were received as gifts 24,284 volumes and 30,165 pamph- lets from 4,189 donors. The volumes entered hi the accession record were 6,610. The figures for 1916 were 8,844 volumes, 16,224 pamphlets, 4,291 donors, and 5,437 entries. The gift of the Chicago Academy of Sciences is chiefly but not wholly responsible for this very large increase. Besides this, how- ever, there has been an unusual number of considerable gifts. Dr. Frank S. Johnson presented 1,778 volumes and 444 pamphlets on medicine; the estate of E. W. Blatchford 377 volumes and 1,511 pamphlets, mostly on education; Dr. H. E. Horton 270 volumes and 759 pamphlets on agriculture; Drs. G. F. Suker, H. S. Gradle, C. N. Johnson and Hugh Patrick noteworthy collections, mostly of medical and dental periodicals; the Mining World 160 volumes of mining periodicals; Northwestern University and Lewis Institute their usual contributions of college catalogues; and the American Medical Association, reverting to its previous custom, presented 612 volumes and 457 pamphlets. The valuable and interesting gifts of single works have been many, but only two can be mentioned here: Thomas Jefferson, architect, from Mrs. T. J. Coolidge, Jr., of Boston; and King's Treatise on the science and practice of the manufacture . . . of coal gas from the People's Gas Light and Coke Co. 26 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY Duplicates. The sales of the year amounted to 427 bound volumes, 240 unbound volumes, 54 pamphlets, 150 numbers and 3 maps for $155.12, and 2,937 pounds for $44.06. The difference between this total of $199.18 and that of $437.31 reported by the Treasurer is due to the inclusion in the latter of refunds for over- . charges and returns. On priced exchange 22 bound volumes, i unbound volume, and 10 pamphlets valued at $13.56, have been sent; 41 bound volumes, 2 unbound volumes, 12 pamphlets and 3 numbers, valued at $38.55, have been received. On piece for piece exchange n bound volumes, 10 unbound volumes, 17 pamphlets and 9 numbers have been sent; 168 bound volumes, 368 unbound volumes, 206 pamphlets and 235 numbers have been received. Three volumes were presented to the camp libraries. The dupli- cates from the Academy gift will be reported upon next year. Several cases have been sent off, but this was done to secure room and the transactions have not been completed. Inventory. The eighth inventory has been continued and shelves 500 to 599 read, these forming the Departments of Physical and Natural Sciences. Fifty-nine serious misplacements were corrected. Of 64,186 volumes 71 were missing, and twelve other volumes were not returned to the Delivery Desk. On the other hand, 21 volumes previously reported lost have been found, so that the net loss from the regular shelves was 62. The losses from the reading rooms have been rather less than in recent years. Eleven are missing from the main Reading Room and one pre- viously reported lost has been recovered; seven are missing from the Senn Room. The net loss for the year is 79 and the total for 21 years is 574, or i in 669. The detected mutilations of books and periodicals have shown a curious reversal of the experience of 1916. The former have decreased from 46 to 21 and are just equal to those of 1915; the latter have increased from 42 to 88 and are somewhat more num- erous than in 1915. The losses of periodicals have increased from 51 to 88 and are also more numerous than in 1915. Un- fortunately it has not been possible to replace quite a large pro- portion of these losses. Binding. On January i, 1917, there were at the binderies 481 volumes, and 8,382 were sent during the year; 15 were re- turned as incomplete, and 8,146 bound; leaving 702 at the binderies REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 27 December 31, 1917. About one- third were bound by The Newberry Library. The cost of binding was $8,071, an average of $0.99 per volume. This is an increase over 1916, but not so great as was anticipated. The cost of shelf-marking the accessions of the year, together with a considerable amount of repairing, inserting book- plates, and similar work, was $1,705. Catalogues. The Cataloguer reports that during the year 5,477 new titles have been prepared for print; 131 new titles type- written; 62 titles prepared for print to replace old typewritten titles, and 109 to replace Library of Congress titles; 5,116 titles received from the Library of Congress have been classified for the catalogues; 92 titles have been prepared for the co-operative analysis of serials. The total number of titles treated by the Cataloguer and Classifier and their assistants has been 12,292, which is about five per cent less than in 1916. The titles reprinted in correction of errors were 95 and for other alterations 855. Cards for 5,394 new titles and 1,111 reprinted titles were received from the printer; electrotypes for 596 new titles and 434 reprinted titles from the electrotypers. The total number of separate titles pre- pared for print to date is 116,869; f sets f cards received, 114,903; of electrotypes, 62,833. The number of orders sent to the Library of Congress on tripli- cate order sheets was 10,084 and reports were received on all. There were cards for 3,312 titles on hand January i, 1917; 6,714 were received during the year, and 3 were taken from the file of those previously withdrawn; cards for 5,335 were used, and for 424 withdrawn from the file, leaving those for 4,270 on hand December 3ist. Of those withdrawn 25 titles were returned to the Library of Congress and 399 were cancelled. Of the 6,714 titles received, 1,188 were analytical titles from 338 serial publications. Of the 4,270 titles on hand, 1,146 are for book orders before 1917, 1,430 for those of 1917, 250 for regular standing orders, and 1,444 f r three special analytical orders. The work of the Library in the co-operative analysis of serials has been continued. It has supplied 92 titles and received cards for 1,017, of which 36 have been filed in the public catalogue and 128 have been sold. There have been added 30,178 cards to the classed catalogue, which now contains some 192,600 titles on 502,871 cards, an aver- 28 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY age of 2.61 cards per title; 19,871 cards have been filed in the author catalogue, which now contains the same 192,600 titles on 339,861 cards, an average of 1.76 cards per title; 1,242 guides and 7,038 cards have been added to the subject index, which now contains 27,527 guides and 77,512 cards covering 171,515 titles, an average of 0.45 card per title. The distribution of the cards in the classed catalogue, by departments, is shown in the following table: CARDS DEPARTMENT 1917 TOTAL General Works 10,013 167,478 Social Sciences 7,179 130,561 Physical Sciences 1,191 3 2 >839 Natural Sciences 2,736 54i86 Medical Sciences 3,980 41,152 Applied Sciences 5,079 76,655 Total 30,178 502,871 Of the 192,600 titles in the public catalogues about 113,800 are on cards printed by the Library, about 65,200 on Library of Congress cards, about 12,000 on A. L. A. co-operative cards, 321 on other printed cards, and about 1,300 are typewritten. To the combined index of federal and state publications there have been added 12,315 cards, making a total of 143,428. The receipt of the library of the Academy has caused an increase in the regular arrears, but this has been much more than balanced by the work on the other collections. The total has been reduced from 814 shelves (wrongly stated as 714 in the report for 1916) to 746, and of these 144 are Orientalia, now partly catalogued, and 53 are pamphlets which will require only summary treatment. Meetings. The Library was represented officially by the Libra- rian and unofficially by three other members of the staff at the an- nual meetings of the American Library Association, the Special Li- braries Association and the National Association of State Libraries at Louisville, June 2ist to 27th; officially by the Medical Reference Librarian at the annual meeting of the Medical Library Association in New York City, June 4th to 6th; officially by the Assistant Li- brarian at the annual meeting of the Illinois Library Association, at Decatur, October i7th to igth; and officially by the Librarian at meetings of the War Finance Committee of the American Library Association at Washington, August i4th and i5th, and at Chilli- cothe, Ohio, November i7th. REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 29 The Librarian attended, in behalf of the Library, the meeting of the American Library Institute at Atlantic City, March 2nd and 3rd and the Medical Reference Librarian and one of his assistants attended sessions of the Clinical Congress of Surgeons of North America, at Chicago, October 22nd to 27th. At the last meeting the Library distributed some 120 copies of its Selected List of Books on Military Medicine and Surgery. Staff. The changes in the staff have been unusually numerous and important, and the difficulty in filling the lower positions satisfactorily has been much greater than ever before. April ist Mr. Charles J. Barr, Assistant Librarian, resigned to take the position of Assistant Librarian at Yale University. Mr. Barr entered the service of the Library in August, 1902 as Reference Librarian and became Assistant Librarian in December, 1903. He was quiet and unassuming in manner but very efficient in all his work and especially sympathetic in his treatment of the staff. His leaving is a great loss to the Library and to the staff. Mr. D. Ashley Hooker, Reference Librarian, resigned in August, to go to the Detroit Public Library. His service to the Library began as Assistant Reference Librarian in June, 1912 and his promotion to be Reference Librarian in April, 1917 was a proof of the high estimation in which his services were held. Mr. Bruno Wilke, Assistant Treasurer, died on April i5th. He began service as assistant to the Treasurer in January, 1905. The appreciation of the Treasurer and of the Board of his long and faithful service was expressed at their meeting on April i9th. Of lower grades the following resignations have been received: Mrs. Alberta Whidden and Mr. Carlyle Peek, junior assistants; Messrs. Gordon Lind, Edward Sherry, W. H. Nutter, J. W. Heaton, J. A. Morrison and Edward Boin, attendants. Mr. Noah Fox has been given an indefinite leave of absence on account of his volun- teering for war service. The following appointments have been made: Mr. Edwaid D. Tweedell as Assistant Librarian; Mr. D. Ashley Hooker and after- wards Mr. Robert J. Usher as Reference Librarian; Mr. F. E. Brasch as Assistant Reference Librarian; Mr. T. R. Orr as Treasurer's Assistant; Misses C. S. Trepp, Clara L. Ross and Ella M. Sal- monsen and Messrs. D. J. Porto and Benjamin Jaffe as junior assistants; Messrs. Edward Boin, John Damgaard, Edward Sherry, 30 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY W. M. Nutter, J. W. Heaton, J. A. Morrison and Gunnar Mikkelsen as attendants. Mr. Tweedell had already served the Library as Reference Librarian since August, 1909; and Mr. Usher for 5 years at intervals since November, 1909 as Assistant Reference Librarian and Tem- porary Reference Librarian. The following have given temporary service: Misses Ella M. Salmonsen and Elizabeth Wilson as senior assistants; Misses Mayme Cole, Maude Kersten, Mila Straub, and Anne Holcomb as junior assistants; Misses Freda M. Grapes and Mary Duncan and Mr. W. F. Stone as attendants. Ten pages have left the service of the Library during the year and 15 have been engaged. The following are now on the staff: Bessie Hiller, Joseph Nelson, James Spiers, Roy Anderson, August Everaert. Because of the many changes in the staff a diminution in the amount of work accomplished was inevitable, but it is hoped that the Board will consider it slight in comparison with what might have been expected and that they will recognize the faithful work of both the old and the new members.

