FRANCIS  B.  GRAVES 

Francis  B.  Graves,  one  of  the  early 
members  of  the  C.  L.  A.  and  a  well- 
known  figure  in  California  library  circles 
for  many  years,  died  in  Alameda  Decem- 
ber 1,  1933,  at  the  age  of  seventy.  He 
began  his  library  work  in  what  is  now 
the    Mechanics-Mercantile    Library,    San 


Francisco,  February  5,  1885,  but  left  to 
become  librarian  in  Alameda  November  3, 
1899.  He  returned  to  the  Mechanics- 
Mercantile  Library  December  1,  1907, 
and  held  the  position  of  librarian  there 
continuously  until  his  death  exactly 
twenty-six  years  later.  Mr.  Graves  was 
said  to  have  known  personally  every  book 
in  the  large  Mechanics-Mercantile  collec- 
tion and  in  his  quiet,  scholarly  but 
friendly  way  he  was  happy  to  give  help 
to  all  who  sought  it  from  him.  His  loyal 
and  appreciative  friends  are  grieved  at 
the  passing  of  a  librarian  and  a  gentle- 
man of  "the  old  school."

BOARD    OF    LIBRARY    EXAMINERS 


EVERETT  R.  PERRY 

The  California  library  world  was 
shocked  late  in  October  to  learn  of  the 
serious  illness  and  then  the  death  of 
Everett  R.  Perry.  As  he  had  always 
looked  well  and  strong  and  was  only  in 
his  fifty-eighth  year  it  was  to  be  ex- 
pected that  he  would  still  have  many 
years  of  vital  service  to  give  to  his  chosen 
profession.  It  is  with  a  great  sense  of 
loss,  then,  that  we  record  Mr.  Perry's 
death  and  the  end  of  his  connection  with 
the  Los  Angeles  Public  Library  of  which 


he  had  been  librarian  since  1911,  the 
Board  of  Library  Examiners,  on  which 
he  served  continuously  from  the  same 
date,  and  the  California  Librai-y  Asso- 
ciation in  which  he  always  took  an 
active  part  and  whose  president  he  was 
in  1916-17.  Although  his  actual  work 
in  these  organizations  is  over,  his  influ- 
ence on  all  of  them  has  left  an  indelible 
impression.  His  constant  and  vigorous 
interest  in  library  affairs  and  his  energy 
in  translating  this  interest  into  effective 
action  have  given  him  a  high  place  in 
California   library   annals.

Gillis  attended  the  annual  joint  meeting 
of  the  Northern  and  Southern  sections  of 
the  California  School  Library  Association 
in  Fresno  October  28-29,  and  spoke  in-

November  4  Miss  Gillis  attended  the 
meeting  of  the  8-9  District  of  the  Cali- 
fornia Library  Association  at  Chico  and 
was  the  main  speaker  at  the  afternoon

Jackson  on  November  17  she  told  of  her 
impressions  of  the  A.  L.  A.  November 
20  she  spoke  at  the  meeting  of  the  North- 
ern District  of  the  California  Federa- 
tion of  Women's  Clubs  in  San  Francisco 
and  from  there  went  to  Los  Angeles  to 
attend  to  library  business  in  that  vicinity 
for  the  remainder  of  the  week.  On  De- 
cember 8  Miss  Gillis  and  Miss  Girdner, 
librarian  of  Galileo  High  School,  San 
Francisco,  represented  the  California 
Library  Association  at  a  meeting  called 
by  the  State  Department  of  Education  to 
discuss  a  Charter  for  Public  Education. 

Miss  Hitt  was  in  the  southern  part  of 
the  state  November  2—7  and  was  the  offi- 
cial representative  of  the  State  Library 
at  the  funeral  of  Mr.  Everett  R.  Perry 
on  November  1.     On  November  2  she  at- 


tended the  C.  L.  A.  Executive  Committee

sented Miss  Gillis  at  the  meeting  of  the

sided at  a  meeting  of  the  Certification

Australia  and  certain  other  foreign  coun- 
tries, and  briefs  of  counsel  in  cases  de- 
cided in  the  California  Supreme  and 
Appellate  courts.  State  officers  are  en-

viduals are  accorded  the  same  privilege 
upon  presentation  of  a  request  signed  by 
a  Supreme,  Appellate  or  Superior  Judge, 
or  other  State  officer.  Books  may  be 
kept  three  weeks,  and  will  be  once  re- 
newed for  two  weeks.  All  books  are  sub- 
ject to  recall,  if  required  by  a  State 
officer,  or  if,  in  the  opinion  of  the  Li- 
brarian, a  recall  is  fair  and  expedient.

