TERM, 'I UNIVERSITY LIBRI\RY, 'I may be an expression of fact,
faith,
or fiction, Rnd those who use the nRme should be
certain which sense they mean. A false assessment of library
resources is ~s unscholarly as carelessness in any other academic
field and is likely to be more d~maging. A "university" with-
out library f8cilities to support its full progr~m is an in-
congruity.Unfortunately,
adequ~cy is not easily defined,
the annoying question of library st~nd~rds is therefore
often raised. \-lith colleges blossoming into "uni versi ties"
overnight while universities but slowly re~ch their true estate,
both criteriA and judgments are required by which perspective
be gained.
A university is an institution of learning of the highestgrade, h~ving various faculties and schools (including thegrAduate and professional) concerned with all or many of thebr~nches of knowledge; it is permeated by a spirit of inquiryand has its plBce in the world community; by making its studentsresponsive to the findings of research, it chAnges the worldin which they live and alters the pr~ctice of their chosen pro-fessions These are indeed no modest cl~ims, and anacademic body should profess them with gr~vity and c~ution.To achieve its ends, a universit)' leans mainly upon its faculty,library,
and laboratories.
The library of a university is at once its most mut~ble
and most durable possession. Created deliberately, its re-
sources define Rnd determine whRt Rc~demic work c~n be done.

,1ik~_ry Develot?ment
No single year in the history of ~ university libr~ry is
likely to be decisive--every ~dv~nce m~de serves to incre~se
future responsibility. New p~rsonnel, policies ~nd moti-
on pl~y their import~nt p~rt, but libr~ry growth is
grpdu~l ~nd subject to interruption. G~ins persist if they
respond to chAnge And ~re kept ~live by cultivAtion.
Collections
increments of l~rge and signific~nt proportions were
mPde during the ye~r, confirming the University's intent
~nd c~p~city to pursue rese~rch in given fields.
Just qt the beginning of the ~c~demic yeqr the ThOill:§I~urrqy collection wqS received in V~ncouver, ten tons ofsolid-support for the progr~m of C~n~di~n Studies. Composedof severpl thous~nd items which ~re both very importqnt ~ndsc~rce, qnd ~ l~rge stock of books which together consti-tute A collection of bro~d scope And usefulness, the col-lection when fully ~bsorbed will gre~tly strengthen thelibrqry in ~n ~lreqdy well developed Area.

~bout 115 ~re from the Sung and Yn~n dyn~sties (960-1368), 31 326 from the r.1ing (1368~1644), 9,865 from the eqrlyCh'ing ( 644-1820), ~nd the rem~inder from the Modern period(~fter 1820). Of more th~n three hundred m~nuscripts, theoldest is dqted 1426, ~nd some rem~in unpublished. S~id tobe one of the five most import~nt collections on the conti~nent, it will, with other exp~nding resources in Chinese~nd J~p~neseJ bring schol~rs ~nd distinction to the University.

The r~te of growth of the Libr~ry--meAsured in
numbers of volumes processed ~nd sent to the bookst~cks--
rises gr~duAlly, this ye~r's increment being 31,767
volumes (compRred with 30,25$ in 1957/5$ , of which 10,913
were bound periodic~ls
11,710).
The size of the collection
At thE end of the fisc~l yeAr W~s 419,519.
In ~ddition to the books ~nd journ~ls form~lly counted,there were 56,721 items ~dded to the Reference collections(43,746 the previous year): government public~tions, 49,896(37,033), p~mphlets ~nd university c~lend~rs, 5,013 (3,950),~nd m~ps, 1,818 (2,516).

the c~p~bility of the Libr~ry to mAke the, most of every

Sql~ry m~y not be the chief motiv~tion of those who
enter gc~demic life, but its import~nce in ~ttr~cting And
ret~ining desir~ble people is recognized both by f~culty
~nd libr~ri~ns.
During the pAst six ye~rs the sAl~ry floor for begin-ning libr~ri~ns h~s risen by 50% ($2,800 to $4,200), whileth~t for instructors h~s ~dv~nced 64%, or 28% more r~pidly.The incre~se for instructor is expected to re~ch 77% in1960.
VJh~tever the ~rgument for p~rity of s:=,l~ry floors~t this ~c~demic level, there seems little justific~tionfor ~ sm~ller proportion~l incre~se. \dvAncing ~t the f~cultyrAte, the beginning s~l~ry for Libr~ri~n-I would now be$4,592.

