Printed lists, both for distribution and for "aids in book selection," out of date or with many titles not in the library or never to be there. Collections of books no longer timely. Numerous small collections of books which are better placed on the regular shelves. Books so scattered are constantly reported out or are undiscovered by timid searchers. Like every semi-thrifty woman I am unwilling to burn the things I ...
