Valuable Books for M. I. T. Library

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology has recently obtained an important addition to its library by the acquisition of the Baldwin Engineering Library, which has been deposited with Technology by the Woburn Public Library. This collection of books will remain the property of the Woburn Library but in their desire to give them wider value the Woburn authorities have placed them as a supplement to a library of civil engineering already one of the foremost in the world. The collection contains volumes originally belonging to Loammi Baldwin of Woburn, "the father of civil engineering in America."
