PROFESSOR BLAKE REMARKS TO THE CRIMSON

By R. P. Blake.

"It is difficult at the present writing to formulate any definite policy of running an organization as complicated as the University Library, but I plan to follow along the lines so well laid down and so well carried out, which my deceased friend and predecessor, Professor A. C. Coolidge instituted. The problems are in part the question of additional space, in part the choice of various fields in which special attention should be devoted to building up our collections; but the fundamental point at issue is to make the Library an organization which will continue in the future as it has done in the past to meet in an adequate manner the multifarious needs and demands of its numerous users, whether of the Faculty, of the students, or of people from outside."