The vacancy caused by the resignation of Peter Stenger Grosscup has not been filled, so that the Board is now composed of the following persons: Robert T. Lincoln, Frank S. Johnson, Marvin Hughitt, Thomas D. Jones, John J. Mitchell, Leonard A. Busby, Robert Forsyth, Chauncey Keep, Frederick H. Rawson, Albert A. Sprague II, Walter B. Smith, and Chauncey B. Borland, together with William Hale Thompson, Mayor of Chicago, and Eugene R. Pike, Comptroller of Chicago, ex-officio members. The officers of the Library are as follows: President, Marvin Hughitt; First Vice-President, Thomas D. Jones; Second Vice- President, Robert Forsyth; Secretary, Walter B. Smith; Treasurer, William J. Louderback; Librarian, Clement W. Andrews. The special war activities of the Library have been continued and expanded. Some of the details are given in the report of the Librarian. The effects of the war upon the development and use have probably reached their culmination. The recorded attendance was 111,075 and the total use of books, pamphlets, and periodicals nearly 462,000. While these figures are much smaller than for 1917 the last two months of the year plainly show signs of an early recovery. The collections have been increased by 14,165 volumes and about 8,500 pamphlets and now contain approximately 414,000 volumes, 13,000 maps and plates, and 155,000 pamphlets. The Library has on its records 4,156 titles of current periodicals and 13,677 other serials, but only five of the German, none of the 7 8 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY Russian and Scandinavian, and about half of the French and Italian periodicals are received. For all details in regard to the administration of the Library reference is made to the appended report of the Librarian. The report of the Treasurer, also appended, presents a state- ment of the income and expenditure for the year 1918, together with a statement of the assets and investments, as required by law. Respectfully submitted, MARVIN HUGHITT, President. CHICAGO, January 16, 1919.

J. LOUDERBACK, CHICAGO, January 16, 1919. Treasurer. To THE BOARD or DIRECTORS OF THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY: Dear Sirs: We have audited the books and accounts of THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY, for the year ending December 31, 1918; we have examined and compared the book values with the market quo- tations of all securities (other than farm mortgages) , which we found to have an aggregate market value less than the book value; and have verified the cash on hand and in banks. We accordingly certify that, in our opinion, the attached state- ments truly set forth the cash receipts and disbursements, the op- erating income for the year, and the assets and liabilities at the end of the year. Very truly yours, THE AUDIT COMPANY or NEW YORK, Chicago, January 21, 1919 E. C. GOODMAN, Western Manager REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN To THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY: Gentlemen: The special war activities of the Library were con- tinued and expanded during 1918. The giving of information to the public through the display of posters and the distribution of literature is a function which has been performed to a greater or less extent by all public libraries. The peculiar character of The John Crerar Library, however, has enabled it to render some other services which it may be appropriate to mention here. Of the men of the staff three volunteered. One served abroad in the army, one served in the navy, and one was rejected for physical disability. One was called in the first draft but was rejected for physical disability. One, too young for the first draft, was called in the second, was accepted, and was awaiting orders when the armistice was signed. Nearly all the others were too old or too young for active service or were exempt for various reasons, so that the percentage of service was much higher than the figures would in- dicate. Of the other men two served as camp librarians and many gave time to civilian activities. Of the women one was given leave of absence for six months for service in France with the Y. M. C. A., one for a year in a western university in the S. A. T. C. work, and most of the others gave time to various civilian services. } The Library enabled members of the staff to subscribe to $7,750 of the Liberty Loans and sold $464.47 of War Savings Stamps and Thrift Stamps. These subscriptions and purchases were by no means all those made by the staff. The loans of books were a noticeable feature of the war work oi the year. These included loans to the Military Intelligence Board, two proving grounds of the Ordnance Bureau, the Chemical War- fare Service, the Bureau of Mines, the Bureau of Standards, the Hygienic Laboratory, a special commission, a British commissioner, several base hospitals, four cantonment libraries, and several private firms engaged in war manufacture. 13 i 4 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY A similar service was rendered by furnishing cameragraph copies of books and articles not found elsewhere. These were furnished to the Federal Trade Commission, the Military Intelligence Board, the Department of Justice, and to private firms. For this service the Library received from the War Trade Board two licences (out of apparently not more than a dozen issued) to reproduce material copyrighted by enemy aliens. The Library also served several governmental offices and ,, agencies by furnishing bibliographical information through its * printed cards and by replying to inquiries. It has also bought promptly and made available the best books on the technique of the various services, which have been consulted frequently at the Library by officers, student officers, and others. Rooms. No additional space in the Marshall Field & Co. Building could be secured and the conditions mentioned in some detail in the last report are now even worse because of the steady growth of the collections and the certain increase in the use in the near future. Therefore the reasons for hoping that the Board may be able to provide more adequate accommodation are even stronger than they were a year ago. Routine. Because of the theft of German monographs on chemical subjects, absolutely irreplaceable under existing con- ditions, the Committee on Administration gave instructions that the privilege of consulting the shelves on these subjects should be limited to readers personally known to the Librarian. A number of the most important were withdrawn from general circulation through the Delivery Desk. At the request of the War Depart- ment the books on explosives were also withdrawn from general circulation. The only other matter of routine worth mention was the develop- ment of a classification of the material on the war. A dictaphone has been installed for the use of the Librarian. Its use enables the amount of correspondence to be determined automatically. In the month of December 296 letters were written. Special Collections. From the income of its special fund eight titles have been added to the Huntington W. Jackson Col- lection on Constitutional Law, which now contains 990 titles, of which 1 20 have been purchased from the fund. REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 15 Much work has been done on the Senn Collection on the Med- ical Sciences, and the shelves of books remaining to be treated have been reduced from 100 to 88. All but 15 shelves of pamphlets have been reclassified. The income from the fund for the Cradle Collection on the Eye and Ear has been spent for periodicals and 39 volumes have been added to the 360 already having the bookplate. There are now 858 titles of books and some 3, 600 pamphlets in the collection. The Chanute Collection on Aviation contains 710 books, some 635 pamphlets, and 2,200 clippings. The Cremation Association of America has continued its support of the Collection on Cremation, which now contains 158 titles of books and 239 pamphlets. There have been added to the Collection of Trade Catalogues 429 in continuation of previous gifts and in response to 53 re- quests. The total number in the collection is now 5040 pieces from 2,210 firms. Much work has been done on the Collection of the Chicago Academy of Sciences. So far 2,440 volumes have been entered in the record of accessions and 2,985 already purchased by the Library have had their bookplates replaced in accordance with the terms of the gift. At least 275 volumes remain to be treated so that the total number of volumes in the collection at present may be stated as approximately 5,700. For several reasons it is not possible now to give the number of pamphlets or the additions received during the year. A report on the disposal of the duplicates will be found later. Attendance. The total number of visitors recorded during the year was 111,075 and the daily average was 357, a decrease of 16 per cent from the figures of 1917, which were 132,344 and 423 respectively, and a decrease of 34 per cent from the maximum in 1915. The average evening attendance, 87, was 12 less than in 1917. The average attendance on the five general holidays, 122, was 61 less than in 1917. The smallest attendance for the year was 83, on July 4th, and the largest was 696, on February 23rd. The figures for 1917 were 109 and 845 respectively. The average attend- ance in the Senn Room for the last week of December was 12 per cent more than in 1917, and was only that amount less than the maximum of 1916. 16 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY It is now ten years since a count of the women readers was made. This was done for five days and the proportion determined as 21 per cent as against 18 in 1898 and 12 in 1908. The increase is slight in comparison with what might have been expected and this fact would appear to indicate that women have not replaced men in scientific and technical work to the same extent as in other lines. Use. The decrease in the number of admissions to the stacks has been due in part to the change in the conditions governing admissions already mentioned and in part to the greater absorption of workers at home in their regular tasks. This is especially true of the physicians of the city. Of the 1,831 admissions 1,580 were by registration and 251 on presentation of 20 passes. Nine addi- tional passes have been granted, making 112 nominally in force. In 1918 for almost the first time the number of calls has changed in about the same proportion as the attendance; the decrease has been from 177,978 to 150,302, or about 15 per cent. Still it has not been quite as large and the calls per reader have risen from 1.34 to 1.35. Using the same factor as last year, the total use may be esti- mated as nearly 462,000. A detailed classification of the call slips for books and of admis- sions to the stack is given in the second table of library statistics. A comparison of the totals and percentages for each department with the corresponding figures for 1917 follows: Calls 1917 Percent Total age Unclassified T.868 or Books 19 Total 2,297 20,921 26,831 18,539 10,349 23,782 47,583 Admissions to the Stack 8 1917 1918 Percent- Percent- Percent- age Total age Total age General Works . . .