PRINTS    SECTION 

Bertha  S.  Taylor,  Librarian.

was  occupied  in  August,  1928.  In  it  are 
kept  the  prints  acquired  by  the  State  Li- 
brary for  several  years  past  and  now  for 
the  first  time  suitably  housed  and  dis- 
played. In  display  cases  can  be  shown 
about  fifty  prints  at  a  time  and  exhibits 
are  constantly  maintained.  Visitors  are 
invited. 

Six  prints  were  added  during  the  last 
quarter,  making  the  total  number  of 
prints  3146.

news  notes  of  California  libraries     [January,  1934 


of  Los  Angeles  "was  shown  in  the  Prints 
Room  during-  October  and  the  first  two 
weeks  of  November.  During  the  rest  of 
November  the  exhibit  was  taken  from  the 
State  Library's  collection  and  consisted 
of  prints  of  animals,  birds  and  fish  by 
various  artists  and  in  all  mediums. 

During  December  the  Library  had  its 
fifth  annual  exhibition  from  the  Print 
Makers  Society  of  California. 

There  were  854  visitors  to  the  Prints 
Room  during  these  three  months. 

Two  talks  on  prints  were  made  by  the 
Prints  Librarian  during  this  quarter. 

BOOKS   FOR  THE   BLIND   SECTION 

Mabel  R.  Gillis,  in  charge. 

Embossed  books  in  the  various  types 
are  sent  to  any  blind  resident  in  Cali- 
fornia upon  application.  Circular  and 
finding  list,  with  call  slip  postal,  will  be 
sent  on  request.  Writing  appliances  and 
games  for  the  blind  are  loaned  as  samples 
to  those  wishing  to  buy  such  articles,  so 
that  the  different  kinds  can  be  tried  be- 
fore they  are  ordered.  Addresses  of  firms 
supplying  all  articles  loaned  will  be  fur- 
nished on  request. 

Books  sent  to  individuals  from  an  in- 
stitution distributing  embossed  literature 
are  carried  free  through  the  mails. 

Embossed  catalogs  of  the  earlier  mate- 
rial in  American  Braille,  Moon  and  New 
York  point  are  available.  They  will  be 
loaned  to  borrowers  wishing  them  for  use 
in  book  selection. 

A  catalog  of  all  books  in  Moon  type  in 
the  Library  up  to  October  1,  1926,  and 
one  including  all  books  in  Braille  up  to 
April  1,  1927,  will  be  sent  to  anyone  re- 
questing it. 

The  State  Library  will  be  glad  to  have 
borrowers  who  care  to  do  so  write  any 
letters  or  requests  for  books  to  the  Li- 
brary in  Braille  or  New  York  point. 

Attention  of  the  borrowers  is  drawn  to 
the  fact  that  books  for  return  to  the  Li- 
brary should  always  be  placed  inside 
mail  boxes  and  not  left  on  top  of  them. 

Again  we  request  borrowers  not  to 
send  post  card  receipts  or  requests  to  the 
Library  inside  of  books.  When  books  are 
returned  they  often  go  out  very  quickly 
again  and  the  pages  are  not  opened  up 
one  by  one.  Therefore,  a  request  sent  in 
that  way  can  very  easily  be  lost  for  many 
months.  The  post  cards  should  be  sent  in 
the   mail   separately. 

Books  may  be  kept  one  month.  At  the 
end  of  that  period  they  will  be  renewed 
on  request  unless  the  demand  for  them  is 
so  great  that  renewal  is  not  feasible. 

At  the  1931  session  of  Congress  an  an- 
nual appropriation  of  $100,000  was  made 
for  providing  books  for  adult  blind.  This 
work  is  handled  bv  the  Library  of  Con- 
gress with  the  books  printed  at  or  pur- 
chased    from     various     printing     houses. 


The  California  State  Library  has  been 
designated  as  one  of  the  centers  to  receive 
the  books  printed  from  this  appropriation. 
Many  titles  have  been  received  and  are 
reported  currently  in  the  list  of  books 
added  with  the  note  that  they  are  pro- 
vided by  the  United  States  government 
through  the  Library  of  Congress. 

