LIBRARY 



Accessions during the fiscal year totaled 321. There has been a 

 sharp decrease in all classes of accessions, owing to reduced funds in 

 the case of purchases and to war conditions in the case of gifts and 

 exchanges. 



The Library of Congress cards for nonserial matter on hand at the 

 beginning of the fiscal year, amounting to several thousand, have 

 been prepared and filed. Cards for foreign periodicals and society 

 transactions have been prepared and filed, including shelf -list cards. 

 A record of holdings appears on each of these shelf -list entries and 

 some are now in their permanent form. 



Several thousand pamphlets, including a number of valuable ones 

 pertaining to the Indian Territory and the Five Civilized Tribes, 

 were reclassified and reshelved. 



The library has been much in use as a source of material for the 

 Ethnogeographic Board and the war agencies.
