LIBRARY SCIENCE.
A New Department Which Has Ma ID g
Great Progress Since It's Origin
Fourteen Years Ago.

Library work is becoming an exact
and exclusive science, says the Chi.

ago." said Herbert Putnam, librarian
of congress, "that the first regular
department. of library science was es-
tablished, and that having its origin
in Columbia university, New York.
under the dictum of the college libra.
rian, Melville Dewey. When he re-
moved to the state library he took
his new department, students and all,
with him to Albany and formed the
New York state library school, which
has since attained such high stand.
ard. Only some 20 or 80 of the best
qualified students are admitted out OF
the hundreds of applicants. In all the
library schools the number is necess
sarily limited, 80 being the maximum
number.
''The course is two years in most
of them, sometimes three. Out of all
the schools combined last year there
were not more than 600 graduates
Every one of the schools is main
tanned in connection with a library
that the students may have the prac-
teal side of the instruction as well as
the theoretic.
There are now schools in Brooklyn
at the Pratt institute, in Philadelphia
at the Drexel institute and at the
University of Illinois, while summer
courses are given at Amherst and at
the University of Wisconsin, at Mad
ison. The one that was formerly con-
nected with the Armour institute has
teal sire of the instruction as well as
one in Los Angeles abolished"
Columbia university has had spe-
cial department of library science for
the last three or four years, at which
lectures are given by Ainsworth R.
Spofford, Mr.. Cresnell, of the bureau
of education, and Mr.. Cutter, the Ii
brarian of the agricultural depart
ment. This year there are nearly 80
students taking this course in addi-
ton to their other college work.

charge of the library, and it has be-

It is question whether Mr..

away the more money. Probably Mr..
Carnegie's total will be the larger
when his plans for the Carnegie in
stitute at Pittsburgh have been de-
veloped, but Mr.. Rockefeller's gifts to
the Chicago university alone have
reached nearly $1o,ooO,0Oo.
Mr.. Rockefeller's wealth is esti-
mated at $3.50, 100000: Mr.. Carnegie's
at $200,O0o,O00. Mr.. Carnegie's inter-

his name amounts to S146.250,000. His
