THE JOYS OF LIBRARIANSHIP 

BY ARTHUR E. BOSTWICK 

Librarian of the St. Louis Public Library 



An Address delivered before The New York Public Library Staff Association 
November 26, 1917 



JOY is a by-product. It is futile to go in search of it. When a machine runs 
smoothly, when every cog and lever is properly adjusted and there is 
a minimum of friction and lost motion, its work is done quietly. There is no 
creaking, no slamming and banging, and if the machine were sentient, it would 
be joyous. Its joy is a symptom, an indication that it is doing its work 
well and that it is in harmony with all about it. This condition, in a conscious 
being like ourselves, is accompanied in consciousness by what we call pleasure, 
- an indication that we are fitting into the scheme of things and are doing 
well something that we are capable of doing and' that needs to be done. The 
worker who thus succeeds in fitting himself and his activity into the system of 
the universe experiences pleasure, joy; and it is the only way in which he 
can obtain it. When we get pleasure from recreation, it is because recreation 
is a legitimate and necessary part of our activities. Led by instinct, we seek 
it, and our joy is its result. But if we are misled and seek the joy when we 
no longer need the recreation, our goal recedes before us. This is how Robbie 

Burns puts it: 

"But pleasures are like poppies spread 
You seize the flovv'r, its bloom is shed; 
Or like the snow falls in the river 
A moment white, then melts for ever; 
Or like the borealis race, 
That flit ere you can point their place; 
Or like the rainbow's lovely form 
Evanishing amid the storm."

4 THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY 

This is not a treatise on psychology, but we must realize that if librarian- 
ship, or anything else, has joys, they are to.be found in the perfect adaptation 
of the worker to the work and that this adaptation is what we must seek, 
letting the joy come as a by-product, as it surely will. 

I desire to exclude at the outset the joy that consists in the simple accumu- 
lation of as large a sum of money as possible. Creature comforts are neces- 
sary and the joy that attends their acquisition is a legitimate by-product, but 
we should not use it as a measure of the relative desirability of occupations. 
We Americans have been derided as dollar-chasers. It must be said for us 
that if \ve do chase the dollar occasionally our zest for it seems to end when 
we have caught it. We part with it easily and generally to good purpose. But 
even in the matter of chasing, I think we have been misjudged. Our love for 
the dollar arises often from a mistaken idea that the ability to get it is a general 
measure of capacity. This is surely not so. The money-making instinct is 
a useful one, not to be despised, but it is only one of many kinds of capacity 
for human service. A born money-getter would make just as great a mistake 
to go into library work as a born librarian would to undertake the pursuit 
of the dollar. 

What are the elements in librarianship favoring adaptability? First it 
deals with books, which are the records of life and its products, and with 
making these records available to men, who are life itself. Can you think 
of any subject matter more likely to contain within itself something to cor- 
respond with the needs and abilities of a particular person ? It is like the flutter 
of sounds at the lip of an organ pipe which has the ability to excite resonance 
in a column of air of any length and volume, producing a note of any pitch. 
In the mass of flue-pipes contained in a great modern organ, the primary noise 
produced by the air at the lip of each is precisely the same, and yet from each 
the corresponding pipe picks out the vibrations of the proper frequency and 
speaks out with its own note. So every worker, no matter whether his desires 
and capabilities are pitched high or low, may find in the library something 
to which he may respond. For in the first place he must be interested in some 
subject, and that subject is of course represented in the library. It may be a 
broad one, such as history, or science, or literature; it may be narrow, like 
coins or gymnastics or the building of bird houses. Work in a library enables 
him to give it scope, to call the attention of others to it, and to get in touch with 
those who also love it. I know of nothing better for a library than to count 
among its workers specialists \vho are interested in expanding and improv- 
ing parts of its collection in which they take a personal interest, and I know 
of nothing better for the members of a library staff than to cultivate such 



THE JOYS OF LIBRARIANSHIP 5 

interests and give them scope. And apart from the stored records them- 
selves, the books, the methods of making them available and of arousing 
interest in them have now become so manifold that they respond to almost 
every capability. He or she who has a knack for publicity work, or for welfare 
work, for seeking out-of-the-way information, for housekeeping on a large 
scale, for the organization of community centres, for the guidance of children, 
for the Americanization of foreigners, for any one of a thousand forms of 
activity once unrecognized by the library, may now find in that institution a 
ready and proper outlet for his enthusiasm. If there is anywhere another single 
institution in which so many persons, no matter what their interests and pro- 
clivities, would be apt to find work adapted to them, I do not know its name. 

A second element in library work favoring adaptability is that it has 
become progressive. Man is a growing organism, physically and mentally; 
he should connect himself with some growing form of activity or service. It 
seems to me that many of our so-called activities it would be invidious to 
name them are in a stationary stage. To engage in them means to master 
certain fixed principles and to act according to rules and formulae that admit 
of no variation. Their only outlook is backward. Perhaps we should be 
wrong to conclude that this static stage is the final one in any case. It may 
inhere not in the activity itself, but in the habits of those who control it. There 
may one day be sudden and brilliant emergence. Heaven knows that at a not 
far distant date there was no occupation that better deserved to be ranked 
among the stationary and stagnating ones than librarianship. Its triumphant 
emergence has been like the sudden development of the migratory instinct in 
some long quiescent tribe, which at once sets forth, conquering and to con- 
quer. We may come one day to a sudden stop, but at present, wherever we 
may be headed, we are certainly on our way; and I submit that a young man 
or a young woman in whose veins the pulses of adventure beat, will find more 
congenial occupation in the library, which is continually exploring and an- 
nexing new territory, than in some institution that has grown to its full capacity 
and is fat and sleepy. 