The Library Building
The move to add a south wing to the Libr~ry building h~s
advanced through a long history of prospect And planning
into actual production, and many of the problems and pro-
pos~ls with which this report is concerned are tied up with
its completion. The tot~l building will not be l~rge enough
when it is completed, but it will seat a thousAnd more
people, give them greater opportunity for independent study,
and serve them better as the library of a university.
Actual construction of the addition beg8n in July 1959,and completion is scheduled for ~ugust 1960. Four floors ofnew re8ding rooms, eight of bookstR cks, R stack "well" forlater completion, another entr~nce hall into the old wing,Rnd many changes to ~dRpt the existin~ building to its newuses are to be completed within the coming year. Gratefulrecognition is given to Mr. vJalter C. Koerner, whose giftmade this ~ddition immediately possible.
The Friends of the bibrarv
Friends of the University LibrAry, with their own individual
interests norm~lly to the fore, are brought into the Library's
orbit bec~use of some strong but secondary relAtionship with

books. By joining an org8nization they are predisposed

problem of the org~nization of Friends is therefore that
of active engagement.
In the three ye~rs since its formation (in September1956), two outstanding research collections ~nd otherimportant materi~ls h~ve been ~cquired in the n~me of theFriends.
Without this support these great additions couldnot h~ve been made, but the work ~nd cost have been borneby too few individuals. A.dditional "friends of learning"must be found to extend this b~se of ~ssistAnce if theUniversity is to re~ch the position in C~nad~ it is evennow expected to maintain.
r~embership in the Friends is open to all who have
bookish interests ~nd p~y the ~nnual fee of "five dollars

committees, offer opportunity for direct participation

A professional School of 1ibrariAnship, to prep~re ~ selected
group of university grBdu~tes for service in public,
university,
school, and speciAl libraries, h~s been under ~ctive consider-
ation at the University for a number of years. B.qsed upon a
sound undergraduate progr~m of general or speci~lized studies,
(Bachelorit would offer work toward the degrees of B. L. S.
of Librarianship) and M. L. S. and provide courses for
teacher-librarians in the College of Education. Progress
has been made toward these ends in 1957/58.
The propos~l, referred by Senate to the 1ibr~ry Committee,was returned with a fAvorAble recommend~tion, suggesting thatit be presented to the FAculties concerned for consideration.The Faculty of Arts subsequently gAve its ~pprov~l in principle,prescribing thAt the curriculum be presented to the FAculty, aftE!rwhich the School would be ~dministered as are others in theUniversity. In September 1959 the recommendation WAS agein togo to the Senate And the Bo~rd of Governors.
If the School should be ~uthorized during the fisc~l year1960/61, first steps towards its estAblishment would be taken
in the fAll of 1960, with its formal opening in September 1961.

Recommendations
Libr~ry development must pursue a well plotted course or
it will soon describe An orbit which is not related to
campus needs. An annu~l report should recommend, th~re-
fore, as well as review.
(I) The University of British ColumbiA Library, with
limited resources see column 1, tAble below) to support
the growing progr~m of instruction and rese~rch, should
develop its collections more r~pidly through An increased
appropriation for the purchAse of journals ~nd books.
~dding $100,000 a year to the tot~l book fund wouldprovide for the same growth rAte as the universities ofWashington (Seattle), Southern Illinois, ~nd Duke. Weshould still Ipg considerAbly behind such institutions asKans~s, Florid~, Missouri, Ohio Stpte, And vvisconsin, andfAr behind Indi~n~, TexAs, Cornell, and UCL~.
The following table, arr~nged in ascending order oftot~l book stock, shows compqr~ble expenditures upon thecollections (col. 3) and ~nnu~l growth in numbers ofvolumes (col. 2). These libraries, ~ll of ~oon repute(but not including the very greatest), show the p~tternwe must surely follow.
Quantity--of students, doll~rs, st~ff, and books--is a concept we c~nnot overlook. One quantity oftenrequires another to match or offset it, and goals aretherefore often expressed in numericAl terms:
materials occur.