The  first  book  was  loaned  June  13, 
1905.  There  are  now  3347  blind  bor- 
rowers, 31  borrowers  having  been  added 
during  October,  November  and  Decem- 
ber. Total  accessions  are  35,086,  as  fol-

3616  ;  Revised  Braille  4620 ;  Line  0 ;  Ink

Home  Teaching 

Kate  M.  Foley,  home  teacher  of  the 
blind,  is  at  the  Argyle  Apartments,  146 
McAllister  street,  San  Francisco,  every 
Thursday  from  9  a.m.  to  5  p.m.  Her 
telephone  number  is  Market  0690.  She 
gives  lessons  regularly  in  the  bay  region 
and  the  Santa  Clara  Valley,  with  occa- 
sional trips-  to  other  parts  of  the  State. 
Catharine  J.  Morrison,  home  teacher  of 
the  blind,  is  at  the  Los  Angeles  County 
Free  Library,  Broadway  Annex,  Hall  of 
Records,  the  first  Wednesday  of  each 
month.  Her  home  address  is  951  S.  Ken- 
more  ave.,  Los  Angeles.  Her  telephone 
number  is  Fitzroy  3251.  She  gives  les- 
sons regularly  in  Los-  Angeles  and  vi- 
cinity and  makes  occasional  trips  to  San 
Diego. 

From  October  1  to  December  31,  home 
teachers  gave  571  lessons  in  the  homes  of 
the  blind  and  11  lessons  in  libraries. 
They  made  213  visits  and  calls  in  connec- 
tion with  the  work  for  purposes  other 
than  giving  lessons,  and  have  received 
75  visits  in  connection  with  the  work. 

During  the  quarter  Miss  Foley  and 
Miss  Morrison  spent  316  hours  on  cor- 
respondence1 and  preparing  lessons.     They 


wrote  431  letters  and  260  postals  and 
received  303  letters  and  101  postals. 
They  also  answered  and  made  559  tele- 
phone calls.  They  made  4  addresses. 
Miss  Foley,  as  usual,  taught  the  writing 
of  Braille  to  classes  of  seeing  people  in 
Oakland,  in  Alameda  and  in  San  Fran- 
cisco. She  spent  11  hours  in  proof  read- 
ing hand  copied  books.  The  various  other 
activities  in  connection  with  the  work  of 
the  home  teachers  can  not  easily  be  tabu- 
lated.

CALIFORNIA    SECTION 

Caroline      Wenzel,      Supervising      Li- 
brarian. 

The  California  Section  aims  to  have  a 
thoroughly  good  collection  of  books  on  the 
history  and  description,  resources  and 
industries  of  the  State,  as  well  as  the 
works  of  California  authors  in  all  depart- 
ments of  literature.  These  are  made  ac- 
cessible by  means  of  a  card  catalog.  Full 
names  and  biographical  sketches  of  Cali- 
fornia authors,  artists,  musicians,  pio- 
neers and  early  settlers  are  being  secured, 
together  with  their  photographs.  The  col- 
lection of  bound  periodicals  is  quite  large. 
The  section  also  contains  over  13,000 
bound  volumes  of  newspapers,  a  file  of 
which  is  being  indexed  with  reference  to 
the  history  of  the  State.  Students  will 
be  assisted  in  their  work.

Newspaper    Index 
The     index     covers     the     period     from 
August  15,  1846,  to  date. 

Catalog 

323  cards  have  been  added  to  the  Cali- 
fornia catalog  during  the  last  quarter. 

Pioneer   Museum 
Owing    to    our    decreased    budget,    the 
pioneer  museum  has  been  closed  for  an 
indefinite  period. 

PRINTS   SECTION 

Beetha  S.  Taylor,  Librarian. 

The  Prints  Section  has  been  established 
only  since  the  new  State  Library  building 
was  occupied  in  August,  1928.  In  it  are 
kept  the  prints  acquired  by  the  State  Li- 
brary for  several  years  past  and  now  for 
the  first  time  suitably  housed  and  dis- 
played. In  display  cases  can  be  shown 
about  fifty  prints  at  a  time  and  exhibits 
are  constantly  maintained.  Visitors  are 
invited. 

One  print  was  added  by  gift  during  the 
last  quarter,  making  the  total  number  of 
prints  3147. 

In  January  selections  from  the  annual 
exhibit  of  the  California  Society  of 
Etchers  were  shown  in  the  Prints  Room. 
The  exhibit  in  February  was  a  one-man 
show  of  linoleum  prints  in  color  by 
William  Seltzer  Rice  of  Oakland.  Dur- 
ing March  Mexican  engravings  and  litho- 
graphs from  the  State  Library  collection 
were  exhibited.  In  connection  with  this 
show  an  annotated  catalog  was  prepared 
which  made  the  exhibit  doubly  interest- 
ing, as  it  is  difficult  to  find  information 
about  these  Mexican  artists  in  the  usual 
sources. 