It should not be necessary for me to remind the staff of The New York- 
Public Library of its still recent past; nor should I venture to do so, were it 
not that sudden growth means the acquisition of new material and that to new- 
comers the excitements of the present often screen the events of the past, no 
matter how interesting or instructive. 

Be that as it may, there are not a few here present, who will agree with 
me that we are still vigorous, not to say young, who remember when New 
York was a veritable backwater in the library world. She had a fine collection 



6 THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY 

of reference books in the Astor Library, too little used; she had a wonderful 
book museum in the Lenox, untrod by more than the select few; she had her 
college and university libraries; but the modern popular library movement was 
represented only by half a dozen small charities, just beginning to be recog- 
nized by the municipality. And all at once this sleeping monster arose and 
shook itself; and then things began to happen. I believe you agree with me 
when I say that looking back, there is not one of us who would exchange the 
privilege of seeing them happen, and helping them to happen, for great riches. 
Did we realize, I wonder, what was going on, and whither it tended? In 
what other city were scores of separately-organized bodies, sometimes sorely 
against their will, brought together and consolidated, welded into an efficient 
whole, thinking and acting no longer for themselves, but for the community? 
In what other city were five millions of dollars ever given at once for library 
expansion ? Where else were ten branch libraries ever opened within the space 
of a single year? What other library, in a few years' time, ever grew from 
a circulation of a half million to eight millions; from a branch system of 
eleven to one of forty-four; from a staff of a hundred to one of a thousand? 
In such rapid expansion it was all we could do to keep up with it; we had 
no time to realize its significance or whither it was tending. But there was 
joy in it, as there always will be joy in rapid motion, physical, mental or insti- 
tutional. We were rushing clown the toboggan slide from whose top we had 
been gazing so long. When I first knew library work in New York, nearly 23 
years ago, the first thing that struck me about it was its almost limitless 
capability for expansion. I used to see in imagination the vast city dotted 
with branch libraries and every one housed in a beautiful and convenient build- 
ing. That this could be in our own day or at any time short of a dim and 
distant future, I never ventured to hope. Now it has all come true, and I 
dare say it has become all very dull and commonplace to most of you. But 
as I stand here I cannot resist the temptation to take a backward flight, only 
a very little one, in Mr. H. G. Wells's Time Machine, that mechanical 
device which strikes me as so very much more successful than his later attempts 
at constructive theology. Only a turn of the lever and we are standing here 
on this very spot, on top of the old stone reservoir, looking around at a very dif- 
ferent New York, which somehow seems more familiar to me than the city of 
1917. Down below us is the old Bond Street Library with the Ottendorfer near 
by not much changed by time, these two and the old Astor, now a thing of 
the past. Over there, within a stone's throw, is Bruce and away to the south- 
west, Jackson Square. Still further to the south, in the Educational Alliance 
and northward in 59th Street are the branches of the Aguilar. That is all. 



THE JOYS OF LIBRARIANSHIP 7 

Turning the lever a little bit forward so that we can go ahead slowly, we can see 
other libraries here and there flash into view, libraries in settlements, in 
industrial institutions, in churches. And then, all at once they come in a rush, 
and the far horizon is dotted with them. The old reservoir crumbles, a fairer 
structure grows in its stead, and here we are in the year 1917 from which we 
started and beyond which we shall hereafter travel slowly at the regulation 
rate of 24 hours a day. 

All these things, which seem to some of us to have happened yesterday, 
are ancient history to many of you. Are they not all long past, and can they 
ever happen again? Not the same things in the same place, of course. But 
many another town awaits the same kind of development, and further things 
may happen even in advanced New York. The drive that has been sending 
the library forward is not yet ended, and it will not end so long as there is 
territory to occupy and fighters ready to go "over the top." The unoccupied 
territory awaits us; do not doubt it. It is our business to see to the availability 
and readiness of the workers. If the work ceases to interest them and they 
migrate to other fields the forward movement will cease, and the unoccupied 
territory will remain in the clutches of ignorance and unproductiveness. 

Note that the progressiveness of the work depends in large degree on 
the spirit of the workers. A gang of strong, active laborers under a lazy fore- 
man will do more work than a lazy gang with an active foreman. A library 
assistant who gives up her work because it is uninteresting and yet does nothing 
to make it interesting is misconceiving her duties and her abilities as a worker. 
There is not one of us, from the beginner up to the chief, who cannot fix on 
some one thing, not so well done as it might be, and bring about a betterment. 
Multiply these individual efforts by a million and you have a forward move- 
ment all along the line. I have heard assistants say, "I don't dare to do it; 
I don't dare even to suggest it; my chief wouldn't like it." Did you ever try? 
I can tell you from the inside that most chiefs like progress and will promote 
those who plan it and carry it out. It can be planned and carried out even 
when they are supine or sceptical. Most of the improvements in children's 
work for instance, have come from those engaged in it; they have not been 
advised or even advocated, by the higher library authorities. I have elsewhere 
expressed the opinion, which I here repeat, that the administration and organi- 
zation of the part of our work that deals with the young is more systematic 
and more efficient than that which deals with adults. If I am right, we have 
assistants to thank, more than chief librarians. 

Believe me, there is plenty of progress ahead of us. Its achievement is 
going to be interesting to those who plan it and take part in it, which means 



8 THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY 

the assistants, now beginning library work, who have the vision to see what 
remains to be done, the initiative to "start something" and the perseverance 
to carry it through. 