The last is, however, only the recovery of a previous loss. The six leading subjects were medicine, engineering, chemical technology, trade and transportation, political economy, chemistry. Chemistry has dropped from fourth to sixth place and political economy has replaced physics. REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 17 The recorded calls for assistance by telephone were 980 and the requests for information by letter were 91. The figures for 1917 were 1,070 and 131 respectively. The work with the cameragraph has increased remarkably. The orders for 1918 were 261, requiring 4,008 sheets, for which charges amounting to $397.55 were made. For 1917 the figures were 251 orders, 3,431 sheets, $377.30 charges. The service by loans for use outside the Library has again broadened and increased slightly. There were granted 546 requests for 690 volumes from 116 libraries and 1,104 requests from 344 individuals. For 1917 the figures were 534 loans of 663 volumes to 104 libraries and 1,106 loans to 315 individuals. Seven requests from libraries were refused and in seven cases the books loaned were asked for while out. Several loans had to be postponed because of the regulation prohibiting mail or express service between December fifteenth and January fifteenth. The loans obtained by the Library for its readers were 22 of 23 volumes from five libraries. Two requests were refused because the books asked for were at the bindery. The time required to fill calls has been determined in the same way as for the previous year. The average time was 4.52 minutes, as against 4.53 in 1917. The record of the causes of failures to supply books called for is as follows: at bindery, 446; otherwise unavailable tem- porarily, mostly burned or stolen and not yet replaced, 32; in use by another reader, 715; withdrawn from general circula- tion, 47; not found on shelves, 416; errors of library assistants or records, 175; total, 1,831. The total is 1.20 per cent of all the call slips presented. Excluding the first four causes as un- avoidable, the avoidable failures were 0.39 per cent. For 1917 they were 0.43. In view of the numerous changes in the evening staff and the crowded condition of the shelves the fact that there has been no increase in the time required to fill calls and a distinct decrease in the avoidable failures reflects great credit on those who thus directly serve the public. Publications. In June the Library issued its Twenty -third Annual Report, a pamphlet of 64 pages. An edition of 7,000 copies was printed and nearly all distributed. i8 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY In June the Library also issued A Catalogue of French Economic Documents from the Sixteenth, Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries, a publication of 104 pages. The collection is bound in 25 volumes and contains 1,471 pieces. It was acquired in 1904 in exchange for part of the duplicates from the Gerritsen purchase. In the same month the Library also issued A List of Books, Pamphlets and Articles on Cremation, including the Collection of the Cremation Association of America. This is a duodecimo pamphlet of 52 pages, containing 376 titles. The numbers of the various publications remaining in stock are given in the following table, which shows their distribution during the year.

The distribution of one copy of each catalogue card to the Armour Institute of Technology, Chicago Public Library, Field Museum of Natural History, Library of Congress, Northwestern University, University of Chicago, and the Uni- versity of Illinois, has been continued; also the sending of one copy of each card printed by the Library to Columbia University, Harvard University, New York State Library, Princeton Uni- versity, Royal Library at The Hague, St. Louis Public Library, University of California, University of Iowa, University of Mich- igan, and Yale University. Besides other special orders of limited scope ten standing orders have been received, three of which were for war work. The distribution amounted to 196,742 cards, of which REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 19 81,004 were sent to the depository libraries, 3,967 sent as gifts, and 111,821 sold or sent in exchange. The present state of the Union Catalogue is shown in the following table: Receipts in 1918 Total Library of Congress 31.553 75,577 Royal Library, Berlin 94,790 Royal Library, The Hague 4,635 34,089 Harvard University 3,520 37,961 University of Illinois 6,251 40,298 University of Chicago 1,088 10,999 University of California .... 746 Total 47,047 969,460 Selection and Ordering. During the year 8,6 n orders were given. Of these 771 failed or were cancelled, leaving 7,840 valid orders covering 14,766 volumes at an estimated cost of $22,994; 6,588 orders were filled, covering with the standing orders for con- tinuations 10,333 volumes at a cost of $18,395. There are left outstanding, in addition to the orders for continuations, 5,180 orders for 9,006 volumes, at an estimated cost of $12,985; of these 2,280 were given before January i, 1918. The distribution of the orders of the year, of the total to the end of 1918, and the net estimated cost, to the nearest dollar, are given in the second table of library statistics. Accessions. The total accessions of volumes for 1918 have been 14,525, of which 4,192 have been received as gifts and 10,333 obtained by purchase. Volumes made by binding serials are included in these figures. There have been withdrawn 360 volumes, leaving the net accessions for the year 14,165, which with the 384,603 reported for 1917 make a total now on the books of 398,768. There remain to be entered only the Laufer purchase, about 14,000 volumes, and about 1,000 volumes of the Gerritsen purchase. These have their own catalogues, and particular books can be obtained when asked for, so that the total number of volumes available is very nearly 414,000. The number of maps and plates added during 1918 was 434 and one was withdrawn, making the total number now on the record 12,888. There have been received 15,797 pamphlets as gifts; author slips for 6, 1 68 titles were filed in the official catalogue; the classified col- lection was increased by 10,581 pamphlets; and the collection of 2O THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY trade catalogues by 429. The number added to the classified col- lection includes the number of titles filed, but both these numbers have no necessary connection with the number reported as re- ceived. Many of the pamphlets received are duplicates, and many more are continuations, or for various reasons are put elsewhere than in the pamphlet collection. On the other hand, pamphlets already in the Library have been classified and entered in the official catalogue. Of the 10,581 net accessions to the classified collection, 1,029 were from the Gerritsen purchase; 544 from the Newberry Medical Collection; 718 from the Chicago Academy of Sciences; and 109 from other accumulations, leaving 8,181 as the new accessions of the year. Their classification is shown in the second table of library statistics. To the classified collection of some 125,040 should be added those still unclassified, about 24,900, and the trade catalogues, about 5,040, making a total of approx- imately 155,000. The following table shows the distribution of the net accessions for 1918 and the totals entered, by departments, together with the percentages of the classified volumes: 1918 DEPARTMENT Volumes Per cent Pamphlets Volumes Per cent Pamphlets Unclassified 114 17.082 2/1.036 General Works. . . 1,948 14 1,196 * / v 54,255 14 *T-yo w 17,111 Social Sciences . . . 4,584 33 4,411 105,292 28 44,275 Physical Sciences. 781 5 389 30,721 8 6,471 Natural Sciences. . 957 7 945 37,585 10 5,711 Medical Sciences . 1.703 12 531 72,882 19 29,332 Applied Sciences.. 4,078 29 3, I0 9 80,051 21 22,140 Trade Catalogues. 429 5,040 Total 14,165 11,010 398,768 155,016 The purchase of books on the war would have increased the proportion of the Social Sciences much more decidedly if it had not been to a great extent balanced by a decrease in the regular purchase in this department. The percentages of the totals in the different departments has not varied. The assistants in charge of periodicals report that 82 titles have been withdrawn from the general list and 249 added, and that 31 have been withdrawn from the medical list and 20 added, making a total now on the two lists of 4,187 copies of 4,156 titles. Unfortunately the Library is not in receipt of anything like this number. Twenty-six out of 285 English periodicals on the general list, 137 out of 288 French, 16 out of 64 Italian, all the Russian REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 21 and Scandinavian, and all but five of the German, have not come. For these reasons the expenditure has been much less than the appropriation, and, as ordered by the Board, the unexpended balance will be added to the Book Purchase Reserve in order to enable the Library, after the war, to fill the gaps as completely as possible. The assistant in charge of the Continuation Record reports 667 titles added to the list and 260 withdrawn, leaving 13,677 at the end of the year. About 5,748 are obtained by subscription at a cost in 1918 of $2,678. These furnished 1,372 volumes entered on the record of accessions. The other continuations were received as gifts or in exchange, and furnished 1,76*7 volumes. For the gifts i, 86 1 first and 600 second requests were sent and 32 reported to the Librarian for personal letters. For the purchases 403 first and 26 second notifications were sent and one reported to the Librarian. Here again the effects of the war are very noticeable. The expendi- ture, notwithstanding the increase in the number supposed to be obtained by purchase, was less than in 1913 by $3,600. Of individual purchases the most important were Flore des Serres et des Jardins de I'Europe, Photographs of the Vegetation oj China and Japan, made by the Arnold Arboretum, and a set of Stereo-Clinic. A few additions were made to the early printed books, of which perhaps the most important is the Tetragonismus of Archimedes, Venice, 1503. The sets of periodicals completed or extended were more numerous than usual and include: Allgemeines Journal der Uhrmacherkunst; Annales du Musee Guimet; Avicul- tural magazine; Colb urn's United Service magazine; Deutsche Uhrmacher Zeitung; Gardeners' chronicle; Gardening; Hermathena; International sugar journal; Journal of the Bombay Natural History Society; Journal of the West of Scotland Iron and Steel Institute; Proceedings of the Dorset Natural History and Anti- quarian Field Club; Publications of the Botanical Society of Edin- burgh; Textile mercury; Transactions of the Institute of Naval Architects. Long runs of the journals and sessional papers of British Columbia, Nova Scotia, Ontario, and Quebec were added to the public documents. An earnest effort was made to obtain as complete a collection as possible of the herd and stud books of American breeders. A large proportion of these were secured in a number