Books In Foreign LanGuages.
Formerly the books or an American
circulating library. were issued only
in English, but the large percentage
OF foreign population in the United
States has called FOR books in other
languages This is especially true OF
the branch Libraries IN the larger
cities. Books upon most subjects OF
popular interest in the city library are
now supplied in Russian French. Ger
man, Swedish, Lithuanian, Hungarian
Italian, modern Greek, Slavic POrtu-
guese and other languages The
number of Spanish speaking possessions
has created a great demand for Spanish
books even in centers where no Span
ish speaking people reside The mod
ern as well as the classic Spanish
literature may be found IN most large
libraries. Business men having rela-
lions with Spanish speaking territory
find the Spanish shelf of the public
library Of especial value TO them.
The greatest problem now confront
ing the modern library development IS
the Standardization Of the classifying
and cataloging methods As every
state has its own separate educational
system, so most OF them have their
library commissions and every large
library is TO certain extent in
dividualistic. Yet It is desirable that
some uniformity IN the classification Of
books should be secured. and the
American Library association is work
ing towards this end