Some of our greatest progress remains to be made in intensive work. We 
have moved fastest and furthest hitherto in extension, it seems to me. For 
example, we have done little or nothing along the lines of the ''efficiency" 
movement that has done so much for the industries. Librarians are simply 
not interested in it. Perhaps this is because we are not subject to the goad 
of commercial competition. Extension requires the spirit of the explorer 
of the missionary which we have; improvement on the inside, betterment 
of methods, the economy of effort, requires something else of which we 
evidently possess less. Some day, perhaps, we shall acquire it and then some 
of the greatest joys await our workers those attendant upon success in 
making one blade of grass give place to two. There is a wide field for experi- 
ment here, and it is not limited to the higher grades. In the act of experimenta- 
tion itself is to be found one of our keenest joys. For, as I have said else- 
where, an experiment never fails; it always furnishes information, and that 
is what the experimenter should be after. The man who after repeated trials 
finds that he cannot jump a five-foot fence has discovered one of his limita- 
tions, he has not failed. Experiments often reveal the line of least resistance 
and so point out the way of progress, which opens sometimes in unexpected 
quarters after the way has been found closed in other points, equally unex- 
pected. Our "visitors' nights" in St. Louis, now in their sixth year, were the 
result of a suggestion that I for one looked to bring forth no great results, 
whereas the use of one of our terraces for a summer outdoor reading-room, 
which looked at first like an inspiration, met with no public response and was 
dropped after a few days' trial. Both these experiments were successes. One 
indicated where the road lay; the other where it did not lie. Both, perhaps, were 
of a kind that could be tried only by a chief librarian, or by the head of a depart- 
ment, although one was the result of an assistant's suggestion, and an assistant 
in right relations with a chief need never want for opportunity to try any experi- 
ment, except, of course, those that involve expense that is not worth while. But 
experimentation, on some scale or other and in some direction or other, is open 
to every library worker, even to the paster of labels. It has been somewhat dis- 
couraged by adherence to rule of thumb methods and failure to reward initia- 
tive. To say this is merely to repeat in another form what I have said above, 
that we are still deficient and backward in our intensive development. 

Here, by-the-by, is another joy, and I trust you do not think that I 
expect to exhaust the catalogue in this address. I mean the joy of discovering 



THE JOYS OF LIBRARIANSHIP 9 

and developing ability. I do not mean, of course, the mere ability to do as one 
is told, to follow rules and formulae, I mean the ability to find and follow 
new paths, to make trails. Some trails, of course, may lead nowhere, but 
the making of a dozen of these may be amply justified by what is found at 
the end of the thirteenth. One thing is certain, progress is the reward of the 
trail-maker, never of him who merely walks the beaten path. The discovery 
of these trail-makers among one's assistants is a joy because in every such 
there are potentialities whose extent one may not even predict. A Napoleon 
may come to light at any moment, and we need a library Napoleon badly. 

Possibly I have not dwelt sufficiently on the joys that come from the 
librarian's contact with the public. A classic answer when one asks a candi- 
date for librarianship about his qualifications is: "I'm very fond of books." 
It might be more to the point if he were able to say, "I'm very fond of people." 
Books and readers are the two complementary elements of a working library, 
and of the two the readers are the active part. It is far easier to get a book for 
a reader than to get a reader for a book, but the latter task is the more fruitful 
because a reader gained for one book is gained for a great many more. To 
get a reader for a book meant formerly to induce him to transfer his atten- 
tion from some other book. He was already a reader; otherwise he would 
not be in the library, under the librarian's observation. The crowds at the 
delivery desk and at the reference tables, in fact, are selected crowds. The 
library has automatically sifted out the readers from the non-readers in the 
community and devotes itself, at these two points, to some of the readers. 
I wish I could say to all, that we may some day say it is one of the tasks 
that confronts us. Now, however, there are non-readers in the library and 
the job of getting readers for books includes making readers out of these, 
and also out of their fellows who have not yet come to the library at all. Non- 
readers have come into the library through its recent recognition of the fact 
that literature is wider than books and that its province includes other ideas 
than those recorded on paper. Hence we now welcome the busy business 
man who wants, not to read, but to get information without the trouble of 
reading, if he can. We open our doors to the workman who wants to discuss 
with his fellows the economic ideas that immediately affect him. It is now 
unsafe to conclude that a man is a reader merely because you meet him in a 
library. And the upshot of it all is that the librarian now has the opportunity 
of coming into contact with many more elements in his community than he 
formerly could meet. And meeting them in his library, he gets acquainted with 
them and goes out to meet them and their friends elsewhere. The influence 
of the library on the community has been immensely strengthened and what 



10 THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY 

is more to the point, the influence of the community on the library, and on 
the library staff, has been increased in a corresponding degree. The joy of 
interchanging ideas with one's fellows ought always to be a vivid one, and 
when one has not only his own ideas to purvey but those of the good and 
great of all ages to which he acts officially as custodian and introducer, that 
joy should be doubled and trebled. 

