X. ABSTRACT OF PROCEEDINGS. 
two have not resumed publication owing to high cost of 
material. 
The donations to the library have been as follows :—55- 
volumes, 1694 parts, 56 reports, 1 catalogue and 3 calendars. 
The alterations in connection with the building, now in 
progress, will necessitate the re-arranging of the whole 
of the contents of the library, and it is hoped that the 
additional shelf space intended to be made available will 
be sufficient to meet the needs of the library for some 
years to come.