of cases the societies very kindly presenting them. 22 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY There were received as gifts 7,526 volumes and 15,797 pam- phlets from 4,138 donors. The volumes entered in the record of accessions were 4,192. The figures for 1917 were 24,284 volumes, 30,165 pamphlets, 4,189 donors, and 6,610 entries. The much larger figures of 1917 were due, of course to the receipt of the collection of the Chicago Academy of Sciences. This year the Academy sent 167 volumes and a box not yet counted. The other gifts included 336 volumes and 26,268 pamphlets on agriculture from Dr. H. E. Horton; 280 volumes and 750 pamphlets from the Wendell Phillips High School; 101 volumes and 200 pamphlets from F. W. Schacht of Downers Grove; 138 volumes from the Chi- cago Municipal Reference Library; considerable collections of medical books from Drs. C. N. Johnson and Eugene Talbot and the American Medical Association and the usual collection of college catalogues from Northwestern University. Duplicates. The sales of the year amounted to 313 bound volumes, 45 unbound volumes, 2 pamphlets and 55 numbers, for $101.88 and 1,750 pounds for $13.13. On priced exchange 53 bound volumes, and 28 unbound volumes at $73.55, have been sent. On piece for piece exchange 731 bound volumes, 119 unbound volumes, 10 pamphlets and 425 numbers have been sent; 81 bound volumes, 137 unbound volumes, 333 pamphlets and 335 numbers have been received. A very considerable part of the duplicates from the collection of the Chicago Academy of Sciences has been disposed of to four institutions for a total of $2,474.45. Also 35 bound volumes of an architectural periodical have been withdrawn and sold to the Art Institute for $155.00. The total of these sales is less than the deduction reported by the Treasurer because the latter includes refunds for overcharges and volumes returned to dealers. Inventory. The eighth inventory has been continued and shelves 400 to 499 and 700 to 999 read. One hundred and twenty- seven serious misplacements were corrected. Of 32,059 volumes 22 were missing, and one other volume was not returned to the De- livery Desk. On the other hand, 16 volumes previously reported lost have been found, so that the net loss from the regular shelves was 7. The losses from the reading rooms have been about as in recent years. Seventeen are missing from the main Reading Room and seven from the Senn Room. The net loss for the year is 3 1 and the REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 23 total for 21 years is 605 or i in 660. Twenty-nine mutilations have been detected. The losses of periodicals, 89, and the detected mutilations, 25, are about the same as in 1917. Fortunately it has been possible to replace most of them. Binding. On January i, 1918, there were at the binderies 702 volumes, and 8,788 were sent during the year; n were returned as incomplete, and 8,584 bound; leaving 904 at the binderies December 31, 1918. About one-third were bound by The Newberry Library. The cost of binding was $8, 669, an average of $ i . i o volume . This is an increase of 10 per cent over 1917. The cost of shelf - marking the accessions of the year, together with a considerable amount of repairing, inserting bookplates, and similar work, was Catalogues. The Cataloguer reports that during the year 5,359 new titles have been prepared for print; 157 new titles type- written; 6 1 titles prepared for print to replace old typewritten titles and 30 to replace Library of Congress titles; 4,365 titles received from the Library of Congress have been classified for the catalogues; 175 titles have been prepared for the co-operative analysis of serials. The total number of titles treated by the Cataloguer and Classifier and their assistants has been 12,185, which is about the same number as in 191 7. The titles reprinted in correction of errors were 77 and for other alterations 606. Cards for 5,942 new titles and 965 reprinted titles were received from the printer; electrotypes for 1,074 new titles and 342 reprinted titles from the electrotypers. The total number of separate titles prepared for print to date is 122,319; of sets of cards received, 120,845; of electrotypes, 63,907. The number of orders sent to the Library of Congress on tripli- cate order sheets was 8,566 and reports were received on 8,431. There were cards for 4,270 titles on hand January i, 1918; 5,250 were received during the year, and 4 were taken from the file of those previously withdrawn; cards for 4,589 were used, and for 852 withdrawn from the file, leaving those for 4,083 on hand December 3ist. Of those withdrawn 2 titles were returned to the Library of Congress and 850 were cancelled. Of the 5,250 titles received, 548 were analytical titles from 342 serial publications. Of the 4,083 titles on hand 1,084 are f r book orders before 1918, 24 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY 1,263 for those of 1918, 273 for regular standing orders, and 1,332 for three special analytical orders. The work of the Library in the co-operative analysis of serials has been continued. It has supplied 175 titles and received cards for 399, of which 61 have been filed in the public catalogue and 72 have been sold. There have been added 30,864 cards to the classed catalogue, which now contains some 202,600 titles on 533,735 cards, an aver- age of 2.63 cards per title; 18,358 cards have been filed in the author catalogue, which now contains the same 202,600 titles on 358,219 cards, an average of 1.77 cards per title; 573 guides and 6,927 cards have been added to the subject index, which now contains 28,100 guides and 84,439 cards covering 182,634 titles, an average of 0.46 card per title. The distribution of the cards in the classed catalogue, by departments, is shown in the following table: CARDS DEPARTMENT 1918 TOTAL General Works 9,714 177,192 Social Sciences 8,589 139,150 Physical Sciences 1,308 34.H7 Natural Sciences 2,408 56,594 Medical Sciences 4,365 4SiS I 7 Applied Sciences 4,480 81,135 Total 30,864 533,735 Of the 202,600 titles in the public catalogues about 119,200 are on cards printed by the Library, about 69,700 on Library of Congress cards, about 12,100 on A. L. A. co-operative cards, 321 on other printed cards, and about 1,400 are typewritten. To the combined index of federal and state publications there have been added 4,748 cards, making a total of 148,176. The greater part of the increase in the regular arrears due to the receipt of the collection of the Chicago Academy of Sciences has been taken care of and so much work has been done on the other accumulations that the total arrears have been reduced from 746 shelves to 693, and of these 144 are Orientalia and 58 are pamphlets. Meetings. The Library was represented officially by the Libra- rian and unofficially by two other members of the staff at the an- nual meetings of the American Library Association, the Special Li- braries Association, and the National Association of State Libraries REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 25 at Saratoga Springs, July ist to 5th; and the Librarian attended, in behalf of the Library, the meeting of the American Library Institute at Atlantic City, February i5th and i6th. The Library was represented unofficially by six members of the staff at an informal symposium on Americanization and Reconstruc- tion held in Chicago, December 2yth to 29th, under the auspices of the Chicago Library Club. Because of the epidemic of influenza no meeting of the Illinois Library Association was held in 1918. The Library joined the other libraries of the city and some private collectors in an exhibition of incunabula, held at the Art Institute in December. Its contribution, though not so large as those of The University of Chicago and the Newberry Library, was very important because of the unusualness of the subjects, the beauty of some of the specimens, and as containing the earliest prints. The latter were from the collection of Orientalia. Staff. Two members have died during the year: Miss Mary B. Hibbard, senior assistant, on July 28th, and Mr. John Pratt, attendant, on April i5th. Miss Hibbard served as assistant in the Senn Room, beginning as junior assistant in February, 1911 and having been promoted to senior assistant (on half time) in January, 1918. Her service was faithful and efficient. Mr. Pratt began as page and was promoted to attendant in 1916. His service also was faithful and efficient. The following resignations have been received: Miss Margaret Terwilliger and Mr. John Krauth, junior assistants; Messrs. Paul Brennan, A. M. Earle, Henry Everaert, Anthony Gabler, Paul H. Grove, Henry Hedges, John W. Hoppesch, Joseph Nelson, Sidney Schencke, James S. Thompson, attendants. Seven of these resig- nations were from the evening staff, but the Assistant Librarian reports that the increase in the minimum for the grade of attendant and the employment of high school instead of college students promise to furnish a more permanent staff in future. Four mem- bers of the staff have had leaves of absence for war service and one because of what is hoped is a temporary physical disability. The following appointments have been made: Miss Helen D. Brown as senior assistant; Miss Ella M. Salmonsen as senior assistant for half time; Misses Mayme Cole and Edith Larson and Mr. Walter Thiele as junior assistants; Miss Wanda Rash- inski and Messrs. Paul Brennan, John Ellsworth, August Everaert, 26 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY Henry Everaert, Henry Hedges. John Krauth, Joseph Nelson, J. D. Vignola, Aloysius Weimer, and Alexander Zanazaro as at- tendants. The following have given temporary service: Miss Elizabeth Wilson and Christine S. Trepp as senior assistants; Misses Mayme Cole, Jessie Hinckley, Anne Holcomb, Maude Kersten, Ruth Kringle, Clara Lachmund, Mrs. Ruby Lane Taylor, Messrs. W. F. Stone and John Kolenburg as junior assistants; Misses May Duncan, Blanche Heisermann and Florence Lundgren as at- tendants. Five pages have left the service during the year, two have been promoted, and twelve have been engaged. The following are now on the staff: Harvey Gorss, George Mann, Morris Cohen, Edward Lietz, George Hanus. Two charwomen, Mrs. Hattie Hjalmarson and Mrs. Mary Gavin, have left the service after having been with the Library 14 and 12 years respectively. The absences on account of illness have been more frequent than usual although we were so fortunate as to suffer very little from the epidemic of influenza. These, the long absences of regular mem- bers, the pressure of extra war service, and not least the inevitable distractions of the exciting occurrences of the year, would have caused a serious deficiency in the amount of routine work accom- plished had not these influences been met in part by a diminution of the work to be done but more by harder work on the part of the staff. It is hoped that the Board will recognize the faithful char- acter of their service. Respectfully submitted, CLEMENT W. ANDREWS, Librarian. CHICAGO, January 16, 1919. , Sg INO 1 VO Q B M 1 M 1 HI 5 .

