The Junior Class of the New York Public Library made its 
annual visit on May 29th. 
The library was represented at the New York Library Club, 
the Conference of Eastern College Librarians, the New York 
Regional Group of Cataloguers and the Special Library Associ- 
ation. The librarian also visited, among others, the libraries 
of the L’Institut National d’Agronomique, and that of the 
Jardin des Plantes while in Paris. It is due to one of these 
visits that our duplicate volumes of Soil Science were donated 
to the library of L’Institut National d’Agronomique. 
There are now approximately 1,355 volumes in the over- 
flow collection, shelved in the lower stackroom. 
For list of donors and gifts, see Appendix I.
