REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS.
To His Honor the Mayor and City Council:
The directors of the public library submit their forty-first annual report, and for the details would refer you to the report of the librarian and the state- ments of the officials having charge of the several funds.
The library has been of increasing usefulness to the people of the city, and this has been appreciated . by the public and by the city government which this year made an appropriation, which will greatly in- crease its value as a library and storehouse of knowledge. Heretofore it has been a mass of books, large, and pretty well selected considering the num- ber and wealth of the community using it, and from which the reader might procure good books if he happened to know that they were there or could find them after searching the annual additions of many years. But such a mass of books is not a proper
42
330
ANNUAL REPORTS.
library from which one can readily find all the sources of knowledge it contains upon any subject of investigation. Such a library ours will be when the work so happily begun shall have been completed, if the city shall make the appropriation suggested in the librarian's report. This work of classification with the card catalogue will add more to the real value of the library than would the expenditure of several times the cost in books.
We would call attention also to another suggestion of the librarian, which is the rendering accessible to the public the books of reference. This subject was considered by the book committee in the early part of the present year. The committee decided upon what seemed to them the best plan, one convenient to those who should desire to consult the books of reference in the library, and with the least danger of damage or depredation as regards the books. But this plan involved the expenditure of about thirty-five dollars and the committee had no funds for the pur- pose under their control. In return for the expen- diture of this small sum a very material gain to the users of the public library could be secured. It can easily be seen how much more convenient such an arrangement would be in the use made of the few books of reference upon the desks in that part of the Simpson Annex which is open to the public.
331
PUBLIC LIBRARV.
We have a large and well selected library for its purpose. Compared with libraries of cities of its population and wealth, or even with many much larger and richer, the Newburyport Public Library is a noble institution, and it should be our endeavor to extend its usefulness to the greatest possible de- gree. We have done much in this direction the past year. Let us endeavor to do as much in the coming year by completing the arrangement of the books and the card catalogue, and by giving free access to the reference books so that all who wish to consult them shall find no hinderance.

REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN.
To the Book Committee: =
GENTLEMEN :- This is the 41st annual report of the librarian, showing the state of the public library on November 30, 1896, the close of the library year.
A year ago the number of books on the shelves was 30,889. Since that date there have been added 883 volumes, and 57 have been canceled, 39 of which were not deemed worthy of replacing. There have been lost or are missing 15 volumes. In most of these cases demand by mail addressed to the parties charged with these books are returned endorsed "Can't be found." Nor is the police department any more sucessful in tracing them, the inference being that they have removed from town. In some in- stances, as not infrequently happens, books may have been misplaced on the shelves and will later be ac- counted for in the work of reclassifying. The total number Nov. 30 is thus, 31,731.
333
PUBLIC LIBRARY.
The number of books withdrawn during the II months that the library was open for that purpose was 38,561. This is a slight falling off from the previous year, 269 copies, but is 2,812 in excess of the average of the six years from 1890 to 1895 in- clusive.
The largest per centage of books drawn from the library is that of fiction and juvenile literature, amounting to 74.22 of the whole, or a trifle less than three-quarters. This, however, it may be stated, is somewhat below the average of libraries of the class to which this one belongs. To test the matter I selected the reports of three Essex county libraries at random, and found that their average circulation of this class of literature was 79. As a further test I then took three other reports from institutions widely separated, and obtained the same result, 79. It has come to be accepted as a fact that about three-quar- ters of the calls for books in popular libraries will be of this order.
There is an element of fallacy, however, in reach- ing this gauge of public demand, which it is well not to overlook. This lies in the fact that fiction is read more rapidly and turned over more frequently than other literature. To illustrate: it is not extravagant to estimate that a novel reader might devour two
334
ANNUAL REPORTS.
books a week. This means that in 50 weeks such a book a popular story might be taken out 100 times. The reader of another class might require his volume for two weeks. In that case the book could circulate but 25 times in 50 weeks. Multiply by 100 and in the one case the 100 novels would return a circulation of 10,000, or 80 per cent of the whole, the others of 2,500, or 20 per cent, yet in both in- stances the number of persons using each class has been the same.
During the year 540 new borrowers have qualified, the names of 107 have been erased, leaving the present number of card holders 5700, an increase from 5160 of last year and 4606 of two years ago. In ad- dition to the above 30 teachers in the public schools hold 150 special cards, and 66 High school pupils each a pupil's card, making a total of 5916 accounts.
The library has been open for the withdrawal of books 287 days, and the average circulation has been a fraction above 134, the average for the five previous years having been 126.
After an agitation and discussion of ways and means covering several years, the systematic classi- fication of the books in the library and the prepara- tion of a permanent catalogue is at length well under way. The difficulty was solved by the city council
335
PUBLIC LIBRARY.
of the present year making a special appropriation of $1000 for carrying on the work.
Early in the season the book committee and libra- rian appeared before the city council committee on finance, presented their case, and asked for an appro- priation of $1500. This sum was based on figures presented for a special cataloguer's salary, for print- ing a fiction finding-list and on the cost of the cards and furnishings which would be required, all for one year.
The committee decided to recommend that $1000 be appropriated. By a combination of circumstances that amount proved ample. A cataloguer in every way competent was secured at a less salary than was at first anticipated would be necessary, and the year had nearly one half passed before the work could be started. Consequently the expenditures for this work have so far amounted to but $630.35, leaving unexpended at the close of the year about $350. To carry the work through next year will re- quire $1050, or $700 over and above what the city signified its willingness to appropriate for one year. This will provide one full year's salary for the cata- loguer, for a second cabinet for the card catalogue, the last which will be needed, for printing the fiction catalogue, and leave a small margin for minor con- tingencies.
.
336
ANNUAL REPORTS.
As already stated the work of classifying and cata- loguing began on May 1, 1896. By Sept. I, all the works of fiction in the library, as well as books deal- ing especially with New England history and gene- alogy, had been collected, classified, labelled and ar- ranged in position, and the cards written and ready for the public.
In the fiction class, there are 2638 works in 3429 volumes, and in New England history 654 works in 1,042 volumes. This represents over 14 per cent of the entire library, accomplished in less than four months, while other work was done meanwhile which will not have to be taken up again.
To immediately bring these subjects into use neces- sitated handling every book in the library in order to separate them from the lot. If another subject was taken up in that way, natural science for instance, all the books in the library not already classified would have to be gone over again, and so on as each class was arranged, until all were eliminated. Having provided for those classes most frequently called for it was deemed best to proceed on different lines, and since September the work has been going on in a manner which, while it does not seem to give such rapid results is really more expeditious. The vol- umes are now being first classified, the assigned num-