The assistants in charge of periodicals report that 113 titles have been withdrawn from the general list and 199 added, and that 25 have been withdrawn from the medical list and 32 added, making a total now on the two lists, of 4,282 copies of 4,249 titles. Unfortunately the Library is not in receipt of many of these 21 periodicals but it is hoped that by the end of 1920 the discontinua- tions, suspensions and gaps of the last four years can be determined and the records corrected. The assistant in charge of the Continuation Record reports 697 titles added to the list and 231 withdrawn, leaving 14,143 at the end of the year. About 5,867 are obtained by subscription at a cost in 1919 of $4,174. These furnished 1,934 volumes entered on the record of accessions. The other continuations were received as gifts or in exchange, and furnished 1,382 volumes. For the gifts 1,855 nrst an d 500 second requests were sent and 18 reported to the Librarian for personal letters. For the purchases 165 notifications were sent and one reported to the Librarian. Here again the return to normal conditions is evident. The expenditure has risen by $1,500 though it is still $2,100 below that of 1913. The increase is due in part to a resumption of publishing in other European coun- tries and in part to the receipt of a large shipment of German con- tinuations of 1916 which had been held in Leipzig. The most important purchase of the year, and indeed for many years, was the collection of pamphlet material on the Natural Sciences made by the bookseller, Herr W. Junk of Berlin. This is stated to contain over 100,000 items and an offer of 210,000 marks for it has been accepted. It is needless to add that only the present low exchange value of the mark made the offer possible at this time. The collection has not yet been taken over and cannot reach Chicago in time for treatment in the present quarters even if there were room to handle it properly. It is already broadly classified and has a card catalogue, so that it can be made available to scholars in a very short time after work on it is begun. Of individual purchases the most important are : Theophrastus, Opera, Leyden, 1520; Ptolemaeus, Geografhia, Niirnberg, 1525; Hortus sanitatis, 1538; Terzio Lana, Prodroma overo saggi di alcune inventioni nuove, Brescia, 1670; Bekker, Teutsche Ornitho- logie; Quellen zur Geschichte der Stadt Wien; Descourtelz, Ornithologie bresilienne; and a collection of medical theses of the University of Montpellier, 1909-1918. Among the periodical sets completed or extended may be men- tioned: Annales de geologic et de paleontologie; Bulletin de la Sod el e royale de geographic d'Anvers; Chemical trades journal; Naturalista Siciliana; Nieuiv archief voor wiskunde; Tijdschrift van der Neder- 22 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY landsch aardrijkskundig genootschap; Transactions oj the Society of Tropical Medicine: and the Victorian Naturalist. Considerable additions have been made to the sets of herd and flock books, to the sessional papers of the provinces of Canada, and to the set of Kansas documents. There were received as gifts 6)831 volumes and 17,392 pam- phlets from 3,494 donors. The volumes entered in the record of accessions were 3,687. The figures for 1918 were 7,526 volumes, 15,797 pamphlets, 4,138 donors, and 4,102 entries. The Chicago Academy of Sciences has sent two boxes of material. Unfortunately in the absence of the assistant who has had charge of the collection no accurate account of this was kept. The Estate of the late E. W. Blatchford has given 105 volumes and 35 pam- phlets: Mrs. Edward M. Bruce of Chicago 152 volumes: Wm. L. Chenery of Chicago 100 volumes and 435 pamphlets; Drs. E. C. Dudley, John Favill and J. B. Williams large collections of medical works; the People's Gas Light and Coke Co. 104 volumes and 20 pamphlets; and the Lewis Institute and the Library of Northwestern University large collections of college catalogues. Among the individual gifts should be mentioned a MS. volume of notes on glucose written and presented by Dr. H. E. Horton. Duplicates. The sales of the year amounted to 372 bound volumes, 31 unbound volumes and 63 numbers, for $209.84. On priced exchange 3 74 volumes for $68.25, have been sent. On piece for piece exchange 244 bound volumes, 49 unbound volumes, 360 numbers and 1 6 pamphlets have been sent; 35 bound volumes, 90 unbound volumes, 278 numbers and 285 pamphlets have been received. Nine boxes of State Reports have been returned to the State Libraries of the States issuing the reports. Of the Chicago Academy of Sciences duplicates, 121 bound volumes, 36 unbound volumes and 256 numbers have been sold for $137.70. Also 66 bound volumes, 38 unbound volumes and 338 numbers, priced at $72.10, are selected and ready to be sent. Inventory. The eighth inventory has been continued and shelves 001-199 read. Ninety-four serious misplacements were corrected. Of 41,009 volumes 38 were missing. On the other hand, 17 volumes previously reported lost have been found, so that the net loss from the regular shelves was 2 1 . The losses from the read- ing rooms have been about as in recent years. Eighteen are missing REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 23 from the main Reading Room and eight from the Senn Room The net loss for the year is 47 and the total for 22 years is 652 or i in 656. Thirty-two mutilations have been detected. The losses of periodicals, 60, and the detected mutilations, 21, are fewer than in 1918. Fortunately it has been possible to replace most of them. Binding. The arrangement by which Messrs. E. Hertzberg and Sons, and their predecessors, Messrs. Ringer and Hertzberg, had done all the general binding of the Library since the beginning was terminated early in the year. The co-operative arrangement with the Newberry Library, previously confined to medical books, was extended to cover all the work. The employees of Messrs. Hertzberg and Sons who had previously done the work of shelf- marking, inserting book-plates, repairing, etc., at the Library, were added to the Library staff. The cost of the work will not be in- creased but it can no longer be stated exactly. On January i, 1919, there were at the binderies 904 volumes, and 8,063 were sent during the year; 8 were returned as incomplete, and 7,814 bound; leaving 1,160 at the bindery December 31, 1919. The cost of binding was $9,220, an average of $1.18 per volume. This is an increase of seven per cent over 1918. Catalogues. In May the death of Mr. H. N. Patterson, of Oquawka, who had printed the catalogue cards since the beginning, caused a serious interruption in the cataloguing. Some time later, after consideration of various plans, an arrangement was made with the widow, Mrs. Florence Patterson, who had superintended the work for several years, to continue it, for at least three years, on a somewhat different basis. That the new arrangement will be more expensive for the Library was inevitable in view of the recent increases in the cost of labor and materials, but it is thought that it will not exceed much, if any, the cost of doing the work in a printing plant managed by the Library, and it certainly will be much less than the cost of having it done in a commercial establishment in the city. The work will receive the same care and attention as in the past and it is only just to Mr. Patterson's memory to record here the Library's appreciation of his services. For twenty- three years he has supplied cards which have not only been set up and proof- read with remarkable care and accuracy, but printed with great 24 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY uniformity in the best manner. The Library has never feared comparison of its output with that of other institutions. Such a result could be obtained only by the application of scientific knowledge, technical skill, and personal interest in the work. The Cataloguer reports that during the year 4,583 new titles have been prepared for print; 167 new titles typewritten; 130 titles prepared for print to replace old typewritten titles and 23 to replace Library of Congress titles; 4,258 titles received from the Library of Congress have been classified for the catalogues; 310 titles have been prepared for the co-operative analysis of serials. The total number of titles treated by the Cataloguer and Classifier and their assistants has been 13,544, which is 1,359 more than in 1918. The titles reprinted in correction of errors were 54 and for other alterations 516. Cards for 3, 544 new titles and 564 reprinted titles were received from the printer; electrotypes for 763 new titles and 208 reprinted titles from the electrotypers. The total number of separate titles prepared for print to date is 127,055; of sets of cards received, 124,389; of electrotypes, 64,670. The number of orders sent to the Library of Congress on tripli- cate order sheets was 6,764 and reports were received on all. There were cards for 4,083 titles on hand January i, 1919; 4,625 were received during the year, and 2 were taken from the file of those previously withdrawn; cards for 4,491 were used, and for 936 withdrawn from the file, leaving those for 3,283 on hand December 3 1 st. Of those withdrawn 10 titles were returned to the Library of Congress and 926 were cancelled. Of the 4,625 titles received, 454 were analytical titles from 353 serial publications. Of the 3,283 titles on hand 1,087 are for book orders before 1919, 1,015 f r those of 1919, 281 for regular standing orders, and 900 for three special analytical orders. The plan of the co-operative analysis of serials, in which the Library has taken part from the time the work was begun in 1897 has been changed. The results are no longer printed by the Amer- ican Library Association on cards, but by Messrs. H. W. Wilson & Co. in their Readers' Guide Supplement. The Library will continue to render assistance and will receive some compensation for it. In 1919 it prepared 310 titles, and will do more when foreign continuations are received regularly. Of the old printed cards on hand 140 titles have been filed in the public catalogue. REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 25 There have been added 28,219 cards to the classed catalogue, which now contains some 211,700 titles on 561,954 cards, an aver- age of 2.65 cards per title; 16,852 cards have been filed in the author catalogue, which now contains the same 211,700 titles on 375,091 cards, an average of 1.77 cards per title; 527 guides and 5,734 cards have been added to and 4,957 biographical cards withdrawn from the subject index, which now contains 29,200 guides and 85,216 cards covering 195,114 titles, an average of 0.44 card per title. The distribution of the cards in the classed catalogue, by depart- ments, is shown in the following table : CARDS DEPARTMENT igiQ TOTAL General Works 10,808 188,000 Social Sciences 7,533 146,683 Physical Sciences 1,668 358i5 Natural Sciences I.S7S 58,169 Medical Sciences 2,542 48,059 Applied Sciences 4,093 85,228 Total 28,219 561,954 Of the 211,700 titles in the public catalogues about 123,900 are on cards printed by the Library, about 73,900 on Library of Con- gress cards, about 12,200 on A. L. A. co-operative cards, 321 on other printed cards, and about 1,400 are typewritten. The total number of cards and guides is 1,051,449. To the combined index of federal and state publications there have been added 13,075 cards, making a total of 161,251. So much work has been done on the accumulations, especially the pamphlets, that the total arrears have been reduced from 693 shelves to 620, and of these 144 are Orientalia and 37 are pamphlets. Meetings. The Library was represented officially by the Librarian and Assistant Librarian and unofficially by three other members of the staff at the annual meetings of the American Library Association, the Special Libraries Association, and the National Association of State Libraries at Asbury Park, June 23rd to 27th; officially by the Assistant Librarian at the annual meeting of the Illinois Library Association at Peoria, October 7th to 9th; and unofficially by the Librarian at a meeting of University Librarians at Chicago, December 3ist. In February the Library exhibited at the Art Institute, through the Caxton Club, some fifty of the most important and attractive of its illustrated works on ornithology. 26 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY The Librarian has been appointed a member of the Research Information Service of the National Research Council, a part of the United States Council of National Defense. He considers this appointment as ex-officio and as a recognition of the assistance which the Library should be able to render. Staff. The Library has lost by resignation the services of three members of the staff who have served it long and faithfully. They are: Miss Mary E. Hawley, Assistant Cataloguer, from September, 1898 to October, 1919; Miss Charlotte H. Foye, senior assistant, from November, 1896 to August, 1917, since which date she has had leave of absence; Miss Alpha L. Owens, from September, 1905, to October, 1918, since which date she has had leave of absence. The Directors have expressed formally their appreciation of Miss Hawley's services, but those of Miss Foye in charge of the shelf list and of Miss Owens in charge of the gifts have been as careful and intelligent. Resignations have also been received from the following: Miss Georgia Weston, and Messrs. D. J. Porto and Benjamin Jaffe, junior assistants; Miss Wanda Rashinski and Messrs. John Krauth, Noah Fox, Gunnar Mikkelsen, Alexander Zanazaro, John Ells- worth, George Hanus, William Searles, Harvey Gorss, George Mann, and August Everaert, attendants. The following appointments have been made: Misses Josie Ward, Georgia Weston, and Hazel Burk, and Mr. John Kolenburg, junior assistants ; Misses Florence Lundgren and Bertha Rundstrom, and Messrs. August Everaert, George Hanus, William Searles, James Brimstin, Howard Sheehan, Morn's Cohen, Richard T. Kelliher, attendants; Mr. Richard Diemecke as binder. The following have given temporary service: Misses Elizabeth Wilson, Lydia Stefanski, and Lillian Tarnow as senior assistants; Misses Anne Holcomb and Maude Kersten and Mr. Wilbur F. Stone as junior assistants. The following are now on leave on absence: Miss Grace Kelley, classifier; Misses Ethel M. Wight and Helen D. Brown, senior assistants. Seven pages have been engaged, five have left the service and there are only two now on the staff. It has proved impossible to se- cure the services of either boys or girls at the present rate of pay or indeed at any which would be commensurate with the other 27 salaries. It may prove necessary to employ attendants instead of pages until present conditions change. Indeed these conditions make a revision of the present schedule a necessity if the Library is to secure in the future the same high grade of service it has had in the past, and it is hoped that Directors will find it possible to make such a revision and in so doing to con- sider the loyal service of the present staff.

