THE LIBRARY'S SERVICE TO THE COMMUNITY
Reading edition
This division of the subject is that which has been most discussed, and its subject matter is that in which most progress has been made. It is creditable to libraries that what they do for the public has extended and developed to a marvelously greater degree than what the public does for them. Whether it is equally creditable to the public “is another story.” The first seven papers reproduced bear on the subject of library service in a somewhat general manner and are arranged chronologically.