These relationships with the public put the members of the library staff 
on a point of great vantage in the inevitable future struggle for truth in this 
country, truth in the press, truth in books, truth in advertising, truth in all 
the arts, literature, sculpture, architecture. The cardinal sin of us moderns 
is falsehood, curiously enough, in part because we so revere the ancients, \vho 
told the truth in their day. Their day is not our day, however, and the fact 
that a building of a certain form was fit to be a place of worship in Greece 
does not necessarily fit it to be a bank in New York. Nor does the fact that 
Theocritus wrote of shepherds and shepherdesses in his day make it truthful 
for a poet to write of them in 1917. Of course this copying of antiquity 
is only one count in the indictment for falsehood. We are beginning to try to 
mend our ways. We are writing poetry that looks away from Olympus and 
Helicon toward the streets of Chicago arid the lumber forests of Michigan. 
We are carving statues that really look like their subjects and making the 
characters in our novels talk like real men and women. That is, we are 
doing this sometimes, not often yet. Says Sherwood Anderson in The 
Dial: "To my room, which is on a street near the loop in the city of Chicago, 
come men who write. They talk and I talk. We are fools. W r e talk of writers 
of the old world and the beauty and subtlety of the work they do. Below us 
the roaring city lies like a great animal on the prairies, but we do not run 
out to the prairies. / We stay in our rooms and talk." And again, "If one 
would avoid neat, slick writing, he must at least attempt to be brother to his 
brothers and live as the men of his time live." Now it seems to me that 
librarians, in these later years have decidedly begun to stop talking and have 
"run out to the prairies." They do "at least attempt to be brothers to their 
brothers." And in so far, they have enlisted in that great fight against false- 
hood which, as I have said, is now on, and is to be the intellectual and spiritual 
feature of the next century. "It is not too much to say," writes John Dewey, 
"that the final issue is how much the American people cares about the integrity 
and responsibility of the intellectual life of the nation." Professor Dewey is 
alluding here to the vital question of the control of teaching bodies by lay 
boards, which is another phase of the conflict on behalf of truth, but it surely 



THE JOYS OF LIBRARIANSHIP H 

applies to all phases and it ought to be satisfactory to librarians to know that 
they are in a position to fight down hill. To take part in the fight will assuredly 
be not the least of the "joys of librarianship." 

Closely connected with this struggle for truth is that task which is to be 
peculiarly our own as librarians, the teaching of the public what there is 
in books and how to get at it. The lack of this knowledge in the public is the 
greatest obstacle that I know to the complete success of the library. Every 
day we have evidence that there are members of our communities who do not 
know the simplest things about the contents of books, who will take the 
trouble, for instance, to write to the city clerk to ascertain the population of 
a town, not knowing that it can be found in the census reports, or who will 
write to the local paper to ask how a word is pronounced, instead of looking 
in the dictionary. Persons who do this are presumably not well educated, but 
when we leave elementary information and deal with that which is a little 
more advanced, we shall find persons of undeniable education and cultivation 
making practically the same mistake. These persons may be compared with 
the shipwrecked mariners in a boat who nearly perished of thirst in the mouth 
of the river Amazon because they thought they were still in salt water, or to 
a party lost in the woods and starving amid stores of edible fungi. They 
want information, and do not know where to get it, or that it is possible to 
get it at all, although they have but to put forth a hand to find it. 

Occasionally, though not often, we meet the correlative error of supposing 
that everything is written down somewhere. The two may be classed together 
as ignorance of what may be found in books and of how to get at it. 

The efforts that we have made to mend this condition of affairs have 
not been very effective, although some of them have been expensive. We 
have not yet all reacted to the very great expansion of our clientele. It is the 
scholar's business to know what is in books, and so when we were libraries 
solely for scholars, this matter did not trouble us. Now we are libraries for 
children, and business men and laborers, and either the schools or we our- 
selves must do something to improve the knowledge of books acquired by 
these classes of the community if we are to serve them as we boast we are 
ready to do. Obviously the contents of the volumes on our shelves will do 
little good to persons who do not know that they exist or that they are access- 
ible, or what they contain. To the useful type of mind that delights in effect- 
ing public enlightenment, this task makes a special appeal. I trust that we shall 
find enough interested library workers to make it their own, to devise ways 
of doing it, to follow them to achievement and to add in so doing to the joys 
of librarianship. 



12 THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY 

To persons with a sense of humor, work in libraries offers very special 
joys, which come, according to my view, as an indication that such persons 
are fitted in some particular way for their task. The library assistant who 
could work long at the loan desk, in the reference room, with children, or 
with the foreign population at a branch, without getting into a state of inex- 
tinguishable laughter is surely the exception. Nor does such an assistant 
necessarily laugh at the people and things that she sees, at least in the sense 
of making them butts for ridicule. One may assuredly laugh without sneering 
or jeering, with a humor that simply sweetens the work, often relieving what 
would otherwise be its gloom and making one glow through and through with 
the feeling that the world, as Stevenson's "Child" says, "is so full of a number 
of things," and not only the one profanely-condemned thing after another of 
our later formula, but with things that bring a smile to the face and a lightness 
to the heart. When one has to inspect the grimy paws of 17,000 children 
one appreciates such an excuse as that I remember from Chatham Square, 
to the effect that "the wind blew the dirt on" between home and library. When 
one is listening to the angry protestations of a member of the public indignant 
at being compelled to pay a cent for a reserve postal, how refreshing to have 
an old lady present the coin to the fiery protester, as a slight recognition of 
the library's services to her personally, as was done once at Bloomingdale ! 

I fear that we librarians do not make enough of these joyous features. 
If we did, we should not be described by current writers as the dusty, solemn, 
be-wigged and be-spectacled fossils that date, if they ever existed at all, back 
to 1827 and have no affinities with 1917. I know librarians that keep these 
humorous anecdotes in notebooks and occasionally laugh over them in secret. 
It is believed that open joy would alienate the public. Why should it? We 
laugh openly at our brothers and sisters in the family and they do not mind, 
though they would seriously object if we made them secret objects of merri- 
ment. If your library is a home place for the neighbors they will feel likewise. 
If you will read a little pamphlet entitled "Where Neighbors Meet," issued 
this year by our own library, you will find some good-natured fun, enough 
I hope, to persuade the readers that our lives are not unrelieved gloom. Let 
us not forget that our reports may be true, every word of them, and may yet 
give the false impression that library work is 50 per cent, statistics and 50 per 
cent, fatigue, very much as Mary E. Wilkins in her stories has created the 
feeling that every inhabitant of New England is eccentric or gloomy, or both. 
Only our reports will never achieve the triumph of falsity that attaches to Miss 
Wilkins because she is generally readable and they as generally are not. 