No change has occurred in the membership of the Board, which is composed of the following persons: Robert T. Lincoln, Frank S Johnson, Marvin Hughitt, Thomas D. Jones, John J. Mitchell^ Leonard A. Busby, Robert Forsyth, Chauncey Keep, Frederick H. Rawson, Albert A. Sprague II, Walter B. Smith, Chauncey B. Borland, and Rollin D. Salisbury, together with William Hale Thompson, Mayor of Chicago, and George F. Harding, Comptroller of Chicago, ex-officio members. The officers of the Library are as follows: President, Marvin Hughitt; First Vice-President, Thomas D. Jones; Second Vice- President, Robert Forsyth; Secretary, Walter B. Smith; Treasurer, William J. Louderback; Librarian, Clement W. Andrews. The erection of the steel frame of the Library building was delayed five weeks by the steel strike of 1919 but was completed by the middle of April. The erection of the walls was delayed three months by two strikes at the quarries and was not completed until the last of October. There have been other less important delays also, so that the building will not be out of the hands of the con- tractors until after the first of February. The expiration of the lease of the rooms in the Marshall Field & Company Building on April 3oth compelled the Library to close on May ist, and to store the books and furniture. The most valuable were sent to a fireproof storage warehouse, and the rest placed in the building next north of the one under construction. This building furnished also quarters for the temporary business offices and for the routine work of the staff in the reception, cata- 7 8 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY loguing, classifying, and shelf-listing of the acquisitions, which were received and cared for without a break. The chief part of the work of removal was begun May 3d, was completed by July 3ist, and the whole of the old quarters vacated on that date after an occupancy of twenty-five years and one month. The second removal, from storage to the new building, was begun December 6th and by the end of the year one-third of the books had been transferred. Fortunately the walls of the building had been carried up, before the second strike at the quarries, far enough to permit opening, on August 3oth, a temporary reading room on the third floor, so that the Library was completely closed for only four months less four days. Even during this period as many demands as possible were met, chiefly for loans, cameragrams, and research work. The temporary reading room made available to the public the current periodicals, both general and medical, the public catalogues, and a selection of the most used reference books. The use of these has been larger than was expected and the many expressions of gratitude for even this limited use and of regret for the break in the broader work of the Library have shown that it renders a much appreciated service to the community. Another proof of this has been received in the bequest, subject to a life interest, of $5,000 under the will of the late Dr. Nathan Smith Davis, Jr. No statistics of the total use of the Library for the year are available but it may be estimated at nearly half the normal amount. The collections have been increased by 13,201 volumes and 23,272 pamphlets and now contain approximately 440,000 volumes, 13,000 maps and plates, and 178,000 pamphlets. The Library has on its records 4,329 titles of current periodicals and 14,625 other serials; but notwithstanding the receipt of several large consignments from Germany and other European countries it is evident that many of these must be cancelled as no longer published or as unobtainable. For all details in regard to the administration of the Library, reference is made to the appended report of the Librarian. The report of the Treasurer, also appended, presents, as required by law, a statement of the income and expenditures for the year 1920, and a statement of the assets and investments. REPORT OF THE PRESIDENT 9 In order to retain the grade of service which the Library has always had, the Directors in January, 1920, authorized a general increase in salaries, ranging from 20 per cent for the higher posi- tions to 25 per cent for the lower. Notwithstanding this increase the Library has lost an unusually large number of employees who have been in its service many years. Owing to the curtailment of income and the increased cost of operation, including taxation, the Directors have decided to post- pone opening the Library in the evening.

Respectfully submitted, WILLIAM J. LOUDERBACK, Treasurer. CHICAGO, January 20, 1921. REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN To THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY: Gentlemen: The work of the year 1920 has been of such an unusual character and carried on under such peculiar conditions that in many respects there is no basis for comparison with that of previous years. This is as true of many of the smaller details of library administration as of the principal matter of service to the public. From January ist to May ist the Library was in its old quarters and the work was practically normal; from May 3d to Aug. 28th it was closed to the public and the routine work was partially suspended while being removed to temporary quarters; from August 3oth a portion of the work with the public and full routine work has been carried on in these temporary quarters; and in December the second removal to the permanent quarters was begun. Of necessity the Librarian and Assistant Librarian have been chiefly occupied with the arrangement and preparation of the tem- porary quarters, with the equipment of the permanent ones, and with the two removals. Rooms. The space on the seventh floor of the Marshall Field & Co. Building was given up on April 23d; that on the fifth floor during July; and the sixth floor on July 3 ist, after possession of over a quarter of a century, from July i, 1895. The temporary quarters have been in the building 158-162 North Michigan Ave., belonging to the Library and adjoining the new building, with which it was later connected. No alterations and only the most necessary repairs were made. It is not fireproof so that a watchman has been employed day and night and the records and most valuable books have been placed in a storage ware- house. The building has five floors and basement with a total area of about 36,000 sq. ft. The routine work was assigned to the upper floor. This is lighted by skylights and has proved to be quite con- venient. The office desks were placed in the front part of the ground floor. Though cramped in space the arrangement has not been extremely inconvenient. The rest of the ground floor, the three REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 15 middle floors, and the basement have been used for the storage of the books and furniture. Because of the limited strength of the floors the space has not been more than sufficient. In August the third floor of the new building, 5,000 sq. ft. in area, was equipped as a temporary reading room and on August 3oth opened to the public from 9 a.m. to 5 130 p.m. It has offered the use of the current periodicals both general and medical, of the most used reference books, also both general and medical, of the public cata- logues, and a very limited but constantly increasing use of the books in the stacks. There are seats for 83 readers. An entrance entirely independent of the building and free from all danger to the readers from the work of construction was secured by the use of the emer- gency staircase between the two buildings. Removal. In February and March a few of the most valuable books and some of the least used equipment were placed in storage ; in April the seventh floor was cleared; from May 3d to June i5th the bulk of the books, about 300,000 in number, were moved; taking down and storing the stacks required from June i5th to July 31 st; the books and furniture in the reading rooms on the sixth floor were moved in July and the desks and office equipment in the last week of that month. The details of the removal of the bulk of the books may be of interest. This was done in 34 trucks constructed by the janitor, 7 of which were held in reserve. Each truck consisted of three boxes 3'xi'6"xi'6" placed one over the other on their sides, screwed to- gether and the bottom one to a frame mounted on four wheels. The cost of material was only about $6.00 each. A waterproof cloth cover fastened over the open side. Each box contained exactly two shelves or about 135 volumes. The dray used held nine trucks or about 1,200 volumes and seven drayloads made the work of a day of eight hours. Occasional delays occurred in the service of the dray, chiefly through obstruction of the alley in which it was loaded, but the principal factors in determining the speed of the work were the capacity and availability of the elevators. To move 300,000 volumes in less than 40 working days required steady work, especially as some furniture was moved at the same time. The force employed was eight men, two each at the shelves, the elevator, on the dray, and emptying the trucks. The books were placed on their sides on the floor, half a shelf in each pile. It was not found practicable to obtain access to the piles by mak- 1 6 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY ing them one shelf high and leaving aisles between, and indeed at the time it was not expected that they would remain in storage for more than a few weeks. It was not until December 6th that the first book was placed in the new stacks. Since that date the work has gone on as steadily as possible but for various reasons it is subject to serious interruptions and will not be completed before the middle of February. Much time and thought have been given to new equipment re- quired for the permanent quarters. Almost all of this has now been ordered and the greater part is ready for installation. In addition the progress of construction has been watched not only with interest but with practical results in the suggestion of minor changes and in the correction of some errors and omissions in the specifications and of some failures on the part of the contractors to carry these out as desired. As it now stands the building promises to justify the belief that it meets the requirements of the Founder in being "tasteful, substantial and fireproof, " and that it will afford convenient accom- modation for the readers, very satisfactory quarters for the staff, and sufficient space for the books. Special Collections. From the income of its special fund seven titles have been added to the Huntington W. Jackson Collection on Constitutional Law, which now contains 1,089 titles, of which 133 have been purchased from the fund. Some work has been done on the pamphlets of the Senn Collection. One of the first readjustments in the new building will be its instal- lation and the making of a final count. The income from the fund for the Gradle Collection on the Eye and Ear has been spent for periodicals and 33 have been added to the 434 already having the bookplate. There are now 957 titles of books and some 3,000 pamphlets in the collection. The Chanute Collection on Aviation contains 775 books, some 635 pamphlets and 2,500 clippings. The Cremation Association of America has continued its sup- port of the Collection on Cremation, which now contains 168 titles of books and 261 pamphlets. The Collection of the Chicago Academy of Sciences has been increased by the receipt of 170 volumes and 283 pamphlets. About 50 more volumes will be added to the collection from the income of the endowment, after payment to the Academy of the amount due its publication fund. REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 17 There have been added to the Collection of Trade Catalogues 218 in continuation of previous gifts and in response to 27 requests. The total number in the collection is now 5,524 pieces from 2,334 firms. One other special collection has been acquired. In January the Directors authorized the acceptance, under the usual conditions, of the David L. Barnes Memorial Library. On May 27th the transfer of title from its Board of Trustees to the John Crerar Library was consummated as of June ist, 1919. The collection is on railroad engineering and it is hoped that it will strengthen the Library on this subject, and especially in regard to material on rolling stock. At present it is still in storage and all that can be said is that it is packed in 20 cases. Attendance. The total number of visitors recorded from January ist to May ist was 42,635, and from August 3oth to De- cember 3ist, 5,885, the total for the eight months being 48,520. The smallest attendance in the first period was 125 on January ist; and in the second 25, on September 3oth and October ist. Until the latter part of October the contractors, notwithstanding repeated demands, failed to supply heat to the building, and on the days men- tioned the temperature was below 50 F. That anyone should have used the Library under such circumstances shows the importance of the service it renders and effectually removes, from some of the readers at least, the suspicion that they use it as a comfortable loafing place. The largest attendance in the first period was 735 on April 3d, and in the second 90 on December 3 ist. Use. The recorded use covers only the period from January ist to May ist, inclusive. The calls for books were 65,325, a daily average of 622 and a slight increase over the figures for the same period in 1919. The visitors admitted to the stacks during this period were 1,148, an increase of 441 or 60 per cent. Part of this was due probably to the removal of war-time restrictions, but part also to the concen- tration of research work in anticipation of the closing of the Library. Only the second cause could affect the percentage of calls per reader, which rose from 1.28 for 1919 to 1.53 for the first four months of 1920. The recorded cases of assistance rendered by telephone were 1,028 and by letter were 183. The figures for 1919 were 1,245 an d 1 66 respectively. Under the circumstances the work of the reference librarians is remarkable. i8 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY As the cameragraph was in storage after June ist, the record of 2,246 sheets on 226 orders, for which charges amounting to $378.55 were made, is also remarkable, though it should be added that some of this work was done by a commercial house. Loans for use outside the Library were made as usual until May ist and more freely than usual during the rest of the year, whenever the books were available. There were granted 842 requests for 1,017 volumes from 127 libraries, and 1,073 requests from 401 individuals. For 1919 the figures were 690 loans of 833 volumes to 115 libraries and 1,368 loans to 384 individuals. Many loans requested by libraries and individuals could not be made because the books were not available, and six requests from libraries were refused for other reasons. In two cases the books loaned were asked for while out. The loans obtained by the Library for its readers were 13 of 22 volumes from five libraries. Two requests were refused. When all these elements of service are considered it seems rea- sonable to estimate the total use of the Library for the year at nearly if not quite one-half the average of recent years. Publications. In June the Library issued its Twenty-fifth Annual Report, a pamphlet of 58 pages. An edition of 6,000 copies was printed and nearly all distributed. No other publication was made. The numbers of the various publications remaining in stock are given in the following table, which shows their distribution during the year.

