The most radical change perhaps and that

books being rearranged and thoroughly recassled

to tho illness Of the librarian work has been impeded
somewhat, and all the departments will not be ready
for use in September: indeed. 10000 volumes can
hardly be classified properly in two months. But the
library is becoming yearly more important factor II
education is appreciated more and morc by the
students, and little inconvenience may well be borne
for while if the library is eventually put into good
shape for convenient practical service.
