der the supervision of DIR. L. ]. Gordon of
the Board of Trustees, upwards of 1900
volumes had been placed in the new build
Ing, and by the middle of next week the
trustees hope that the work will be COM
pleted.
| J. L. Newman, of Washington and York
streets, has the contract for the removal
and he has a staff of men on hand busily
engaged in transferring from the rooms
of the old library the wooden boxes con-
tanning. the books Employees of the Lii
brary take the books from the shelves,
place them in the boxes, which are pre-
cisely the length of the modern standard
library shelf, and then the contractor $
men carry out the boxes to the vans
There are three vans engaged At the
time one Of them is being unloaded at
the new Library a. second is on its way
between the two buildings while the
third is being loaded at the old building.
The greatest care is being taken with the
volumes in transit.
While all this is going on the Free Lii
brary delivery wagon is transferring un-
ciassl1ed books, documents and the mass
of papers which accumulate in free
libraries
During the process of removal no books
will be given out and not for week after

| directed that prior to removal two books
be loaned out on one ticket. In this way
from fifteen to twenty thousand volumes

Before the formal opening of the new
library building on Jersey avenue it will