There  were  850  visitors  to  the  Prints 
Room  during  these  three  months. 

BOOKS   FOR  THE   BLIND   SECTION 

Mabel  R.  Gillis,  in  charge. 

Embossed  books  in  the  various  types 
are  sent  to  any  blind  resident  in  Cali- 
fornia upon  application.  Circular  and 
finding  list,  with  Call  slip  postal,  will  be 
sent  on  request.  Writing  appliances  and 
games  for  the  blind  are  loaned  as  samples 
to  those  wishing  to  buy  such  articles,  so 
that  the  different  kinds  can  be  tried  be- 
fore they  are  ordered.  Addresses  of  firms 
supplying  all  articles  loaned  will  be  fur- 
nished on  request. 

Books  sent  to  individuals  from  an  in- 
stitution distributing  embossed  literature 
are  carried  free  through  the  mails. 


Embossed  catalogs  of  the  earlier  mate- 
rial in  American  Braille,  Moon,  and  New 
York  point  are  available.  They  will  be 
loaned  to  borrowers  wishing  them  for  use 
in  book  selection. 

A  catalog  of  all  books  in  Moon  type  in 
the  Library  up  to  October  1,  1926%  and 
one  including  all  books  in  Braille  up  to 
April  1,  1927,  will  be  sent  to  anyone 
requesting  it. 

The  State  Library  will  be  glad  to  have 
borrowers  who  care  to  do  so  write  any 
letters  or  requests  for  books  to  the  Li- 
brary in  Braille  or  New  York  point. 

Attention  of  the  borrowers  is  drawn  to 
the  fact  that  books  for  return  to  the  Li- 
brary should  always  be  placed  inside 
mail  boxes  and  not  left  on  top  of  them. 

Again  we  request  borrowers  not  to 
send  post  card  receipts  or  requests  to  the 
Library  inside  of  books.  Wben  books  are 
returned  they  often  go  out  very  quickly 
again  and  the  pages  are  not  opened  up 
one  by  one.  Therefore,  a  request  sent  in 
that  way  can  very  easily  be  lost  for  many 
months.  The  post  cards  should  be  sent  in 
the  mail  separately. 

Books  may  be  kept  one  month.  At  the 
end  of  that  period  they  will  be  renewed  on 
request  unless  the  demand  for  them  is  so 
great  that  renewal  is  not  feasible. 

At  the  1931  session  of  Congress  an  an- 
nual appropriation  of  $100,000  was  made 
for  providing  books  for  adult  blind.  This 
work  is  handled  by  the  Library  of  Con- 
gress with  the  books  printed  at  or  pur- 
chased from  various  printing  houses. 
The  California  State  Library  has  been 
designated  as  one  of  the  centers  to  receive 
the  books  printed  from  this  appropriation. 
Many  titles  have  been  received  and  are 
reported  currently  in  the  list  of  books 
added  with  the  note  that  they  are  pro- 
vided by  the  United  States  government 
through  the  Library  of  Congress. 

The  first  book  was  loaned  June  13, 
1905.  There  are  now  3381  blind  bor- 
rowers, 34  borrowers  having  been  added 
during  January,  February  and  March. 
Total  accessions  are  35,703,  as  fol- 
lows :  New  York  point  books  2945 ;  New 
York  point  music  188 ;  American  Braille 
books  3146 ;  American  Braille  music 
1289 ;  European  Braille  books  4593 ;

lows :    New    York    point    29 ;    American

Home  Teaching 

Kate  M.  Foley,  home  teacher  of  the 
blind,  is  at  the  Argyle  Apartments,  146 
McAllister  street,  San  Francisco,  every 
Thursday  from  9  a.m.  to  5  p.m.  Her 
telephone  number  is  Market  0690.  She 
gives  lessons  regularly  in  the  bay  region 
and  the  Santa  Clara  Valley,  with  occa- 
sional trips  to  other  parts  of  the  State. 
Catharine  J.  Morrison,  home  teacher  of 
the  blind,  is  at  the  Los  Angeles  County 
Free  Library,  Broadway  Annex,  Hall  of 
Records,  the  first  Wednesday  of  each 
month.  Her  home  address  is  951  S. 
Kenmore  ave.,  Los  Angeles.  Her  tele- 
phone number  is  Fitzroy  3251.  She 
gives  lessons  regularly  in  Los  Angeles 
and  vicinity  and  makes  occasional  trips 
to  San  Diego. 