Because of the great increase in the cost of printing Harvard University and the University of Chicago have increased the price of their cards, and the Committee on Admini- stration has authorized a similar increase for those of The John Crerar Library. This increase will go into effect for 1921. The distribution of one copy of each catalogue card to the Armour Institute of Technology, Chicago Public Library, Field Museum of Natural History, Library of Congress, Northwestern University, University of Chicago, and the University of Illinois, has been continued; also the sending of one copy of each card printed by the Library to Columbia University, Harvard University, New York State Library, Princeton University, Royal Library at The Hague, St. Louis Public Library, University of California, University of Iowa, University of Michigan, and Yale University. At the end of the year the standing order from Columbia University was cancelled. Besides other special orders of limited scope four standing orders have been received. The distribution amounted to 157,852 cards, of which 65,651 were sent to the depository libraries, 1,228 sent as gifts, and 90,973 sold or sent in exchange. The present state of the Union Catalogue is shown in. the folio wing table: Receipts in 1920 Total Library of Congress 28,930 807,163 State Library, Berlin 7,641 102,431 Royal Library, The Hague 5,230 43,809 Harvard University 5,?6o 46,921 University of Illinois 3,849 46,930 University of Chicago 2,226 15,923 University of California .... 746 Total 53,636 1,063,923 Selection and Ordering. During the year 5,884 orders were given. Of these 384 failed or were cancelled, leaving 5,500 valid orders covering 151,405 volumes and pamphlets at an estimated cost of $22,063; 5> 2 8o orders were filled, covering with the standing ord- ers for continuations 10,099 volumes at a cost of $17,781. There are left outstanding, in addition to the orders for continuations, 4,508 orders for 128,460 volumes and pamphlets, at an estimated cost of $10,103; f these 2,328 were given before January i, 1920. These figures include the 120,000 pamphlets on the Natural Sciences, for which a draft of 210,000 marks has been purchased, leaving a 20 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY further payment, estimated at $1,278, to be made. Besides this purchase, the excess of expenditures for books and periodicals over the appropriations, due to the filling of old standing orders, has been charged to the Book Purchase Reserve. This still has $5,463 available for this purpose. The distribution of the orders of the year, of the total to the end of 1920, and the net estimated cost, to the nearest dollar, are given in the second table of library statistics. The standing orders for certain classes of material on the War have been cancelled. The work of selection has fallen behind because of the amount of time given by the Librarian to the work of removal and partly be- cause of the unsettled condition of the foreign book-trade. It is fortunate that the large orders for German publications of 1914-1918 given in 1919, were sent in at that time. Most of these were filled at prices which the low rate of exchange made very favorable to the Library. In January, 1920, however, the German Government required the addition to the domestic prices for books exported of a " Valutaausgleich " or compensation for the low exchange value of the mark. For the United States this has varied from 150 to 350 per cent ; and to this a " Teuerungszuschlag " and sometimes an export tax is added. The result is that at present an American purchaser is charged four times as many marks as a domestic buyer. As the domestic prices have been increased from five to ten times the pre-war prices for books of the same value, the American purchaser pays from twenty to forty times as many marks or from one-third more to three times as many dollars. The matter is complicated by the fact that second-hand dealers (for books published before 1900) and periodical publishers are not obliged to add the Valutaausgleich but frequently do so. It is further complicated by the fact that the German dealer receives part of this charge and so is enabled to offer customers in the United States special terms as to trans- portation expenses. In view of these circumstances the Committee on Books has instructed the Librarian to make as few purchases of new German books as possible and to make these and the sub- scriptions to the necessary serials and periodicals through a German dealer. The consideration of each title under these instructions and the reconsideration of all standing orders are now under way. The transfer of the standing orders alone is no slight task. REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 21 The order for the collection of pamphlets on the natural sciences has not yet been filled, though 91,000, filling 77 cases, have been sent to the shipping agent in Hamburg. It is hoped that the trans- action can be completed in a few months. Fortunately this purchase was made before the imposition of the Valutaausgleich but the Library has accepted the imposition of an export tax of twenty per cent. It is now stated that the collection will amount to about 120,000 pamphlets. Accessions. The total accessions of volumes for 1920 have been 13,587 of which 3,488 have been received as gifts and 10,099 obtained by purchase. Volumes made by binding serials are included in these figures. There have been withdrawn 386 volumes, leaving the net accessions for the year 13,201, which with the 412,364 reported for 1919 make the total now on the books 425,565. There remain to be entered only the Laufer purchase, about 14,000 volumes, and about 900 volumes of the Gerritsen purchase. These have their own catalogues, and particular books can be obtained when asked for, so that the total number of volumes which will be available on reopening is about 440,000. The number of maps and plates added during 1920 was 104, making the total number now on the record 13,172. There have been received 14,708 pamphlets as gifts and 20,000 on the medical sciences by purchase; author slips for 1,417 titles were filed in the official catalogue; the classified collection was increased by 3,054 pamphlets; and the collection of trade catalogues by 218. The number added to the classified collection includes the number of titles filed but both these numbers have no necessary con- nection with the number reported as received. Many of the pam- phlets received are duplicates, and many more are continuations, or for various reasons are put elsewhere than in the pamphlet collection. Their classification is shown in the second table of library statistics. To the classified collection of some 133,812 should be added those still unclassified, about 38,500, and the trade catalogues, 5,524, making a total of approximately 177,800. The following table shows the distribution of the net accessions for 1920 and the totals entered, by departments, together with the percentages of the classified volumes: THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY DEPARTMENT Volumes Per cent Pamphlets Volumes Per cent Pampbleti Unclassified /[/[ 2O,OOO 18,026 28 coo General Works. . . 1,838 14 491 58,625 14 O'-'JO 1 ""-' 18,327 Social Sciences . . . 4,255 32 1,294 114,048 28 47,574 Physical Sciences. 738 6 42 32,183 8 6,499 Natural Sciences.. 874 7 38 39,223 10 5,88o Medical Sciences . 2 AT 7 19 559 77,235 J 9 3i,492 Applied Sciences.. 2,975 22 630 86,225 21 24,040 Trade Catalogues 218 5,524 Total 13,201 23,272 425,565 179,836 The growth has been symmetrical, and the percentages of the totals in the different departments remain the same as in 1919. The assistants in charge of periodicals report on the two lists, general and medical, a total of 4,350 copies of 4,321 titles. While many of the periodicals which suspended or failed to reach the Library during the war have now been received, many others have not and it will still be some time before an accurate report can be made. Some idea of the extent to which the files of German periodicals have been affected by the war is given by the statement of the assistant that of 620 on the general list no numbers for 152 have been received since 191:6, while of the 468 which were received in 1920, 128 lack all of 1917, 153 all of 1918, and 45 all of 1919. The assistant in charge of the Continuation Record reports 871 titles added to the list and 289 withdrawn, leaving 14,625 at the end of the year. About 5,943 are obtained by subscription at a cost in 1919 of $4,610. These furnished 1,540 volumes entered on the record of accessions. The other continuations were received as gifts or in exchange, and furnished 1,217 volumes. For the gifts 1,360 first and 680 second requests were sent and 24 reported to the Librarian for personal letters. For the purchases 176 notifications were sent. Here again the return to normal conditions is evident. The expenditure has risen by $1,500 though it is still $1,600 below that of 1913. The number of titles will be reduced considerably in 1921 by the cancellation of the German orders of minor impor- tance and by the withdrawal of many which appear to have ceased publication without being completed. Reference has already been made to the purchase of the collec- tion of pamphlets on the natural sciences. Of individual purchases the only important ones have been Hortus sanitatis, ed. Johannes Cuba, 1476, and a set of the works of J. B. Alberdi. REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 23 Among the periodical sets completed or extended may be mentioned: Andes del Circulo medico argentine; Bibliothek for laeger; Archhio per le scienze medic he; Boletin mensual del Museo social argentine; Fire and water engineering; Hygieia; Micrographe preparateur; II Morgagni; Papers and Proceedings of the Royal Society of Tasmania; Paedagogisk tidsskrift; Revista del Asociacion medica argentina; Den tekniske foreningstidsskrift; Transactions of the Devonshire Association for the Advancement of Science; Water and gas review; Zeitschrift des Kgl. Preussischen statistischen Bureaus, Berlin. There were received as gifts 5,034 volumes, 14,134 pamphlets and 53,574 numbers of periodicals from 3,667 donors. The volumes en- tered in the record of accessions were 3 ,483 . The figures f or 1 9 1 9 were 6,831 volumes, 17,392 pamphlets, 3,494 donors, and 3,687 entries. The larger gifts have all come from individuals or institutions in Chicago and include: Alliance franchise, 158 volumes; Dr. Launce- lot W. Andrews, 158 volumes; Chicago Public Library, 248 volumes; Mrs. Junius M. Hall, 102 volumes; Dr. Horace E. Horton, 74 volumes and 53,574 numbers of periodicals; Mr. Willis C. Squire, two boxes as yet uncounted; and the University of Chicago, 238 volumes and 133 pamphlets. Some of the volumes from the University of Chicago were early state documents selected from a very large number sent on inspec- tion. The duplicates were sent to Oberlin College. The file of Massachusetts documents was extended by a considerable gift from the Massachusetts State Library; that of Michigan by 80 volumes from the University of Michigan; and that of Victoria by 62 volumes from the Public Library of Melbourne. Duplicates. The sales of the year amounted to 22 bound volumes, 18 unbound volumes and 181 numbers, for $95.27. On priced exchange 45 volumes for $78 . 