FOREWORD 

The Compiler, through his long association with the American Library Directory 
(more than fifteen years), has come to look upon the book as representing not alone 
a lis-t of public, college, special and other libraries, but a kind of combined annual report 
of the American library world. He takes his cue from the written and spoken obscrva- 
jlinns of librarians themselves. It is therefore a pleasure ito note that this 1945 edition 
is again considerably -expanded over fifty pages despite the dropping of two fea- 
tures. Not only has the total number of libraries in-creasec] (12,140 as against ll,/64 in 
the 1942 issue), but the ^statistical data has been materially strengthened by addition of 
salary figures for libraries of all categories, if obtainable, and thei restoration of statis- 
tics for smaller libraries which were not given in the last edition. 

Tt is confidently expected that the two features dropped from this edition will be 
restored in the next: the index to memorial names and the noites about microfilming 
facilities. Both are 1 more or less casualties of the war, and both will appear with new 
vigor when peace comes. In the meantime, it was felt that so little change could be 
recorded that the space, particularly of die memorial names index, might be used to 
better advantage. 

As in previous editions, information appears in the following categories: (1) Li- 
braries in the United States, (2) Libraries in the United States Territories and Depend- 
encies, (3) Libraries in Canada and Newfoundland, (4) Library Organizations, (5) Li- 
brary Schools, (6) State and Provincial Extension Agencies, and (7) Index to> Special 
Collections, Special Subjects, and Special Libraries. As the totals of the categories of 
libraries have not been previously given, the following will be of interest. Listed are 
S.298 public libraries, 1,886 college and junior college libraries, 427 federal and state 
libraries of all kinds, 324 hospital -and institutional libraries, and 1,205 special -libraries 
(including medicine and law). iMirther notes of each category follow: 

(1) Libraries in the United States. This section includes in alphabetical order, first 
by state -and thereunder by city, public libraries, educational and professional libraries, 
federal and state libraries, and institutional libraries, Statistics for the most part have 
come directly from the libraries ithcinsulvcs, usually representing the hist fiscal or 
calendar year. Through the excellent assistance of the various State Library Commis- 
sions and State Libraries, and sonic state organizations, information about smaller pub- 
lic libraries has been revised, and the names of new libraries have been added. The 
list of public libraries, as far as the compiler knows, is virtually complete in this edition. 

Each edition of the Directory of course brings its own problems which require 
solution. In the lasit, the question of including branches was answered, so far as the 
editor knows, satisfactorily, though the growing community importance of city 
branches makes him suspect that it will again appear. Some colleges, particularly of 
junior grade, were reported closed because of the war; they are listed with the nota- 
tion if there was no indication of abandonment. Only one -category of special library 
has been shortened: law. Unless there w-as evidence that it was a law library, not just 
a collection of law books, it was dropped. 

(2) Libraries in the United States Territories and Dependencies, New informa- 
tion has been virtually impossible to obtain from some of this group, Only Hawaiian 
and Alaskan libraries are represented with new information, The Philippines have 
been dropped, not only because 'the libraries Ivavc presumably been destroyed but be- 
cause the Islands will doubtless soon have their independence. 

(3) Libraries of Canada and Newfoundland, This section has increased, somewhat. 
Information about those libraries which did not respond has been rtakcn from the 
S*mrv of Libraries in Canada, 1940-42, issued by the Dominion Bureau of -Statistics, 
L943. " 

(4) Library Organizations. This section includes state, provincial, and regional 
library associations and clubs arranged in alphabetical order. 

(5) Library Schools. A list of library schools of the United States and Canada is 
arranged by the short name by which each is best known. Starred entries indicate 
schools accredited by the A. L. A, Board of Education for I-ibrarianship. 

(6) State and Provincial Extension Agencies* T.his is merely a list of agencies. 
Statistical information about book collections, income, personnel, etc., appears in 'the 
main list of libraries. 

(7) Index to Special Collections, Special Subjects, and Special Libraries. 'Phis fea- 
ture remains much the same varying only in such additions and subtractions as the 
reports indicated. Special Subjects, i.e., those stressed in the general collections of a 
library, may or may not have relation to the Special Collections, and may be equally 
important to research. And to include either of these without also including Special

together, hut libraries follow an italic libs. 

While tjier.t iv nothing mystical about a special collection, the universal character 
i/ntion of one is. still for the future. As indicated, there has been little basic change in 
holdings as fcponted in the last several issues of the Directory, other than addition-*. 
This is in I cresting, for it shows that librarians, who must in the final analy<i^ imlioa*e 
what / hey consider special in their libraries, have more or less settled the matter TO 
their satisfaction. The Directory has, of course, had its share in thU cry.^taKtzaiinn. 

llnl if a collection cannot be easily defined in a sentence, the principle? of is ma:n- 
tenancc can he stated. Willis H. Kerr, director of Hbrarie>. of P.aremonl Colleges, did 
this so admirably in the Library Jintrnal of March 1, 1045, that the compiler reprnts 
his observaitions here: 

(1) Support a sj>ecial collection with all the available biblii >grnjihie> m !''! -nb 
Jed. Obtain them all as published, check them carefully, and try to get the 'ttm* !i-trd 

(2^ A special collection should develop all important periodical material <m :*'

(3) Don't build a .special collection entirely or too much around the int^n.--; <i* 
oirc person, one professor or one fn"en<I. People pass; courts of study chance; inter 
csls change. The library goes on and on and has a responsibility in th<* pa^t, a thifv 
to the future. 

(4) Collect material on the hixftwy of. the special ^ubject concerned, as uell a^ 
I he Mibjcct matter itself. This liclps ti< k the past intf> the future: ^or.iftiii" 1 * ; : ?< !r