sciences is still virtually impossible in m~ny fields withoutthe purchase of scores of c~stly sets and thousands of basicstudies ~nd texts.
Sever.ql subject fields have already been "brought in"by this means, to undergraduate or grAduate level, notably:Sl~vonic Studies, Asian Studies, C~nadi~n Studies '(includingFrench Canada), Forestry, Fisheries, Fine ~rts, English andFrench l~nguages and literAture.
(III)
Great adv~ntAges in time c~n often be g~ined
by acquiring collections in toto which h~ve been lRboriously
brought together by other people. It is recommended th~t
this prActice, followed this year in securing the Murray
and ptu-pan collectionstbe actively continued.
Members of the f~culty and Friends of the Libraryshould be alert to loc~te and obt~in by gift or purch~serese~rch collections in fields of University interest.
( IV) ~ greater concern for Library development on the
part of the Faculty Association, ac~demic dep~rtmentst
individual faculty members, and c~mpus groups would m~rkedly
accelerate the growth of the 1ibr~ry, and this interest should
be strongly encourQged.
Many persons tend to regAr~ the resources of this Libraryas st~tic in relation to their Qwn research And see tr~vel toother institutions AS the singl~ me~ns of pursuing theirs'erious work. Recent developments (in Sl~vonic, f1..si~n, andC~nadi~n Studies, for exemple) show this is not necessArilythe c~se. Whole-heArted p~rticipation in librqrv developmentis also sometimes held bRpk by ~elf-centered Dep~rtmentalprogr~ms. In meetings of the FAculty Association in recentyears the Library hAS hprdly been mentioned, And the currentbrief dealing with mejor University problems uses the word"Librqry" only in the context of "trqvel. to," in relqtion toproposed study leave.
18
It is recommended that a study of the resources of
university libr~ries in Canad~ be made, looking toward the
development of f8cilities for gr8duate studies on ~ national
sc~le and the production of an AdequAte number of university
te~chers ~nd rese~rch st~ff to meet the n~tion's need.
The N~tional Council of C~nadian Universities .~ndColleges hqs authorized the est~blishment of a committee todiscuss such ~ proposed study. The Committee on ScientificInformation of the National Research Council h~s also demons-tr,q,ted an active concern over the holdings of scientific journ~l~)in regional reseArch centers. The interest of this University(expressed, perhaps, through these org~nizations, the CRnadipnAssociation of University Teachers, ~nd other nation~l scien-tific ~nd professional ~ssoci~tions) would cre~te ~ greatersense of urgency for this basic task.
With the est8blishment of the College LibrRry in
the f~ll of 1960, providing ~ sepRrate collection of books
chosen for students in their first two years, it is recom-
mended th~t instruction in 100 and 200 courses be pl~nned
with the full use of these fAcilities in mind.
The ~ssoci~tion of f~culty, Libr~ry, ~nd Bookstore inan effort to meet fully ~nd speedily the needs of severalthousand beginning students seems imper~tive. The use ofpaperbacks (in p~ckets for specific courses) and anthologiesfor required reading assignments as f~r as possible, ~ndwell plpnned libr~ry collections for broqd re~ding, essaywriting, ,qnd individu.ql studies will give students gre~terfreedom and opportunity to t,qke p~rt in their own educ~tion.
(VII) "Division::!l" re::!ding rooms for the Hum::!nities,
SOCiAl Sciences, Sciences, ~nd the existing Biomedic~l ~nd
Fine ~rts libr~ries will offer improved ~ccess to library
19
mRteri~ls in these ~reRs; ~nd ~ Division of Speci~l Col-
lections will form A center for gr~du~te reseArch in
humAnistic ~nd soci~:l studies. The potenti~l for libr~ry
use by more ~dv~nced students which will arise from these
ch~nges should be c~refully studied.
(VIII) Since the University c~nnot thrive unless the
best procurable st~f:r ~re responsible for libr~ry develop-
ment,
the sqme f~vorAble ~ttention must be given to the
s~l~ries of libr~ri~ns qS to ~ny other University ~roup.
We CAnnot re!1li:~e one day our ~mbition to hRve ~m~ jor uni versi ty lib:rA ry if we choose to "fudge .qlong" (touse A Sh~vi~n phrase) with the remuneration of professionallibr~ri.qns.

