WOMEN IN LIBRARIES.

It is thought by many librarians that the large
sum lately given for libraries in New-York and
other cities explains the increase in the number
of women who are taking systematic course OF
study in library work in the summer schools at
Amherst College and Wisconsin University. A
woman who is well known in library work said

There are some DISADVANTAGES TO be considered
in this profession. The hours OF labor are usually
