The Library Collections.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The gains in the various collections at the library have been about as large as usual during the last year, although the alterations in the building, that are now underway, have greatly hindered the proper handling and classification of the new books.

The only large addition by gift is a set of books and pamphlets in the Slavic languages, given by Dr. A. C. Coolidge, numbering 2,523 volumes in all. They are for the most part Russian, and have been distributed through the various departments of History and Literature.

The library gains some 5,000 volumes yearly by purchase, and about the same number by gift, and although the two batches in which the Slavic books were received were the only large additions, yet the smaller donations have brought the number of volumes up to the average. These books were on various subjects, so that no department or collection has made any marked advance over the others.

The past year has had no extraordinary developments, but has been on the whole a good average year for the library.