ber being written on the book-plate and shelf list slips written and arranged alphabetically. So far 7033 volumes, in addition to those enumerated above, have been classified. Three months is the estimated time required for completing this branch of the work, with the exceptions to be noted.
To catalogue these books, write the various cards and arrange them as well as to arrange the books as fast as the classes are completed will take, it is estimated 14 months additional time.
The exceptions noted above relate to government publications. The publications of the government are so multifarious that not many years will have elap- sed before a collection of these alone will constitute a mammoth library. They are in the main bulky and demand much shelf space, and as the most of them in a library of this sort are seldom or never consulted, they become so much useless lumber in the course of time.
Of course some of these books are of practical service and are extremely valuable. Such, it would be well to separate from the rest, and give their proper classification. What disposition to make of the others, in short where to draw the line might be made a subject of special consideration. As in each county the government selects one library as a spe-
43
338
ANNUAL REPORTS.
cial depository where all its publications are put, it never would be difficult to obtain the use of any par- ticular volume that might be called for.
The figures of circulation as given in another part of this report only partially tell of the service the library is affording the public. Of the number of books consulted in the building it is not possible to give the figures. The department of New England history and genealogy especially is in constant use. Of course dictionaries and cyclopedias are in great demand, to say nothing of miscellaneous volumes of all kinds. The work of the library would be broad- ened if some method could obtain whereby the pub- lic might have free access to these classes of books, and in that connection I renew my recommendation of a year ago.

APPENDIX B .- PEABODY FUND.
Nearly thirty years ago, Mr. George Peabody wishing, as he expressed himself, to mark his memory of the kindness shown to him in early youth while in Newburyport, and of the pleasant relations which have ever since existed with some of its citizens and himself, after inquiry as to what would be most beneficial decided to give $15,000 to increase the scope and usefulness of the Public Library.
I had the honor of receiving the money and being appointed the treasurer of the fund and have ever since acted in that ca- pacity and as one of the trustees, and it is sad to accord that all who acted with me in that capacity have exchanged worlds,- Caleb Cushing, Henry C. Perkins, Eben F. Stone and Joshua Hale.
The only absolute condition attached to the generous gift of Mr. Peabody was, that an annual report of the condition of the fund and the amount of income derived therefrom should be prepared and published. In accordance, therefore, with Mr. Peabody's request, I hereby give notice, that the original sum of $15,000 was forthwith deposited in the Institution for Savings, where it has ever since remained, the principal to be withdrawn only upon the signature of a majority of the board of trustees of the fund. The income the past year has been six hundred dollars ; 196 volumes have been added during the year, and in all 7954 previously.
EDW. S. MOSELEY, Treasurer. -
The condition of the fund, both the receipts and expenditures, on account, has been duly audited and certified to as correct of the fund.

APPENDIX C .- BUILDING FUND.
The building fund, being the excess remaining unexpended after the present library building was purchased and provided with the necessary conveniences to render it serviceable, amount- ing to nearly $5,000, was immediately deposited in the Institu- tion for Savings, where it has ever since remained, the princi- pal only subject to withdrawal upon the order of all the mem- bers of the board of trustees.
It will be remembered that this sum arises from the excess over and above the amount subscribed by those interested in the city after the expenditure for the object above named, since which $4,333.13 has been drawn on account of various repairs and other needed expenses, thereby saving so much to the city treasury, notwithstanding which at the present time the whole amount to the credit of the fund in the Institution for Savings consists of $6,131.00.
The accounts of receipts and expenditures have been yearly audited, and their correctness certified to on file.

APPENDIX D .- W. O. MOSELEY FUND.
A new fund for the purchase of books has been made availa- ble through the generosity of the late Wm. O. Moseley, whose executors early in 1895 paid into the city treasury the sum of $10,000, for the benefit of the public library. The fund, which began declaring interest one year ago, will in the future yield $200 semi-annually. There have been purchased under its provisions during the year past 221 volumes, at a cost of $345.21 and the November semi-annual interest $200 is still available.