From  January  1  to  March  31,  home 
teachers  gave  627  lessons  in  the  homes  of 
the  blind  and  12  lessons  in  libraries. 
They  made  184  visits  and  calls  in  connec- 
tion with  the  work  for  purposes  other 
than  giving  lessons,  and  have  received 
89  visits  in  connection  with  the  work. 

During  the  quarter  Miss  Foley  and 
Miss  Morrison  spent  332  hours  on  cor- 
respondence and  preparing  lessons.  They 
wrote  452  letters  and  278  postals  and 
received  302  letters  and  103  postals. 
They  also  answered  and  made  588  tele-

Miss  Foley,  as  usual,  taught  the  writing 
of  Braille  to  classes  of  seeing  people  in 
Oakland,  in  Alameda  and  in  San  Fran- 
cisco. She  spent  44  hours  in  proof  read- 
ing hand  copied  books.  The  various  other 
activities  in  connection  with  the  work  of 
the  home  teachers  can  not  easily  be  tabu- 
lated.

PRIVATE  PRESSES  AND  FINE  PRINTERS  OF  CALIFORNIA* 

By  Carl  I.  Wheat 


When  Miss  Britton  asked  me  to  address 
this  convention  I  suggested  that  I  might 
j  possibly  palm  off  upon  you  something 
I  of  an  historical  character  that  I  had 
1  tried  out  on  other  audiences.  But  she 
j  wanted  something  less  musty — something 
j  about  books  and  printers.  I  at  first 
j  pleaded  ignorance  of  the  subject,  but  at 
j  length  suggested  as  a  topic :  "Some  Un- 
j  printable  Facts  About  California's  Fine 
j  Printers."  She  looked  at  me  a  bit  dubi- 
]  ously,  and  reminded  me  that  there  would 
]  be  ladies  present.  I  shall  therefore  do 
j  my  best  to  insult  no  printers  and  to 
j  shock  no  ladies,  though  I  must  confide  in 
I  you  the  fact  that  no  less  a  pair  of  per- 
1  sonages  than  the  State  Librarian  and  the 
1  Los  Angeles  City  Librarian  have  both 
{  expressed  their  regret  at  the  change  of 
subject,  and  I  have  been  urged  to  accord  a 
private  audience  to  a  selected  group  before 
I  the  close  of  the  convention.  I  shall  do 
I  so  at  midnight  on  Saturday  evening  on 
1    the  summit  of  Mt.  Wilson. 

I    think    I    ought    to    tell    you    that, 

I   although  I  have  had  the  pleasure  of  an 

j    acquaintance    of    some    years    with    most 

of  the  men  of  whose  work  I  shall  speak, 

I    admit    freely — I    even    boast — that    I 

really    know    little    about    either    private 

I    presses    or    fine    printing.       The     Hoax, 

therefore,    which    I    am    about    to   perpe- 

|   trate  upon  you,  is  of  Miss  Britton's  own 

;.   making,    and    I    warn    you    to    hold    her 

\   responsible.     It  is  notorious  that  we  law- 

■    yers  are  thus  frequently   called  upon  to 

I   advance  strange  causes. 

A  private  press,  as  I  shall  use  the  term, 
[  refers  to  a  wholly  personal,  wholly  non- 
i  commercial  enterprise,  engaged  in  as  an 
j  avocation,  usually  by  one  who  is  not  a 
•  professional  printer,  for  the  mere  pleasure 
|   of  the  doing.     Excellence  of  results — as 

isuch — is  unimportant  when  we  consider 
the  private  press.  It  is  the  spirit  behind 
the  work  that  counts,  rather  than  the 
quality  or  lack  of  it,  as  printing.  But 
j  while  his  work  is  noncommercial  in  char- 
'  acter,  the  private  printer  may,  on  occa- 
;   sion.  market  his  products,  to  help  defray 


expense,  if  the  marketing  remains  purely 
incidental  to  the  effort  itself. 

A  fine  printer,  on  the  other  hand,  is 
one  whose  work  has  been  recognized  as 
outstanding  by  those  who  are  qualified 
by  taste  and  background  to  judge  of  such 
matters.  This  is  a  problem  in  aesthetics, 
and  for  that  reason  no  exact  or  positive 
definition  is  possible.  Let  us  get  at  it 
by  a  process  of  elimination. 