25 have been sent. On piece for piece exchange 353 bound volumes, 2 unbound volumes and 79 numbers have been received. Chicago Academy of Sciences dupli- cates have been sold for $72.50. Inventory. The eighth inventory was not continued because of the storage of the books. It is very important that the ninth should be started as soon as possible after they are replaced on the shelves in order to correct the many displacements which must be anticipated, and to determine if any considerable loss has been in- curred in the double removal. 24 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY The losses from the Senn Room for the year are reported as 22, but 5 volumes reported lost in previous inventories have been found, so that the net known loss for the year is 17 and the total for 23 years is 669. The mutilations detected have been 22. The losses of periodicals, 48, and the mutilations, 29, are rather numerous, but it should be remembered that the periodicals have been in use for eight months and during the last four under con- ditions which preclude effective supervision. Binding. On January i, 1920, there were at the bindery 1,160 volumes, and 7,334 were sent during the year; 12 were returned as incomplete, and 6,961 bound; leaving 1,521 at the bindery December 31, 1920. The cost of binding was $11,071, an average of $i . 59 per volume. This is an increase of 34 per cent over 1919. Catalogues. The Cataloguer reports that during the year 3,672 new titles have been prepared for print; 115 new titles type- written; 32 titles prepared for print to replace old typewritten titles and 25 to replace Library of Congress titles; 2,961 titles received from the Library of Congress have been classified for the catalogues ; 666 titles have been prepared for the co-operative analysis of serials. The total number of titles treated by the Cataloguer and Classifier and their assistants has been 10,035, which is about 85 per cent of the average number. The titles reprinted in correction of errors were 34 and for other alterations 496. Cards for 5,208 new titles and 635 reprinted titles were received from the printer; elec- trotypes for 325 new titles and 93 reprinted titles from the electro- typers. The total number of separate titles prepared for print to date is 130,727; of sets of cards received, 129,597; of electrotypes, 64,975- The number of orders sent to the Library of Congress on tripli- cate order sheets was 6,195 an d reports were received on all. There were cards for 3,283 titles on hand January i, 1920; 3,676 were received during the year; cards for 3,173 were used in the public catalogues; for 463 in a special file; and for 324 withdrawn from the file; leaving those for 2,999 on hand December 3ist. Of those withdrawn 9 titles were returned to the Library of Congress and 315 were cancelled. Of the 3,676 titles received, 522 were analytical titles from 356 serial publications. Of the 2,999 titles on hand 1,278 are for book orders before 1920, 876 for those of 1920, 616 for regular standing orders, and 229 for a special analytical order. REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 25 There have been added 24,933 cards to the classed catalogue, which now contains some 218,50x3 titles on 586,887 cards, an aver- age of 2 . 69 cards per title; 14,896 cards have been filed in the author catalogue, which now contains the same 218,500 titles on 389,967 cards, an average of 1.78 cards per title; 1,060 guides and 5,623 cards have been added to the subject index, which now contains 30,265 guides and 90,839 cards covering 203,814 titles, an average of 0.45 card per title. The distribution of the cards in the classed catalogue, by depart- ments, is shown in the following table : CARDS DEPARTMENT IQ2O TOTAL General Works 9,287 197,287 Social Sciences 7.4 10 i54,93 Physical Sciences 807 36,622 Natural Sciences i ,342 59,51 1 Medical Sciences 2,830 50,889 Applied Sciences 3. 2 57 Total 24,933 586,887 Of the 218,500 titles in the public catalogues about 127,500 are on cards printed by the Library, about 77,000 on Library of Congress cards, about 12,200 on A. L. A. co-operative cards, 321 on other printed cards, and about 1,400 are typewritten. The total number of cards and guides is 1,097,956. No cards have been filed in the combined index of federal and state publications; but 17 boxes have been received, which will be filed as soon as the new cases are available. The total now in the index is 161,251. Meetings. The Library was represented officially by the Librarian at the annual meetings of the American Library Associa- tion, the Special Libraries Association, and the National Associa- tion of State Libraries at Colorado Springs, July 2nd to 7th; offici- ally by the Assistant Librarian at the annual meeting of the Illinois Library Association at Springfield, October i2th to i4th; and of- ficially by the Librarian at a meeting of University Librarians at Chicago, December 27th, and at a meeting of the Council of the American Library Association at Chicago, December 28th and 29th. Staff. The losses in the personnel of the administration have been more numerous and important than in any other year. The following resignations have been received; Mr. H. E. Roelke, Assistant Reference Librarian; Mr. Wm. Teal, Superintendent of 2 6 THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY Delivery; Misses Jennie A. Hulce, Helen D. Brown, Ethel Wight, and Mr. Wm. A. Brennan, senior assistants ; Miss Anne F. Holcomb, junior assistant; Miss Florence Lundgren and Messrs. Wm. Veto and Morris Cohen, attendants. Besides these resignations the serv- ice of all those engaged for evening work, Messrs. Alphonse Comyn, junior assistant, and John Vignola, James Brimstin, Rich- ard Kelliher, Emmet Byrne and Howard Sheehan, attendants, was terminated by the closing of the Library. Mr. Comyn was retained for temporary service in moving, and later Mr. Wm. Teal was also engaged for this work. Because of the uncertainty as to the needs in the new quarters, and as to the funds which would be available, no appointments have been made except that of Miss Hazel Arnett as junior assistant, but the following have given temporary service: Miss Lydia Stefanski as Librarian's Assistant; Misses Lillian Tarnow, Clara A. Ricketts and Ellen True as senior assistants; Mrs. Charlotte Clark and Misses Alfhild Bjerknes and Elisabeth Dauchy and Mr. Alexander Zanazaro as junior assistants. During long absences on leave of the Cataloguer and Classifier Miss Gertrude Forstall, Assistant Cataloguer, served as Acting Cataloguer and Miss Harriet Penfield, senior assistant, as Acting Classifier. Many of those who have resigned have given long and faithful service to the Library: Mr. Roelke for five years; Mr. Teal for nearly nineteen, beginning as an attendant; Miss Hulce for more than seventeen; Mr. Brennan for more than thirteen; Miss Brown for over nine; and Miss Wight for more than six years. To all of them the Library owes a debt of gratitude for their able assistance in its development and the Librarian sincerely hopes and believes that they have left it with feelings of pride and satisfaction in the work they have done while in its service. Of the others who have left the same might be said in propor- tionate degrees, while to those who remain there are due thanks for service remarkably efficient under unusual and sometimes very trying conditions. To Mr. E. D. Tweedell, Assistant Librarian, the Librarian feels a special obligation because of his unremitting and painstaking attention to the details of the removals.

THE JOHN CRERAR LIBRARY TWENTY-SIXTH ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR 1920 CHICAGO PRINTED BY ORDER OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS 1921 REGULATIOXS The Library is a free public reference library, open to readers every day, excepting Sundays, New Year's Day, Independence Day, Thanks- giving and Christmas, from 9 A. M. to 6 P. M. Umbrellas, suit cases and bags (except brief cases) must be checked in the Cloak Room. Hats and coats must be checked in damp weather, and in dry weather if not worn. No charge is made for the service. The Library will not hold itself responsible for unchecked articles nor for any articles left over night. Books shelved in the Reading Room and in the Senn Room, except as noted below, may be consulted without formality, but after use are to be left on the tables, instead of being replaced on the shelves. Current periodicals, except those on the Medical Sciences, may be consulted in the Periodical Room and may be obtained for use at the tables in the Reading Rooms by presenting at the delivery desk call- slips properly filled out. Current medical periodicals are shelved out- side the Senn Room and may be consulted there. Books not shelved in the Reading Rooms may be obtained by pre- senting at the delivery desks book call-slips properly filled out. These books are to be returned to the desk from which they are received. Persons engaged in special research, if satisfactorily vouched for, may be admitted to the Stack Rooms. Application for this privilege should be made to the Reference Librarians. All books used under this pro- vision are to be left on the tables in the Stack Rooms. Books not suitable for general use may be consulted only upon regis- tration and statement of satisfactory reasons, and those of great value or rarity only in the presence of an attendant. Writing or marking in books belonging to the Library, their muti- lation in any manner, and their removal from the Library, are forbidden. The tracing of plans will be permitted if done over a celluloid cover, but not otherwise. The covers will be furnished upon application at the delivery desk. The officials of the Library are authorized to exclude any person of unseemly behavior or appearance, and any one wilfully violating its regulations. The Reference Librarians, in charge of the Reading Rooms, will give assistance in the use of the library. PUBLICATIONS IN PRINT No bills are rendered.
