LIBRARY 
The prime requirement of the library is service from and through 
books. It is well known that what has once been published is often 
forgotten and the rediscovery in the library may be a more difficult 
process than the first discovery. All the modern refinements of cata- 
loging and the invention of the fabulous fact-finding push-button ma- 
chines are directed toward making rediscovery easy, but in the last 
analysis the ultimate dependence is still upon human brains and skills. 
The expanding program of work and the many new projects being 
initiated find some of the subjects inadequately covered by the litera- 
ture in the Gallery library. Other libraries owning the required ma- 
terial have been most generous in furnishing it through interlibrary 
loan.