Fine  printing  is  not  distinguishable  by 
its  size — for  some  of  the  worst  of  printed 
books  are  grandiose,  overgrown  affairs. 
It  is  not  a  matter  of  the  use  of  color 
or  brass  rule — for  much  atrocious  printing 
boasts  these  factors.  It  is  not  mere  press- 
work  ;  for  all  good  printing  must  have 
that.  It  is  not  mere  spacing,  or  some 
peculiar  type,  or  some  particular  kind  of 
paper.  It  is  not  the  use  of  strange 
devices  or  the  affectation  of  a  deckle  edge. 
And  emphatically  it  is  not  the  mere  limi- 
tation of  the  number  of  copies  printed, 
for  the  so-called  "Limited  Edition"  may 
or  may  not  be  fine  printing.  Usually  it 
is  what  a  recent  writer  has  termed  "so 
much  mere  boobybait." 

To  the  layman  the  very  term  "fine 
printing"  is  a  bit  unintelligible.  A  busi- 
ness acquaintance  of  mine  recently  stopped 
me  on  the  street  to  remark  that  he  under- 
stood I  was  interested  in  fine  printing. 
"I'm  anxious  to  locate  some,"  he  said. 
"Maybe  you  can  help  me.  My  eyes  have 
been  troubling  me  lately  and  my  doctor 
suggests  that  I  look  up  something  set 
in  the  tiniest  type  I  can  find  and  read 
for  ten  minutes  every  day  the  very  finest 
printing  I  can  find.  Haven't  you  some 
fine  printing  you  can  loan  me?"  I 
assured  him  that  my  kind  of  "fine  print- 
ing" and  his  had  nothing  in  common,  and 
we  went  our  several  ways.  But  if  fine 
printing —  your  kind  and  mine — is  inde- 
finable and  elusive,  it  may  yet  be  recog- 
nized by  those  who  seek  it.  And  because 
of  this,  let  me  first  discuss  the  fine  print- 
ers of  California,  leaving  the  private 
presses  until  later.

[July,  1934 


bibliography,  and  I  have  brought  no  sam- 
ples with  me.  I  shall  merely  present  a 
few  purely  personal  reactions  to  the  men 
whom  I  have  happened  to  know  in  this 
field.  When  we  speak  of  "fine  printers'' 
we  at  once  think  of  William  Morris  and 
of  the  revival  of  printing  for  which  he 
was  so  largely  responsible.  We  can  not 
look  upon  the  magnificent  productions  of 
the  Kelmscott  Press  without  coming 
under  his  spell.  And  we  also  think  of 
Cobden-Sanderson  and  Emery  Walker  and 
David  Berkeley,  Updike  and  Carl  Puring- 
ton  Rollins  and  Bruce  Rogers — to  men- 
tion only  a  few  of  the  apostles  of  this 
rebirth  of  taste  and  workmanship  which 
began  with  Morris. 

Here  on  the  Pacific  coast  we  have  a 
unique  group  of  men  worthy  to  be  named 
in  the  same  breath  with  these  masters.  I 
refer,  of  course,  primarily  to  Edwin 
Grabhorn  and  John  Henry  Nash,  but 
there  are  others  also — as  we  shall  see. 

Edwin  Grabhorn,  in  my  estimation, 
must  come  first  in  any  such  considera- 
tion of  California's  fine  printers.  In  his 
tiny  shop  in  San  Francisco,  he  and  his 
brother  Robert  have  turned  out,  a  few 
pages  at  a  time,  some  of  the  truly  great 
masterpieces  of  modern  printing.  Who. 
indeed,  can  look  upon  his-  "Leaves  of 
Grass,"  his  "Santa  Fe  Trail,"  his  "Letter 
of  Amerigo  Vespucci,"  his  "Voyages  and 
Travels  of  Sir  John  Maundeville,"  or  his 
dainty  "Book  of  Ruth"  without  a  thrill? 
Ed  Grabhorn  is  what  the  biologist  would 
term  a  "sport,"  a  wholly  unpredictable 
genius.  His  work  has  a  bold,  yet  an 
elusive  quality,  and  seemingly  everything 
he  touches — down  to  the  smallest  and 
most  ephemeral  item — becomes  in  his 
hands  a  thing  of  beauty.  Who  save  him 
would  have  dared  to  print  Oscar  Wilde's 
"Salome"  in  a  sans-serif  type?  Who  else 
would  have  dreamed  that  title  page  of 
the  "Santa  Fe  Trail,"  and  then  been  able 
to  put  it  into  execution? 

