REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES OF THE TUFTS LIBRARY.
The twenty-second annual report of the Board of Trustees of the Tufts Library is respectfully submitted to the town of Wey- mouth, as follows :-
During the year 1900, the library was open for the delivery of books on 302 days; the whole number of bound volumes loaned for use outside of the library building was 55,795, making a daily average of 185 volumes, and a monthly average of 4,649 volumes. The largest number of books loaned in one day was 380, on March 21, and the smallest number loaned in any day was 26, on August 26. March, as usual, was the busiest month, with the issue of 5903 books.
The circulation through the several agencies was as follows :-
Precinct 1, Bartlett's store 5,296 ·
Precinct 1, Holden and Sladen's store ·
·
3,014
Precincts 2 and 6, Salisbury's store 9,178 ·
Precincts 2 and 6, Bates and Humphrey's store ·
2,502
Precinct 4, Pratt's store 1,233 .
. Precinct 4, Nash's store 2,693
Precinct 5, Fogg Memorial Library 1,289 ·
The High School 340
25,545
224
CLASSIFICATION OF CIRCULATION.
Arts, .029 ; Biography, .017; Fiction, including Juvenile Fic- tion, .693; History, .036; Literature, .031; Natural Science, .026; Poetry, .014 ; Social Science, .011 ; Religion and Theology, .004; Travels, .036; Periodicals, .105.
Although the Fiction List was published during the year, the per cent of Fiction loaned was not increased.
ACCESSIONS.
The number of accessions to date is 20,651; 538 volumes having been added during the year. Sixty-eight volumes were gifts, and 47 volumes were magazines taken from the Reading Room, and bound. The single numbers of the periodicals have also been circulated as books, being loaned only seven days, when first issued. Two hundred and twenty-seven popular books, mostly fiction, too badly worn for circulation, have been replaced. Requests for the purchase of books have been received from many classes of borrowers, but a large majority of these requests were for works of the fiction class. With the unusually limited sum available this year, for the purchase of books, the trustees have been compelled to defer compliance with many of these requests which they would have been glad to grant promptly, had their means permitted. But in this connection, perhaps, the trustees may be pardoned for repeating the expression of their opinion that a municipal public library should be so conducted as to furnish, to the extent of its means, wholesome reading to all classes of those citizens who wish to avail themselves of its privi- leges, giving to the smallest class, the readers of "Theology," at least an equal chance with the largest class, the readers of "Fiction," in proportion to the numbers represented by the respective classes. The preparation and publication of " Class List No. 1, English Fiction" embracing accessions from 1879 to 1900, have been done in a very satisfactory manner, and at the minimum of cost, the copy having been prepared by the librari- ans, and the printing executed by the Gazette press, at a modest price. The trustees deem that the thanks of the citizens generally, as well as of themselves, are due to both parties. It was neces- sary, however, to furnish assistance in the delivery of books to
225
a considerably greater extent than would have otherwise been re- quired, which expense lessened the means available for the pur- chase of books; but it is hoped the patrons of the library will decide that this deprivation of the full number of usual accessions is compensated by the possession of this "Class List." In the work of rearranging and renumbering the books made necessary by the new "List," the Librarian desires gratefully to acknowl- edge the valuable assistance, generously given, for many hours, by Miss Alice B. Blanchard and Mr. Francis M. Loud.
During the coming year the trustees hope to issue another "Class List" to include books of Biography, History and Travel.
Lists of current accessions have been printed as in former years in the Gazette, but the Annual Bulletin was omitted at the close of the year. The titles of all books, outside of fiction, added to the library during 1900 and 1901 must be found in the lists pub- lished in the local paper or in the card catalogue, until the new bulletin is issued.
Some of the more valuable books added to the library during 1900 are : Life and Letters of Charles Bulfinch (917.6) ; Iles's Flame, Electricity and the Camera (723.151) ; Keeler's Our Native Trees and How to Identify Them (735.114) ; Ralph's Dixie, or Southern Scenes and Sketches (224.179) ; Scidmore's China, the Long-lived Empire (235.97) ; Life of Isaac Ingalls Stevens (917.34) ; Engel's Introduction to the Study of National Music (721.204) ; Hastings's Dictionary of the Bible (Ref.), a most valuable work; Bigelow's White Man's Africa (233.83) ; Mass. Soldiers and Sailors of the Revolutionary War, vol. 6 (Ref.) ; Fitzgerald's Stories of Famous Songs (721.257) ; Royce's Conception of Immortality (834.41) ; Livermore's Story of my Life (217.123) ; Bryce's Briton and Boer, Both Sides of the South African Question (635.55) ; Storey's Charles Sumner (914.28) ; Devereux's Side Lights on South Africa (233.79) ; Willard and Livermore's Woman of the Century (Ref.) ; Mc- Master's History of the People of the United States, vol. 5 of (614.32) ; Who's Who (Ref.) ; Who's Who in America (Ref. ) ; Coulter's Plant Structure (735.130) ; Cross's Development of the English Novel (133.44) ; Johnson's Our Familiar Songs and Those Who Made Them (721.248) ; McCarthy's Story of Glad- stone's Life (916.8) ; Lounsbury's Guide to the Trees (735.109)
226
Garrett's Pilgrim Shore (224.172) ; Hare's Life and Letters of Frances Baroness Bunsen (214.70) ; Smith's Village Life in China (235.95 ; Stedman's American Anthology, 1787-1899 (Selections of Poetry ) (817.48) ; Keltie's Statesman's Year Book, 1900 (Ref.) ; Fitchett's How England Saved Europe, the Story of the Great War, 1793-1815 (633.34) ; Doubleday's Nature's Garden (737.72) ; Brooks's Century Book of American Colonies (617.88) ; Clark's Outlines of Civics (315.107) ; Earle's Stage- coach and Tavern Days (614.132) ; Appleton's Annual Cyclo- pædia, 1900 (Ref.) ; Mill's International Geography (737.106) ; Maclay's History of American Privateers (617.59) ; Wheeler's Woodworking for Beginners (724.124) ; Fisher's Transvaal and the Boers (635.56) ; Sloane's Liquid Air (732.89) ; Lodge's War with Spain (616.87).
