Vols. for 1898/99- include the report of the librarian.

The field of librarianship has undergone traumatic shifts (mostly downward) due to the global financial meltdown that began in 2008. This title addresses the ripple effects of the economic recession from the point of view of librarianship, the need for advocacy, and the necessity to tout the value that libraries bring to their communities.

Excerpt from Twenty-Ninth Annual Report of the Board of Trustees and Twenty-Eighth Annual Report of the Librarian of the Public Library of the District of Columbia: For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 1926 The soiled condition of the cards in the public catalogue presents a never-ending problem. All of the most unsightly sections have been rewritten and guide cards renewed; this has helped much to improve the general appearance of the catalogue. (from the report of Julia H. Laskey, chief of the catalogue department.) About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
