REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 
The past year has been one of remarkable development for the Library. By 
the generosity of the Rev. S. A. Thompson Yates we have been able to acquire, 
from their commencement, the following valuable periodicals : — ■ 
Archiv f. Pathologische Anatomie (Virchow's Archiv) 
Archiv f. Hygiene 
Archiv f. d. gesammte Physiologie (Pfliiger's Archiv) 
Archives de Pathologie et Physiologie (Brown- Sequard's Archives) 
Archiv f. exper. Pathologie, etc. (Schmiedeberg's Archiv) 
Beitrage z. Patholog. Anat. (Ziegler's Beitrage) 
Centralblatt f. Bakteriologie. Pts. I and II 
Centralblatt f. allg. Pathologie 
Centralblatt f. Physiologie 
Zeitschrift f. Hygiene, etc. 
Zeitschrift f. Physiologische Chemie (Hoppe-Seyler) 
together with several others noted below. 
Moreover, by an arrangement with the Library Committee it was agreed to 
transfer certain periodicals from the Tate Library to the Departmental Library, on the 
condition that the previous numbers of those which were not complete should be 
purchased by the Department. In this way the Departmental Library has become 
fairly comprehensive in the literature of Bacteriology, Pathology, Physiology, Hygiene, 
and Neurology. There are still some lamentable gaps, but at present there are no 
funds by which they may be filled. 
The number of exchanges has increased ; to several editors of old standing 
periodicals we owe thanks for their generous readiness to exchange.
