Butterflies of New England.

The parts of volumes include 88 volumes completed. Among 
these may be mentioned complete sets of the Illustrierte wochen- 
schrift fur entomologie, Illustrierte zeitschrift fur entomologie, and 
Allgemeine zeitschrift fur entomologie; and the Entomologist’s 
record and journal of variation (except one or two numbers); also 
The Naturalist (London) from 1884 to date; and 17 volumes of 
The Entomologist, of London. 
The increase of the library has made necessary the installation of 
a new bookcase in the basement room, in order to allow for the 
spreading out of the journals in the front library. 
Three new exchanges have been added during the year : Biolo- 
gisches anstalt auf Helgoland, Kiel; Biological society of Wash¬ 
ington; Journal of geography. Two others are pending, and one 
has ceased. The exchanges now number 454. 
During the year, 839 volumes and 2322 pamphlets have been 
bound; of these, the pamphlets and 131 volumes are a part of, the 
S. H. Scudder library. 
Eight hundred and fifty-nine books have been borrowed by 107 
persons; 421 books have been borrowed for use in the building. 
The library has been consulted about 265 times. 
The library contains, May 1, 1904, 30,497 volumes, 1606 current 
or otherwise incomplete volumes, and 23,234 pamphlets.
