Widener Receives Periodicals

Harvard College Library receives over 2500 periodicals and society reports, according to a estimate made by officials in Widener.

More than 1500 of these publications are received by subscription of the University while the remaining are accounted for by gift subscriptions and free reports from learned societies. These come to Harvard from all parts of the world. To lessen accounting work the majority are handled by agencies which take care of 200 or more.
