A title list of fiction, not including juveniles, is now ready for distribution. In the back part of the book will be found blank leaves. As new books are added to the Library they will be published. If the patrons of the Library will save the lists and insert them in the book, they will always have an up-to-date list. If this Finding List of Fiction proves successful it is the inten- tion of the Trustees to publish other finding lists, until every department is covered.
