HON. LIBRARIAN’S REPORT. 
The rebuilding of the Public Library and Museum 
necessitated the closing of the Society’s Library during the Spring 
of 1902, as was recorded in last year’s Report. The Reference 
Library was not completed until February, 1903; and most of 
the Society’s cases were brought there, and an extra one was 
made, the whole eastern wall of the room being given up to them. 
Other cases are deposited downstairs. It was hoped and believed 
the new arrangement would be completed, a new catalogue would 
be in all the Members’ hands, and duplicates valued for sale, 
before this Annual Meeting; but just after the Hon Librarian 
began the work, his father, the late Alderman Davey, fell ill, and 
it has not yet been possible to continue the new arrangement and 
cataloguing. There is, however, nothing to prevent the completion 
before the next Session of the Society begins; and it is expected 
that the new position of the cases in the Reference Library, 
visible to the public, will cause a much more frequent consultation 
of the volumes than has previously been the case. 
H. DAVEY, 
Fon. Librarian.
