THE LIBRARY Librarian: L. BURGESS, Esq. Library Monitors: W. J. Burdass, D. G. Hilton, E. Robinson, M. W. Senior, S. H. Storey. The main addition to the Library this term has been not one of literature but that of a new coat of paint. It was administered during the holidays after the entire collection of nearly four thousand books had been removed. This arduous task was accomplished only by considerable toil on the part of the Library Monitors, but the sight of the Library, resplendent in its newly acquired coat of blue, completely justified their labours, and dispelled any doubts as to whether the upheaval had been worthwhile. The books have all been replaced in their correct positions, and the Library is running as smoothly as ever. An important innovation this term has been the acquisition for the Library of a daily copy of "The Times". It is hoped that many who would otherwise never have the opportunity of reading the greatest of our national newspapers will take advantage of its provision. A large number of reference books have been returned after a long absence with the binders, and are once again available to the School. In addition, for the benefit of the ever-increasing numbers that are using the Library, the following range of new books (including a large French section) have been added :— Boswell's London Journal (1761-3)—ed. F. A. Pottle. Prefaces to Shakespeare—H. Granville-Barker. 4th Leaders from "The Times". Teach yourself History of English Literature. Vols. I-VI—ed. P. Westland. The Peoples of Europe—Fleure. The British Overseas—C. E. Carrington. Habitat, Economy and Society—C. D. Forde. Principles of Economic Geography—R. N. Rudmose Brown. Climatology—W. G. Kendrew. North America—Jones and Bryan. South America—E. W. Stranahan. Africa—W. Fitzgerald. France—P. Maillaud. France—E. E. Evans. L'Avare--Moliere. Les Femmes Savantes—Moliere. Le Malade Imaginaii
