CAMP LIBRARIES.
A. l.. Bailey Interested In the Work for the
Soldiers.


More than half n million books have
been sent by the Amer can Library Asso-
Cat. ON TO Amer can soldiers and sailors IN
tr,.n,np camps. ThIrty-four library
buildings have been, or are being. erected
in the main camps. Trained and experience
ed Librarians have been put IN charge at
these camps to organize and conduct the
| library service. The smaller camps, posts
and forts, and the naval stations and vcs-
sells are being supplied with books and
maga lines through their chaplains, Y. Nj.
IC. A. and knights Of Columbus secrc-
saries. Plans have been made for the
supplying OF books to the men on board
transports and for the shipment of books
to France.
OF the more than half nillion books
sent bv the association to the soldiers and
sailors up to date, one hundred thousand
were purchased out of the fund collected.
The rest are gifts. Books on engineering
and other technical subjects, books on the
war. and books on military training
many of them duplicated TO "a large extent
have comprised the major portion of the
book purchases. This Is because the de-
mand. next 10 fiction, is for books of this
character The gift books which have
been sent TO the camps and elsewhere
are not mere heaps of books Every book
is carefully scrutinized by a librarian
before if is sent TO a camp, and there arc
several large dispatch offices in which the
larger COLLECTION of gift books arc sorted
and prepared for use.
The thirtv-four buildings erected were
made possible by n grant of $500, 900
from the Carnegie Corporation. They
Re forty feet wide and varv in length from
95 to 100 feet. They will accommodate
from 10000 to 5000 volumes, and from
one hundred and fifty to two hundred and
fifty readers The buildings are simple
IN design and construction, but arc rather
more attractive, both ms de and out. than
the other camp build .ngs. They are equip
ped with comfortable cha.rs-not benches
like most camp buildings and provide
quiet, rcstful place for reading and study