EXAMINATION OF THE BOOKS.
The annual examination of books was made as usual and ten volumes, mostly worn volumes of fiction, are still unaccounted for. One hundred and sixty-nine books, badly worn and soiled, that could not easily be replaced have been withdrawn from circu- lation, and many others need constant mending to make them acceptable.
No complete record has been kept of the number of books mended at the library, but it may safely be estimated as more than 6000 volumes.
REGISTRATION.
The number of borrowers to date is 3,802, an increase of 341 during the year. 136 were given special non-fiction cards, which increased the number of cards issued during the year to 477.
WORK WITH THE SCHOOLS.
Four thousand three hundred and fifteen volumes have been loaned on seventy-two Teachers' Special cards. The invitation to bring pupils to the library is again given with the hope that many teachers will accept. In order to derive the greatest benefit from a library it is essential to know how to use the indexes, card catalogue, tables of contents of books, etc.
227
This knowledge should be gained early in life and can readily be taught by the teacher at the library. It is again earnestly urged that the teachers, besides making use of their special cards, place on the blackboard lists of books, suitable for the pupils to borrow on their own cards ; for in this way they can prevent the reading of much that is worthless, and can help in the forming of a taste for the reading of good books, which should be one of the objects of our common school education.
READING AND REFERENCE ROOM.
The work of aiding students has perceptibly increased during the year ; although as no account of the help furnished or books loaned has been kept, nothing in the way of statistics can be furnished. No work in the library is more important than that of assisting in the Reference Room, but it takes time that cannot easily be re- corded. In the larger libraries this is a special department with an attendant in charge, but in the smaller libraries everything must be done by the librarian and assistant.
To meet the demands of members of the study clubs and of students, additions should be made to this department.
The library has continued to receive the Musician from Mr. Gutterson, and received L'Echo de la Semaine from Miss Loud, until its publication was discontinued. The Rev. J. B. Holland has furnished the Electrical World, and Mrs. T. H. Tyndale, Music. These valuable periodicals, for which the trustees thank the donors, have been placed on the reading tables.
ART EXHIBITIONS.
Five exhibitions of photographs have been held in the Reading Room during the past year.
The photographs are the property of the Library Art Club, a society formed of eighty libraries and educational societies. This society purchases each year a number of sets of photographs which are chosen by experts, are carefully arranged, and often have val- uable information culled from best sources pasted on the mounts. They are worthy of real study, besides being entertaining as pic- tures. Books on the subject of each exhibition are placed free of access, so that added information may be obtained by those that desire.
228
The first exhibition, the delicately colored photographs of Japan, was much appreciated. The second, a hundred pictures of the Alps, although beautifully representing that wonderful snow scen- ery did not prove so attractive.
The third exhibition illustrating Amsterdam and North Holland was of special interest as the pictures were chosen by Miss Pierce and Miss Sheppard, each of whom gave an interesting talk describ- ing her impressions of these countries, paying particular attention to the description of the paintings that the photographs reproduced. The fourth exhibition was of the grand, rugged scenery of New- foundland and was well worth seeing. The last, held in Decem- ber, was more than usually pleasing ; the representations of the scenery, art and architecture of Sicily made a fine exhibition.
GIFTS.
Just prior to sending our report for the year 1899 to the prin- ter, notice was received of the intention of Mr. Amnos W. Stetson of Braintree to give to the town of Weymouth the sum of twenty five hundred dollars in trust, for the benefit of the Tufts Library, said town to pay over, semi-annually, to its trustees, for the purchase of books, the interest accruing thereon, and brief men- tion of this proposed benevolence was made in that report. At the March meeting of the town a formal offer of this gift was made to, and gratefully accepted by the town, and, at the request of the donor, this fund is to be known as "The Susannah Hunt Stetson Memorial Fund," in honor of that most estimable lady, who was a native of Weymouth, and his mother.
The library has also received from the Woman's Relief Corps of Weymouth the gift of a picture illustrating the United States Flag-its history and origin.
Appended to this report is a list of the donors of books and pamphlets, which gifts are acknowledged with thanks.
