Abstract
AN important chapter in the McColvin report on the Public Library System of Great Britain dealing with co-operation, specialization and national projects emphasized the urgent need for a thorough and realistic survey of the whole field of special and non-public libraries. Such a survey, Mr. McColvin urged, would disclose a wealth of material which is not fully recognized and utilized, and would stimulate co-operation both between non-public libraries themselves and between non-public and public libraries. It is a necessary preliminary to a sound organization and development of the specialized resources of the nation.