Following l~st summer's experiments,colored slides depicting libr~ry mAteriAls ~nd services weresubstituted for R series of class Rssignments, with consider~blesuccess. The r~pid incre~se in the number of sections of 1styear English from ye~r to year (from 48 to 65 to 80) m~y bring~n end to this long-time progr~m of instruction becpuse ofinsufficient st~ff to c~rry it on.

.i£guisitions ~ivisions
How to acquire the right books, secure and pay for them
quickly, in sufficient numbers, and without unwanted dupli-
c~tion ~nd within the funds provided, is the difficult
assignment of this depBrtment.
Expenditures for books pnd 2eriodica1s this year tot~led$1$6,318.3$, an increAse 9f 11.5% over last year's amount($167,003.94). Of this, $12,000 WAS in partial p~yrnent forthe ~1urrAY collection, a single tr~nsaction. (For more de-tRi1ed information, see \ppendix \ and p~ge 5 of this report.
There were 15,493 orders p1~ced (compAred with 17,360 in1957/58); the reduction from l~st yeAr's tot~l WAS c~used inp~rt by the exh~ustion of the m8in book fund before the end of thefiscol ye~r ~nd by ~ speci~l block purch~se of College LibrarymAteri~l; 2,197 orders were pl~ced from used-book c~t~logs.The Division h~ndled 25,233 volumes, of which 21,213 wereforwArded to C~t~loging, the remAinder receivine sp~ciAltreAtment.
Gifts totpled 3,914 volumes (2,991 , ~nd the numberh~ndled in the Division came to 8,909 (3,114). Under r,1r.Stephen Johnson the backlog of qccumul~ted gifts hRs beenvirtually eliminRted, qnd the progr~m of circul~ting dupli-cate lists to libr~ries throughout the world h~s broughtgood results both in books sent ~nd acquired. Rel~tionswith the British N~tional Book Centre h~ve been p~rticularlyprofit~ble.
Offici~l exch~nges of new public~tions with Japanand mainl~nd Chin~ were in~ugurated.
With procedures being continuAlly under study, a newrequisition form w~s designed, better ~d~pted to the controlof bibliogr~phic checking by non-profession~l st~ff.
The Division mpnages on the side, the Libr~ry DeliveryService for f~culty, And i2,47l pieces were sent out (11,397)and a similAr number received. With new buildings rising, the40 estRblished delivery points mAY tend to incre~se, which may
23
require more delivery time And a considerAbly increased cost.The shipping of books for in-service courses to various partsof the Province for the College of Educ~tion also fell to thisDivision during the ye~r.
The Division is now faced with the enormous task ofacquiring most of the 40,000 volumes required for the CollegeLibrary before the opening of the new wing in the fell of 1960.It must ~lso begin to process the Thomas Murray ~nd P'u-pancollections and adjust itself to a normally incre~sed budgetfor the coming ye~r.
Of A total of 13 staff members, there were 6 resignAtionswithin the year And An exch~nge of one member with anotherDivision. Miss Eleanor ~.1ercer, ~lith Miss Priscilla Scott aschief assistant until July 1, 1959, afterwards I.1r.