THE JOYS OF LIBRARIANSHIP 13 

One of the librarian's greatest joys at the present time should be his 
opportunity of doing national service. By national service I mean service that 
is at the same time country-wide and linked up with as many other forms of 
country-wide service as possible. This kind of service libraries are becoming 
more and more fitted to give, as is being shown in connection with the war; but 
the end of the war is by no means going to see the end of the service. Does 
anyone imagine, for instance, that there are to be no more libraries in military 
camps at the close of hostilities, no more efforts toward food-conservation? 

I have said that this kind of service should be a joy. It involves of course, 
extra labor, fatigue and physical discomfort. How these should be regarded 
may be learned from a recent address by President George E. Vincent. I quote 
him as follows from memory: - "Whatever you do, don't talk about sacrifice. 
When I hear a man talk about sacrifice, I suspect that he is really doing very 
little. On one occasion I heard a woman say to Dr. Grenfell, 'Oh Dr. Grenfell, 
we all admire you so for the noble work you are doing and for the sacrifices 
you are making in doing it.' Dr. Grenfell drew himself up. 'My dear Madam,' 
he said, 'You misconceive the situation entirely. I'm having the time of m\ 
life in Labrador.' ' Whatever we librarians do in the present crisis and how- 
ever we do it, we must be having the time of our lives in doing it. If we 
are, we shall worry little about hours and vacations. Our boards will have 
to insist that we take so many hours to sleep, and so many to eat, and there 
will be no keeping us away from our work. 

There are no joys greater than serving one's country in her need, and 
this is only another illustration of our main thesis, because everyone is fitted 
for some kind of national service and those of us who are left in charge of 
our libraries may take our pick among many kinds, all related to books 
and their manifold uses. 

But is there not much routine connected with library work? How shall 
the worker adapt himself to that, so that he may get joy out of it as a by- 
product? This matter of routine is so important that it may pay us to give 
it some special attention. There is routine in all work, and some work is all 
routine. The ideal way to dispose of it is to turn it all over to machines. 
We have, in fact, so disposed of a vast mass of it in our industries, somewhat 
hampered by the fact that the very persons who complain of it as a burden 
are the first to resent being relieved of it by mechanical devices. It is doubt- 
less the fate of all routine work to be done by machinery, and library routine 
will be no exception. So far, we have disposed of very little of it in this way, 
except in our binderies; though such steps as the use of L. C. cards for 
cataloguing may possibly be classed as mechanical. This is one of the non- 



14 THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY 

progressive items with which library work must be debited. There is in this 
audience the inventor of a mechanical automatic charging system approved 
by experts as perfectly feasible, which we have allowed to slumber on paper 
for a dozen years or so. But ultimately we shall adopt this and other me- 
chanical devices to do part of our work the pasting of labels, the use of 
rubber stamps and perforating machinery even perhaps such work as the 
shelving of books. Why should not every book slide to its place on the shelf 
as the matrix in a linotype machine goes to its proper compartment in distribu- 
tion or as the cylinder in a pneumatic tube system selects the route that it is 
intended to take ? 

But while we are waiting for the introduction of machinery to relieve us 
of our routine, let us not forget that machinery has already been provided in 
the human brain to do this very thing. We are using it every day to take care 
of the most vital parts of our daily lives. It sees to our breathing, to the 
digestion of our food, to the motion of our legs in walking, to the avoidance 
of threatened danger. These things have all been removed, under ordinary 
conditions, from the sphere of our conscious activities, and any matter of 
routine can be relegated by us to the same control i f we go about it in the right 
way. Anyone who is doing such routine work as pasting labels or using a 
rubber stamp may also use nearly his or her full time, when so occupied, in 
activity requiring the use of the higher mental faculties. It is astonishing 
how much the subconscious mind can absorb and care for automatically. Many 
years ago I lived in a house where it was necessary to use a hand force-pump 
to fill a tank in the attic, and I contributed some of my time each evening to 
this form of service. I soon found that it required a definite number of 
strokes to fill the tank and that it was desirable to know from time to time, 
the exact stage of the work. One would think that to count the strokes would 
require fixing the mind continuously on the work and that doing it subcon- 
sciously was out of the question. Yet the problem was soon solved in the 
following way. The pumping was done in time to a melody, which required 
for its full performance a certain number of strokes, say 300. The melody 
selected was so familiar that it could be hummed, or rather, acoustically 
imaged, subconsciously. I had only to take note of the instants when the 
melody ended and had to be begun again, and this did not much interfere with 
my train of thought, which could therefore be pursued uninterruptedly, leav- 
ing both pumping and counting to my subconsciousness. This employment 
of melody to do subconscious counting has a wide application. I am mention- 
ing it here to show how r , by the adoption of special mental devices, all sorts 
of routine work may be done mechanically, releasing the higher brain centres 



THE JOYS OF LIBRARIANSHIP 15 

for constructive thought. Many of us, I am sure, have found that this is 
the case. The trouble is that we use our minds, thus released from bondage, 
for all sorts of useless thought, for trivial reminiscence, for planning things 
that need no planning, for fault finding with the very mechanical character of 
the work that enables us to put it out of the conscious mind altogether. Instead, 
these periods obviously ought to be used to perfect ourselves in the details of 
our work, to devise methods of improvement and expansion, to plan for its 
future development, increasing the correspondence between it and our own 
capacities and thereby widening and deepening our joy in it. The routine 
work of librarianship therefore, apart from its possible future transfer to 
mechanical devices, ought not to be a lessener of its joys, but rather a con- 
tributor to them. 