I  spent  last  Sunday  evening  with  Ed 
Grabhorn  talking  of  early  California.  He 
is  one  of  the  leading  enthusiasts  in  this 
field,  and  during  the  past  few  years  has 
been  turning  more  and  more  in  this  direc- 
tion for  the  subject-matter  of  his  efforts. 
His  recently  completed  series  of  ten 
reprints  of  rare  early  western  books  is 
now  being  followed  by  a  series  of  five 
even  more  finely-conceived  volumes.      On 


the  press  now  is  "Old  Block's  Sketch 
Book,"  of  which  sixteen  pages  have  been 
completed.  It  will  be  a  book  of  great 
interest,  both  to  lovers  of  fine  printing 
and  to  collectors  of  items  dealing  with 
the  early  west.  There,  in  his  little  print- 
ing office,  these  things  are  being  given 
life  and  beauty  in  the  hands  of  this  great, 
yet  simple  and  wholly  unassuming  mas- 
ter. Small  wonder  that  George  W.  Jones, 
himself  one  of  the  leading  fine  printers 
of  England,  should  recently  have  spoken 
of  the  Grabhorns  as  "the  greatest  printers 
in  the  world  today."  Emphatically,  the 
Grabhorn  books  are  books  to  be  read. 
Ed  Grabhorn  strives  at  no  grandiose 
effects,  and  while  much  of  his  work  has 
harked  back  in  spirit  to  the  master  efforts 
of  the  earliest  period  of  printing,  he  is  not 
a  mere  "period  printer."  He  is,  indeed, 
one  of  those  rare  mutations — one  who 
instinctively  strikes  out  for  a  goal  which 
no  mere  training  nor  ambition  can  render 
attainable  to  the  ordinary  run  of  men. 

Next  to  Grabhorn  we  must  unquestion- 
ably place  John  Henry  Nash.  Here, 
however,  we  shall  find  differences  of 
opinion.  Primarily  Nash  differs  from 
Grabhorn  in  the  cold  excellence  of  his 
work,  as  compared  with  the  warm  and 
human  qualities  of  Grabhorn's  beautiful 
pages.  Nash  has  been  criticized  because 
of  a  somewhat  apparent  striving  for  effect, 
and  some  critics  have  urged  that  he  is  a 
master  of  brass  rule  alone.  I  believe, 
however,  that  the  dispassionate  observer 
must  admit  that  he  is  also  very  much 
of  a  genius.  And  this  is  peculiarly  true 
in  respect  to  the  books  which  he  has 
himself  set  into  type.  At  the  case  he  is 
a  master  craftsman,  and  he  has  never 
forgotten  the  advice  given  him  many  years 
ago  by  that  other  great  American  printer, 
Theodore  De  Vinne,  who  urged  him  never 
to  lose  his  intimate  touch  with  the  tools 
of  his  trade. 

Aside  from  the  beautiful  books  which 
Mr.  Nash  has  made  for  William  Andrews 
Clark,  his  most  notable  effort  has  been 
his  printing  of  Professor  Anderson's 
translation  of  Dante,  in  four  large  vol- 
umes on  specially  made  paper,  bound  in 
Germany  in  full  vellum.  Perhaps  it  is 
the  very  magnificence  of  this  tour  de 
force  which  renders  it  to  me  a  bit  cold. 
I  like  better,  personally,  his  printing  of 
Boccaccio's    "Life    of    Dante."    which    he 


vol.  29,  no.  3]         private  presses  and  fine  printers 


95 


did  some  years  ago  for  distribution  among 
his  friends,  and  which  has  now  become  a 
rare  and  much  sought-for  volume. 

Perhaps  it  is  his  familiarity  with  early 
printed  books  which  renders  Mr.  Nash 
partial  to  the  folio.  Whatever  it  may  be, 
he  runs  naturally  to  large  page  sizes. 
But  his  versatility  is  disclosed  in  the  two 
lovely  little  volumes  which  he  printed  for 
Albert  Bender  of  San  Francisco,  in  mem- 
ory of  Anne  Bremer,  the  artist. 