Comp~ring the bienniAl incre~se of 25% in the number of loanswith the accompanying 29% growth of the student body shows wh~tthe problem will be to keep ~breAst of University exp~nsion.Larger classes clAmorin~ for the s~me list of books, morestudents in the bookstacks misplAcing volumes on the shelves,~nd absenteeism among a growing body of p~rt-time studentassistAnts increase the problems of operation.
~ greater emphasis upon the training of student assistantsand the definition of responsibility for them ~nd the full-timest~ff have p~id off well, ~lthough turnover of staff in bothcategories is a serious h,gndic~p. It has been necessary tosubstitute repeated shelf-reading in much used areas of thebook collection for the annual inventory, and most of thebookstacks hRve been kept in good working order. (\ parti~lcheck showed 734 volumes missing ~t the end of I\ugust.) A.shift of All books on two stAck levels was necessRry to accom-modate new books received.
The purchase of duplicate copies of ~ group of volumesin the Reserve Book collection (some for the College Library)has permitted many titles to be returned to the general book-stacks. ~ study of materi~ls plAced on reserve indicates (1)that many are not in sufficient demand to warr~nt this res-tricted treatment (~nd they h~ve been removed), ~nd (2) awider r~nge of titles for certain courses would mqke theassignments more productive.
~ system w~s devised to provide ~ stock of books forevening students, ~nd l.qrger numbers of books must be pl~cedin this "due a.t 5:00 p.m." ca.tegory if students ~nd coursesincre.qse. Collections in some Dep~rtment~l re~ding rooms mustbe plAced under more responsible control if these depositoriesare to be continued. ~nd a. scheme for collectin~ fines whenoverdue books are returned (ch.qrging an excise for l~ter pay-ment) may help reduce the he~vy cost of billing; 3,228 billswere sent during the year.
Miss Mabel Lanning, with the help of ~Ir. Inglis Bell,First ~ssistant, and the stAff, h~ve come through a very busyyear with a more efficient org~nization and a new record ofaccomplishment. Mr. L,eonard VJilliams, St~ck !\ttend~nt, hasmanaged the bookstack well, And most of the staff h~ve servedwith essenti~l friendliness and requisite cour~ge at thebookstack entry.

The bAckbone of 13 university library is its periodic~l files,
without which it could not stAnd alone ~s a rese~rch collection.
New titles ~nd b~ck volumes must be continually pdded to provide
adequate strength for ac~demic growth
The totpl number of periodic~l titles received is 4,965(4,750 in 1957/5g), with 227 new subscriptions placed duringthe yeAr (227). Of these, 3,662 Rre received by pAid sub-scription, 1,194 by gift, ~nd 109 by exchange. The new titles(see list, I\pp~ndix :§,) range over ~ wide suqject ~re~, but theyinclude only the most pressing wRnts expressed by members offRculty. Volumes of journAls Added tot~led 10,913 (11,710).A list of the most notpble b~ck files acquired is found asAppendix C:l
Loans of unbound issues totpled 10,411, compAred with12,532 Ipst year. This wps the second year in which currentnumbers have been open to all those h.qve st.qck access (3dand 4th yepr students and upw~rd). This hps brought An un-known ~mount of unrecorded use in the bookst.qcks, but the lossof journAl issues is heavy .qnd expensive, cre.qtin,g .q serioush~ndic.qp in binding ~nd uninterrupted use.
The receipt of journpls in severAl scientific fields wasreviewed during the year while helping to preppre A b~sic listof journ~ls for A committee of the Nation~l Rese~rch Council.Our holdings of these fund~ment~l journ~ls is f~irly complete,but we do not r~te so well for the less common titles ~nd forthose published in l~nguAges other th~n English, French, andGerm~n.
There ~re serious g~ps in our list of Russi~n publi-cptions, both in the origin~l lpngu~ge ~nd in English tr~ns-l~tion.
vvith qu~ntity, the problems of binding incre~se. Whilemost libr~ry m~teri~l must sometime be bound, it is difficultto tqke it out of circul~tion long enough to put it throughthe binding process. Journ~ls, reference works, theses,"rebinds", ~nd p.qperbqcks ~ll present their p~rticul~r problemsof timing, ~nd these ~re ~s serious ~s those of h~ndling ~nd
26
cost. In seven ye~rs the Bindery's output h~s incre~sed neqrly300% (from 3,00g volumes to 11,099 in full binding), but b~ck-logs of current rnAteri~l ~re developing, ~nd l~rge numbers ofbooks need to be rebound. Incre~sed binding fpcilities m~ysoon be required.

