Abstract
MANY technologists other than those directly interested in rubber manufacture will have read with feelings of profound misgiving the leading article in NATURE of February 11. The closing down of the Rubber Research Laboratory at Croydon and the dispersal of its fine library—one of the most complete special technical collections in Europe—would be nothing short of a catastrophe. For this is no moribund institution, but an active and extremely useful organisation discharging efficiently those duties and fulfilling those aims for which the industrial research associations were called into being.