I hear something, here and elsewhere, of the dissatisfaction of library 
assistants with their work, of their expressed intention to leave it for some- 
thing which they imagine will be more congenial. So far as this is the result 
of faulty adaptation, so far as it is the jolting of the square peg out of the 
round hole, I sympathize with it and have nothing to say against it. But I 
believe that it may be more than this. It may signify a general misapprehen- 
sion of what the congeniality of work implies and an effort to get pleasure 
from it by first intention instead of as a by-product of one's adaptation to it. 
In this event, of course, assistants who leave library work for some other 
form of activity will never find satisfaction; they will never take pleasure in 
what they are doing; their occupation, whatever it may be, will be forever 
barren of joys. 

It may be, of course, that there are persons who can never adapt them- 
selves to any kind of useful activity, who are butterflies pure and simple, fitted 
only to flit about in the sun and gleaning joy only from that fitness. It may 
be, I say, that there are such persons. I know of none and, being now a citizen 
of Missouri, I demand to be shown one before I acknowledge their existence. 
Failure to fit oneself to one's work comes never, I prefer to think, from general 
unfitness for useful activity, but always either from the squareness of the hole 
in which the round peg reposes or from putting the cart before the horse and 
thinking that one must love one's work before one can do it well instead of 
loving it because one is able to do it well. 

I have been trying to catalogue infinity. The mathematicians tell us that 
infinity has no plus or minus sign. Go indefinitely to right or left and you 
will bring up at the same point. We know it is so on our little round earth, 
where east and west meet in the antipodes: perhaps it is so in space, too, where 
by some subtle curvature undetected of our senses, the gazing astronomer, as 



15 THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY 

suggested by some scientific humorist, may one day succeed in seeing his own 
back hair. Anyway, I know it is so with our subject. Whether the joys of 
librarianship are infinitely great, as they seem to me, or infinitely small, as 
they may seem to some of you, is really all one. It depends, after all, not on 
your librarianship alone, or on you alone; but, as I have said, on the adaptation 
of the one to the other. If this adaptation were an absolute quantity unalter- 
able by human effort, I should say to those of you who want to leave us, as 
Greeley wanted to say to the Seceding States, "Erring sisters, go in peace." 
But it is not so. Just as "the way to resume was to resume," when we were 
wondering how to effect the resumption of specie payments, so the way to 
like librarianship is to like it. The way to fit yourself to it is to stick to it as 
closely as you may, as Professor William Lyon Phelps tells us he stuck to the 
symphony concerts that he disliked so much at first. He ended by loving 
them, and you will end in like manner by loving your work. Those of us who 
have been at it longest love it most, and we love all its connections, animate 
and inanimate. Were it not so, your speaker would not have journeyed a 
thousand miles to say these words to you to-night. 

Long may our libraries live and do increasing public service ! Long may 
The New York Public Library stand as the intellectual civic centre of this 
metropolis! And as the structure cannot stand if the stones crumble, long 
may your Staff Association, thus auspiciously begun, continue, with undimin- 
ished numbers to appreciate and inculcate the Joys of Librarianship. 



A FOREWORD TO THE LIST OF REFERENCES 
ON SUBMARINES 

BY SIMON LAKE 

T HAVE read with great interest the proof sheets of this compilation of 
I books, magazines and technical papers relating to submarines. Now that 
the submarine is becoming recognized as the most important weapon ever 
introduced into "The art of warfare on the high seas," information regarding 
its development is being eagerly sought by many people who are interested in 
the advancement of science. 

The destiny of the submarine is as yet but little understood by the casual 
reader; at the present time its introduction into the art of warfare has caused 
it to be condemned by many, while others look upon it as a means of defense 
against or a means of destroying overwhelming sea power and, perhaps, think 
it may be utilized to assist in extending domination over other peoples when 
combined with military supremacy on land. I think those who use it for any 
illegitimate purpose will eventually see their error. 

Submarine inventors have, from the earliest days, considered the sub- 
marine boat as a means to advanced knowledge of things beneath the surface 
of the seas, to recover and restore to the use of mankind many of the things 
that have gone to the bottom of the sea in ships, and also to recover the natural 
products of the sea, in the nature of shell fish, sponges, coral, pearls, and to 
reach mineral and other deposits heretofore inaccessible and unavailable to 
the people. The introduction of the submarine in war will eventually prove 
a benefit to all of the smaller and less powerful nations, as the submarine is 
undoubtedly able to offer to any nation the greatest degree of security for 
the least expenditure of money in the defense of its coast line. 

This compilation will make available to the student of submarine naviga- 
tion information that it has heretofore been almost impossible to procure, cover- 
ing, as it does, published articles on this subject dating back from a period of 
over two thousand years to the present time. I remember in years gone by, 
many days spent in searching through various libraries for information regard- 
ing the submarine, of which little could then be found. I can, therefore, appre- 
ciate the great amount of time which the compiler of this bibliography must 
have given to this investigation. Much of the literature relating to submarines 
is based on hearsay, romance and imagination, but imagination may lead 
to scientific development, so that both the student of the romance of "The 
mysteries of the deep" and the investigator of its uses as a weapon of war, or 
its possibilities in the commercial field, will all appreciate the labor which has 
been put into the preparation of this bibliography.

SUBMARINES 

A LIST OF REFERENCES IN THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY 



COMPILED BY MARY ETHEL JAMESON 

Science Division 



This list of references in The New York Public Library is submitted as an aid to those interested 
in the history and construction of the submarine boat. Questions of international affairs have not been 
included, although in several cases the documents have involved this phase of the discussion. 