Recorded use of m~teri~ls ~t the Br~nch (where it cqnbe re~dily g~uged) w~s 14,954 (comp~red with 10,776 l~styear), ~nd there were 2 $85 lo~ns during the three summermonths of ~1~y, June, July (1,900 in 1957/5$). The incre~seprob~bly derived from ch~nging te~ching methods for thelower ye~rs, exp~nding rese~rch progr~ms, ~nd p growinginterest in post-gr~duRte educ~tion. Interli0r~ry lo~nsnumbered 375 items lent (261) ~nd 74 borrowed (79). T~b-u1pted use of .iournqls, by d~te of public~tion (tot~ling$,153 volumes borrowed At the Br~nch, chiefly clinicql inn~ture), shows th~t 2$% of use was of m~teri~l published inthe curren~ year (25%), 64% of volumes were d~ted 194$-195$(6$%), 5.5ro were issued from 193$ to 194$ (5%), ~nd 2% werefor ~11 previous ye~rs (2%). There was ~ gre~t upswing inthe number of reference questions Asked, 4,997 (1,9$1).Bibliogr~phic~l 1pctures numbered 5 (1 in 1st ye~r r~edicine,2 in Nursing, 1 in PhArm~cology, 1 in Physiology).
~.dditions to the collection in the field of Medicinetot~led 2,773 (3,050), bringing this scction up to 35,715(32,942). Thirty new journ~l titles were ~ddcd ~nd onec~ncelled. Titles in the r1edic~1 field tot~l 1,292, withanother 580 relev~nt titles in the Biologic~l Sciences.

It w~scoming close to replizAtion Rt the end of the ~c~demic year.
Two speci~l committees provide guid~nce ~nd supportfor the Biomedic~l Libr~ry, one representing the F~cultyof Medicine (Dr. Sydney Friedmpn, ch~irm~n, Dr. Willi~mGibson, ~nd Dr. J.

The Extension LibrAry
For twenty-two years the University Libr~ry And the Dep~rt-
ment of Extension hAve provided An extension librAry service
to persons in the provinc e without "AdequAte" locp,l fAcil-
ities.
During th~t time the Extension Libr~ry h~s kept
a continuing supply of books in the h~nds of m~ny ~vid
re~ders ~nd provided m~teri~ls needed for Extension ~nd
correspondence courses.
30
~fter many yeArs in tempor~ry qu~rters, the ExtensionLibr~ry h~s ~t lAst moved into sp~ce specific~lly designedfor its use. Close to the gener~l book collection, to theprocessing dep~rtments, ~nd to shipping fAcilities, withample shelving ~nd work ~re~s, ~nd with ~ door opening uponc~mpus tr~ffic l~nes, service should be more ple~sqnt togive ~nd more effective.
During the ye~r there w~s ~n incre~se from 465 to 502gener~1 borrowers And from 142 to 152 in the dr~m~ group. .
Gener~1 1o~ns totp1ed 13,954 (13,555), p1~ys, 5,621 (5L678),~nd books for correspondence courses, 1,703 \1,364). Inth~ 1~st c~tegory, the most ~ctive were En~lish 200 ($41volumes)
Educ~tion 520 (404), English 429 (146), ~ndHistory 304 (100). There were 2,390 volumes borrowed forthe Extension Libr~ry service from the mAin UniversityLibr~ry.
"Your books h~ve kept me from becoming completely'bushed,'" wrote q borrower from ~n interior r~nch. "Theqv~il~bility of your service h~s never me~nt so much tome as it h~ s since living in Co~l H~rbour ...p. very smallpl~ce, in the winter only ~bout 50 people ..." From thewest co~ st of V~ncouver Isl~nd: "I think the Libr~ry iswonderful,
especi~lly to an old ~nd rqther lonely womqn.""I regret th~t bec~use of fqiling eye sight I must wi th-dr~w from your f~mily of re~ders. I would like to t~kethis opportunity to th~nk you for unf~iling kindness ...over so long ~ period." \nd: "The Government h~ve begunsending me cheques for fifty-five doll~rs, so I qm cele-brqting by enclosing five dollqrs ...tow~rds ~ new bookfor the libr~ry which me,ans so much to me."
Miss Edith Stew~rt Extension Libr~ri~n since 1949,is very widely ~nd wArmly reg~rded by ~n import~nt if not~lw~ys influenti~l group of British Columbi~ citizens.She ~nd her ~ssist~nt form one of the firmest links theUniversity h~s with the province it serves.

