' Many have not been received regularly since the war. 



In addition to the 2,757 current periodicals appearing not less than 

 four tLmes a year, the library received 4,842 serials of less frequent 

 issue, such as annual reports, proceedings, and transactions published 

 by institutions and societies, an increase of 1,2S8 as compared with 

 the previous year. This increase is due largely to the fact that many 

 more exchanges were received during the year from foreign countries. 



There is a continued demand for a printed title and subject list of 

 the periodicals currently received by the library. Such a list was 

 pul)lished in 1010 and there has been no revision. Since that date 

 the number of periodicals received by the library has increased by 

 1,182. It it hoped that a new edition may be published during the 

 coming year. There is also a demand for a new edition of the complete 

 catalogue of periodicals and serials contained in the library, the first 

 edition of which was published 20 years ago, in 1901, as Bulletin 37. 

 The library has the data for a new edition, but funds for its printing 

 haA'e not been available. 



DUPLICATES. 



While the library received as many duplicates during the year as in 

 previous years, it was not possible, on account of lack of assistance, 

 to devote much time to the work of listing and disposing of them, but 

 about 15 mail bags of pu})lications selected by the libraries of the 

 State agricultural colleges and experiment stations have been dis- 

 tributed during the year. These duplicates are for the most part 

 periodicals, official publications, and publications of societies and