The patent records have not been reprinted here, as quite a complete list has already appeared in 
the General Electric Review for August, 1917. An exception has been made, however, in the case of the 
mechanism of the deep sea bomb which has proven so effective in combatting the underwater foe, the basic 
patents for which are listed under date of 1900, covering a self-winding clock. These patents, with modifica- 
tions and subsequent improvements, have been adapted to the pressure bombs which explode at given depths 
determined by the regulation of the gauge. 

So many requests have come to the Science Division for information regarding the transmission and 
propagation of sound under water that a few references on submarine signalling have been added in a 
section following the documents. 

Attention is directed to the list prepared by Mr. W. A. Ellis on Torpedoes and printed in the Bulletin 
for October, 1917, v. 21, p. 657-726 (also issued in separate form). This very complete bibliography has 
made the inclusion of such literature quite unnecessary here, although the submarine and the torpedo are 
so closely related.

These mechanisms comprise the basic principles 
of the deep sea bombs, which have been the most 
potent enemy of the submarine. At a given depth 
the pressure of the water, determined by an adjust- 
able gauge, works upon the device which causes the 
bomb to explode. The water is compressed to such 
a degree that the hull of the submarine is caused to 
collapse or spring leaks. There have been subsequent 
patents which have been combined with these (all 
patents of Mr. Fulton's) to evolve this formidable 
weapon.

THE PLATES OF THE WINTHROP BOOKS 

BY ELBRIDGE COLBY 

THERE are in The New York Public Library, in the collection of manu- 
scripts by American authors, several fat volumes, the originals of the 
books of Theodore Winthrop. Some previous study has resulted in the publi- 
cation of a fairly complete bibliography of Winthrop (Bulletin of The New 
York Public Library, January, 1917), and of a sketch on the editorial changes 
made in the original manuscripts (The Nation, June 29, 1916). 

It is my purpose in these few pages to comment on .the bibliography and 
to tell exactly how the books, both the plates and the sheets, passed from 
publisher to publisher during a period of nearly forty years. I do this because 
I consider it an interesting commentary on American literature of the last 
half of the nineteenth century, when publishers could import British best- 
sellers more cheaply than they could issue new American successes. In this 
case, as it turns out, they found it possible to print cheap popular editions of 
an American author who had sold well, and to print them cheaply because 
they printed from the same old and battered plates which had been used for 
the first impressions during the Civil War. 

Speaking with a number of persons who are in what we may call the 
present generation, I have found Theodore Winthrop almost unknown to them 
as a class. On the other hand, conversation with older people, with people who 
have lived through somewhat more than half of the years since the Civil War, 
revealed a very widespread knowledge of his life and of his works. His 
popularity seems to have died with the close of, the century. But during the 
thirty years immediately following the battle of great Bethel, the sale of his 

[87] 



88 THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY 

works was positively stupendous. On their first publication the novels ran 
through three editions in a week, five editions in ten days, and seven editions 
in two years, respectively. 1 The sale kept up. In three years, there were 
seventeen editions of Cecil Dreeme, eight of Edzwn Brothertoft, fourteen of 
John Brent, and eight of The Canoe and the Saddle. The publishing firm of 
Ticknor and Fields was changed to Fields, Osgood, and then to J. R. Osgood 
and Company. In 1876, as a result of a public auction in New York of plates 
and publishing rights of books owned by J. R. Osgood and Company, the 
Winthrop books were transferred to Henry Holt and Company. They brought 
an extremely small price, something less than one hundred dollars for the five 
books, subject, however, to a small royalty to the author's heirs. 2 

This would seem to indicate that the demand for them had practically 
ceased at that time. But such was very evidently not the case. Beginning in 
April, 1876, printing from the original plates, Henry Holt and Company 
started to put the books on the market in their Leisure Hour Series. They 
were kept busy publishing reprints until 1889, issuing nine editions each of 
Cecil Dreeme and John Brent, and three of each of the other three. This 
New York firm also published in March, 1884, The Life and Poems of 
Theodore Winthrop, 3 compiled from letters and journals, and edited by his 
sister. 

In 1890 the Holt company sold "the plates and stock" to a Mr. James S. 
Packard, who was an agent for J. W. Lovell and Company. John W. Lovell 
and Company and the United States Book Company, which succeeded it during 
1891, published at least one edition of each of the five books in the Lovell' s 
American Authors Series, but how many more it is not possible to determine. 4 
When the United States Book Company failed in 1892, 5 it was suggested to 
Dodd, Mead and Company that they purchase editions of three of the books. 
This they did and issued them in April, 1899. They purchased two thousand 
sheets of each and bound up the last of the John Brent sheets in March, 1908, 
Canoe and Saddle in 1905, and Cecil Dreeme in November, 1908. The com- 
pany was at that time in the hands of a receiver and the plates were returned 
to him. 6 These were the last editions printed. I have seen and examined 
specimens of the editions of each of the different publishers, and it appears

3 Letter to present writer from Henry Holt and Company. 

4 The present writer has communicated with Mr. Lovell and Mr. Coryell, sales-manager, United States 
Book Co., but the records were destroyed and memories fail. The books were issued serially, numbered 
and mailed as second-class mail matter, but the New York post office records yield no information. 