The Curriculum L~bor~torv
The Curriculum 1~bor~tory is not ~ libr~ry in the normgl
sense but ~ collection of prescribed qnd supplement~ry
text books pnd rel~ted mpteri~l, m~int~ined for the
benefit of student te~chers enrolled in the College of
Educqtion.
Opened in the f~11 of 1956, qt the time of
the estpbl.ishment of the College, it has existed in
crowded tempor~ry qu~rters And l~st ye~r served ~n
enrollment of 1,445 students.
loAns during the yeAr totpled 34,567 (31,495 theprevious year) from A collection of 8 i 774 volumes; 1,521items were added during the period. osses h~ve been
heavy, 534 volumes not h~ving been returned (574 in1957/58). ~ picture collection of 13,000 cl~ssified And
mounted items h~s been built up, with some 5,000 additionalpictures being mounted but unl~beled; most of the work ofprepprption has been done during the ye~r just completed.
~lthough students crowd into the l~bor~tory through-out the ye~r, most of the lo~ns ~re mpde just prior tothe "pr,qcticum" periods, so thpt pepk lopds ch~r~cterizethe service given, when thous,qnds of volumes ~re borrowed orreturned within ~ few dpys time. lVIrs. ~nneke Bertschm~n~ged the service with strength ~nd im~gin,qtion through-out the ye~r, with one full-time ~ssist~nt pnd p~rt-timestudent ~ids. It h,qs not been possible to fill the positionof profession~l libr8ri,qn which has been ,qv~ilAble for twoye,qrs.
Mr. Vlalter L~nning, of the College of Educ~tion,h~s worked AS li~ison between the College ~nd LibrAry withinterest ~nd underst~nding.

In\cknowledgmen~
Forty-four ye~rs provide the b~ckground for this ~nnual
survey, And in thpt eventful period m~ny persons ~nd
events h~ve ~de the Library wh~t it is. The r~nge of
~cknowledgments is therefore both wide ~nd long.
He~ding the list for this ye~r just p~sserl is Dr.Sqmuel Rothstein (whose m~nifold ~ccomplishments unfortu-nAtely go unmentioned elsewhere in this report) ~nd Miss\nne Smith, followed by the Division He~ds and members'of st~ff n~med in the ~tt~ched list. President p~cKenzie,the Fin~nce Committee, the Bo~rd of Governors, ~nd thedep~rtments of administr~tion hAve never f~iled in theirsupport when needed. The Sen~te LibrAry Committee ~ndm~ny individu~l f~culty members h~ve given time ~ndthought to developing the collections ~nd service.
Through the Friends of the Libr~ry great g~ins h~vebeen mpde, particulArly b~c~use of the interest of r4r.VIAlter C. Koerner, Ch~irm~n of the Committee on W~ys ~ndMe~ns.
To Dr. W~llace Wilson, pAst-President, ~1r. KennethCaple, President of the Friends, ~nd to other Councilmembers WArm ~ppreci~tion is ~pressed. The speci~l con-tributions of mAny individuals ~nd groups h~ve been ack-nowledged elsewhere in this report.
The Sen~te is the University's highest ~c~demicauthority ~nd the gu~rdi~n of its st~nd~rds, ~nd it must,therefore, be the Libr~ry's foremost Advoc~te ~nd defender.This support hAS never yet .f~iled.
