The men who guard the tomes which hulge the University library announced their vacation-time borrowing policy yesterday. Word from Widener outlawed the withdrawal of reserve books from the Reading Room, while books not on the reserve lists may be borrowed in the time-honored fashion at the horseshoe desk.
At the Union and Boylston reading rooms, similar rules will prevail. However, books on the reserve list there may be taken out over the vacation if the special approval of the Boylston librarian is obtained.
