Synopsis
Excerpt from The College and University Library
The foregoing formal statements give no full sense of the spirit and ways in which the modern college library serves its students - ways unknown a generation ago. Free and full access to the books is the keynote and chiefest of these services. Enticing lists of vacation reading are common, while increasingly liberal borrowing privileges give to students all the advantages and range of a public library. And all these services are in addition to the library's work in connection with the regular courses of instruction.
