Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Library Chronicle, Vol. 4: A Journal of Librarianship Bibliography
But, gentlemen, I do not propose to take up your time in reviewing what has already been done by the Association. In considering the attitude in which I might venture most reasonably to address you, it has seemed to me that, if I have any title to do so at all, it is that my experience of many years, principally in the work of the department of Manuscripts, and in some degree in.connexion with that of Printed Books, in the British Museum, has necessarily suggested to me considerations in respect to the management of libraries which I might hope to be of value for practical application. And in presenting these to you I naturally have very much in mind the formation and management of Free Public Libraries, as now being established in our own country.
