PREFACE
This handbook is an outgrowth of a desire to make the
library resources of Chicago better known both to the members
of the Chicago Library Club and to the public, and to com-
memorate in a modest way the twenty-fifth anniversary of the
club's existence. The list of libraries is not complete although
considerable effort has been expended to make it so. The data
in regard to each institution is simply an indication of its
resources. It is hoped that the index of subjects will make this
information more valuable.
The committee is indebted to Miss Ahern for a short sketch
of the history and development of the club. In 1905 the club
issued a very useful volume, "Libraries of the City of Chicago
with an Historical Sketch of the Chicago Library Club," which
gives a more chronological and constitutional history.

A RESUME OF THE CLUB'S CAREER
The recorded history of the Chicago Library Club tells of
several motives in the minds of those whose activity brought
about the organization. There were at that time, it is said, a
number of library workers in Chicago, who had previously been
members of the New York Library Club. Further, it was fore-
seen that the occasion of the World's Columbian Exposition
would bring to Chicago those interested in library development,
in such numbers and under such circumstances as would seem
to call for an impersonal host for the occasions which wuold
arise.
However it was, the club was organized in December, 1891,
in common with many similar groups of Chicago people, deter-
mined to make the visitors to the World's Fair understand
Chicago and its interests.
The occasion of the World's Fair in Chicago marked a new
era for many lines of endeavor. Among these was library
service and extension. Not only in Chicago, but throughout the
entire Middle West, if, indeed, one may not say the whole
country, library work as a public service took on new energy,
character, enlightenment and many far-reaching results that had
not marked its existence before.
It must always be a matter of pride to the Chicago Library
Club that its first president was Dr. William Frederick Poole.
His election bespoke activity and farsightedness and at the same
time assured genial companionship and inspiration.
The personnel of the Chicago Library Club changed rapidly
with the activities of the time. Death removed Dr. Poole, change
of position took Mr. Nelson, Miss Clarke, Mr. Pickett, Dr. Wire
and other moving spirits out of its circle; but it brought in
the late lamented Katharine L. Sharp and Anderson H. Hopkins,
C. W. Andrews, William Warner Bishop, while the interest
of C. B. Roden, William Stetson Merrill, Irene Warren, C. R.
Perry and others still remained a helpful influence in the club.
In later years the club has rejoiced in the membership of the
well-beloved Henry E. Legler, W. N. C. Carlton, Geo. B. Utley,
all prominent in the national councils of librarians.
The interest of the club, far from being a concentrated pro-
fessional thing, reached out into the affairs of the city and of
the state, with which library interests were of right, concerned.
Through the initial activity and continued interest of the Chciago
Library Club, jail libraries for Cook County were first started,
from which grew not only the development of the socialized
4 CHICAGO LIBRARY CLUB
attitude of the Cook County and Bridewell jailers, but which,
because of the interest of Mr. Whitman, has since reached out
into other correctional work in penal institutions.
The home libraries were the seed from which afterwards grew
institutional and deposit libraries throughout the city.
When the library interests seemed to lack in treatment the
vision and appreciation which they had a right to expect from
the municipal authorities, a committee of the Chicago Library
Club called upon the then mayor of Chicago and presented to
.him those things which they considered defects in the manner
and cause of appointments to the library board and it may be
safely claimed that a new library day in Chicago, in a very
large measure, began through the influence of that movement.
The Chicago Library Club at this time also asked the mayor
to appoint a committee of citizens to consider the relations
between the libraries, museums and art galleries of the city and
out of that grew a form of cooperation which, while it has not
yet attained the growth and power that could be desired, is still
a work that redounds to the credit of its founders.
The publications of the club have been few, the magnum opus
being the List of Serials in the public libraries of Chicago and
vicinity. This work was afterward taken over by the John
Crerar Library, but it had its origin in the spirit of the Chicago
Library Club.
In the early days the discussions before the club were largely
on library work. It was possible then to have persons of national
reputation address the club on matters that were closely related
to the work of its members. William H. Brett of Cleveland,
Mrs. S. C. Fairchild, Dr. James H. Canfield, Melvil Dewey,
Arthur E. Bostwick, Dr. Herbert Putnam, among the librarians,
and Professor James Westfall Thompson, Jane Addams, Pro-
fessor Charles Zueblin, Dr. Myra Reynolds, Rev. F. W. Gun-
saulus, Colonel F. W. Parker, Mrs. Ellen H. Richards and
others outside the library office related library service to their
fields of activity.
The annual party, which has grown in size and diversions, if
not in effect, was instituted in January, 1899, and its effort, more
or less successful, at being hostess to the A. L. A. and at times,
to its council, are well known.
It must not fail to be recorded that the transfer of the A. L. A.
headquarters from Boston to Chicago was initiated by members
of the Chicago Library Club and that the generous aid which
made possible the first fitting up of headquarters came through
the influence and activity of the Chicago Library Club member-
ship.
There is a temptation to dwell upon the fields that were not
occupied, the endeavors that were not made and the opportunities
that were not used, in looking over the history of the Chicago
Library Club, the temptation fails when memory also recalls
to those of long time membership, the gratifying and valuable
development in professional spirit, in the clearsightedness of
the majority of the members and the appreciation of the value
of professional association which is manifest among the members
today, after twenty-eight years of existence.
The service of the club has been helpfully extended, through
the membership, to the betterment of library service for Illinois
and when the history of the development of libraries in the
state is recorded, the names of members of the Chicago Library
Club will, of right, be writ in its annals.
There has been a fine spirit of camaraderie, a remarkable
absence of personal aggrandizement or ambition and a willing-
ness to do team work, that can be traced throughout the history
of the club. The success of one has been the success of all and
the misfortune of one has brought forth the sympathy of all.