5 Letter to present writer from Mr, Coryell, January 15, 1913. Mr. Lovell says 1893, but Mr. Coryell's 
other information is (in my opinion) more reliable than Mr. Lovell's..

very evident from the details of the printing,, broken letters, etc., that the 
original plates were used throughout. 7 

When the United States Book Company went into a receivership in 1892, 
it was reorganized as the American Publishing Corporation. This company 
also went into a receivership, and in its turn was reorganized as the Publishers' 
Plate Renting Company. This last company went out of business several years 
ago and all the plates were sold. 8 Street and Smith purchased The Canoe and 
the Saddle, Cecil Dreeme, and John Brent plates which \vere, however, in such 
bad condition that they could not be used. They were "stereos" and were all 
battered down, so they were melted up for old metal. 9 As the three other 
firms to whom plates of this company were sold have advised the present 
writer that they purchased no Winthrop plates, 10 and as Mr. Coryell says that 
"all plates of the United States Book Company that could not be sold above 
the price of plate metal, were sold for old metal/' we close with the assump- 
tion that the Life in the Open Air, and Edzvi-n Brothertoft plates were thus 
destroyed. The coincidence of the three titles, the plates of which Street and 
Smith bought, with those of the sheets Dodd, Mead and Company purchased 
and issued, leads us to a further assumption that the Life in the Open Air, 
and Edwin Brothertoft plates were destroyed earlier than we can obtain record, 
since their un fitness for printing was probably the reason Dodd, Mead and 
Company issued only three titles, and those the three they did, namely, Cecil 
Dreeme, John Brent, and The Canoe and the Saddle. 

There was but one printing of the Life and Poems volume; and, though 
the edition is exhausted and though the Holt's still keep it listed in catalogue, 11 
it has never been reissued. There was also but one edition of Mr. Waddy's 
Return which Henry Holt and Company published in October 1904. 12 

Life said (Feb. 23, 1905) : "A novel by Theodore Winthrop is a startling 
thing to find among the newest books. . .and one reads. . .with something of 
a Pandora-like feeling that used to accompany the opening of old trunks in 
the twilight garret." So it must have seemed. Yet, on looking the book over 
again, after the lapse of years, it appeared to his sister, Miss Elizabeth W. 
Winthrop, too good to let die; and, according to a publisher's note prefixed 
to the volume, it was placed in the hands of Mr. Burton E. Stevenson to give 
it such revision and condensation as it may be presumed that the author, had he 
lived, would have given it himself.

new plates." Letter to present writer, February 10, 1913.

sale was very small." Letter to present writer, December 22, 1912. 



90 THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY 

"The story was written" out by hand and the author's name did not appear" 
on the old manuscript, but, in spite of the difficulty of reading it, it impressed 
Mr. Stevenson immensely. He told Henry Holt and Company that it seemed 
"a decided find" and, with the condition of thorough revision and intelligent 
condensation, strongly advised its publication. The Holt's wrote back, stating 
that the author was Theodore Winthrop and asking Mr. Stevenson to under- 
take the revision of the book. This he ultimately did and we can gain an 
idea of how much he altered the original by noting the adverse criticism he 
included in "the opinion sent the Holt's at the time." 13 From this "opinion" 
we learn that he cut out about twenty- five thousand words, including a great 
deal of slavery talk, and a number of picturesque loiter ings up incidental by- 
paths; and that he probably made some rearrangement of chapters. 

There are but three other ways in which the name of Theodore Winthrop 
has persisted in the book-printing business. In 1874, Mr. Rossiter Johnson 
edited for James R. Osgood and Company of Boston a series of small volumes 
under the name "Little Classics." 14 In volume six, devoted to Love, he included 
Love and Skates. This volume went through twenty-nine different editions 
of varying size between January, 1875, and December, 1910, and was also 
reprinted with the other seven volumes in four new impressions of the entire 
series. 15 Love and Skates of course does not deserve the full credit for this 
circulation, as it was only one story of several; and yet we must not neglect to 
give it its own share of the credit. G. P. Putnam's Sons, on account of its 
intrinsic worth and on account of its convenient size, gave Love and Skates a 
place in their Ariel Booklet Series, and published it in New York in 1902; an 
English edition at London in March, 1905; and a second American edition at 
New York in November, 1906. Plates had been made for the Putnam pub- 
lication and were used in printing the second edition. 16 In 1913, Mr. John H. 
Williams of Tacoma, Washington, filled with a love for Mount Rainier, which 
Winthrop well describes, and impressed with Winthrop's journey through the 
Northwest in road building days, got out an elaborately illustrated edition of 
The Canoe and the Saddle, editing and publishing it himself. It was an act 
of love and it is doubtful if any similar book with such a local appeal selling 
for a similar high price could ever succeed as a publishing proposition. 

In such ways has Winthrop managed to be kept before the reading public 
long after his widespread popularity had passed. And no inconsiderable item 
in keeping his eminently readable novels in the hands of the public was the fact 
that the same old plates, passing through auction after auction and bankruptcy 
after bankruptcy, were still used to get out cheap editions of the work which 
was once so highly prized.

SUBMARINES 

A LIST OF REFERENCES IN THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY 



COMPILED BY MARY ETHEL JAMESON 

Science Division 



This list of references in The New York Public Library is submitted as an aid to those interested 
in the history and construction of the submarine boat. Questions of international affairs have not been 
included, although in several cases the documents have involved this phase of the discussion. 

The patent records have not been reprinted here, as quite a complete list has already appeared in 
the General Electric Review for August, 1917. An exception has been made, however, in the case of the 
mechanism of the deep sea bomb which has proven so effective in combatting the underwater foe, the basic 
patents for which are listed under date of 1900, covering a self-winding clock. These patents, with modifica- 
tions and subsequent improvements, have been adapted to the pressure bombs which explode at given depths 
determined by the regulation of the gauge. 

So many requests have come to the Science Division for information regarding the transmission and 
propagation of sound under water that a few references on submarine signalling have been added in a 
section following the documents. 

Attention is directed to the list prepared by Mr. W. A. Ellis on Torpedoes and printed in the Bulletin 
for October, 1917, v. 21, p. 657-726 (also issued in separate form). This very complete bibliography has 
made the inclusion of such literature quite unnecessary here, although the submarine and the torpedo are 
so closely related.

affect the safety of the boat and endanger the lives