Like  Grabhorn,  Nash  has  done  much  of 
his  best  work  for  the  Book  Club  of  Cali- 
fornia, that  unique  group  of  booklovers 
which  centers  in  San  Francisco.  He  has 
also  printed  many  commercial  pieces  of 
an  ephemeral  nature  for  various  business 
houses.  Perhaps  as  genuinely  pleasing 
as  any  of  his  efforts  was  his  printing  of 
Henry  L.  Bullen's  "Nicholas  Jenson,"  in 
which — as  a  recent  critic  has  said — he  has 
attained  "a  quality  of  simplicity  and 
restraint  not  found  in  the  majority  of  his 
books."  He  is  now  at  work  on  a  render- 
ing of  the  Vulgate  Bible,  which  he  hopes 
will  be  his  monument,  much  as  the  great 
"Chaucer"  is  the  monument  of  William 
Morris. 

We  can  not  leave  the  fine  printers  of 
San  Francisco  without  mention  of  the 
Johnson  Brothers,  James  and  Cecil,  who 
possess  the  true  spirit  of  the  old-time 
craftsmen,  and  who  have  demonstrated 
their  ability  in  a  number  of  books  pub- 
lished under  the  name  of  the  "Windsor 
Press."  Helen  Gentry,  John  Johnck, 
Lawton  Kennedy  and  Taylor  &  Taylor 
are  also  doing  remarkable  work  in  the 
Bay  region.  Kennedy's  efforts  on  the 
Quarterly  of  the  California  Historical 
Society  deserve  special  notice,  and  Tay- 
lor &  Taylor  are  outstanding,  though 
their  work  is  almost  wholly  commercial 
in  character.  They  have  demonstrated 
that  a  catalogue  can  be  made  a  work  of 
art  in  the  hands  of  printers  of  real  under- 
standing. 

South  of  the  Tehachapi  "fine  printers" 
are  fewer  than  in  the  north.  Yet  we 
should  not  forget  the  excellent  work  which 
is  being  done  by  Bruce  McAllister,  who 
was,  I  believe,  the  first  local  printer  to 
have  a  book  accepted  among  the  "Fifty 
Books  of  the  Tear"  by  the  American 
Institute  of  Graphic  Arts.  McAllister 
has  printed  two  excellent  books  in  collab- 
oration with  Jake  Zeitlin,  the  bookseller, 


one  a  translation  of  "Bine  Blume  aus  den 
Goldene  Lande  oder  Los  Angeles,"  and 
the  other  Sarah  Bixby  Smith's  charming 
"Adobe  Days."  While  McAllister's  work 
can  hardly  be  said  to  possess  the  out- 
standing qualities  of  either  Nash  or  Grab- 
horn,  he  has  done  and  is  doing  the  sort 
of  printing  which  we  recognize  at  once 
as  of  high  calibre.  Along  with  him  must 
be  placed  T.  E.  Williams  of  the  Santa 
Ana  Junior  College,  some  of  whose  recent 
work  ranks  well  with  anything  which  has 
been  produced  in  southern  California. 

Ward  Ritchie  once  came  to  Zeitlin  and 
confessed  that,  while  he  knew  nothing  of 
the  art,  he  yearned  and  hankered  mightily 
to  be  a  printer.  He  hired  the  use  of  a 
commercial  print  shop  on  Sundays,  when 
the  regular  printers  were  at  the  beach, 
and  acquired  the  rudiments.  Later  he 
spent  some  time  in  Europe,  visiting  the 
master  printers  of  England  and  the  Con- 
tinent, and  spending  a  period  at  work  in 
the  shop  of  that  tremendous  genius, 
Schmied  of  Paris.  Since  returning  to 
Los  Angeles,  Ritchie  has  become  asso- 
ciated with  Zeitlin  and  two  others  in  the 
"Primavera  Press,"  whose  books  he  will 
print. 

Another  printer  whose  name  should  be 
mentioned  is  Thomas  Perry  Stryker, 
whose  printing  of  Grapewin's  "The  Town 
Pump"  was  among  "the  Fifty  Books  of 
1933." 

Saul  Marks,  who  operates  "The  Plantin 
Press,"  seems  to  have  a  future  as  a 
printer.  He  set  the  type  for  "A  Gil  Bias 
in  California,"  recently  published  by 
Zeitlin,  and  he  has  done  a  number  of 
attractive  smaller  items. 

There  are  others,  no  doubt,  who  deserve 
mention  among  the  "fine  printers"  of  the 
West.  But  those  whom  I  have  mentioned 
form  a  notable  group.  A  few  years  ago 
someone  wrote  of  "The  California  School 
of  Printing,"  and  attributed  the  tendency 
of  many  of  our  printers  toward  so-called 
"period  printing"  to  the  salubrity  of  our 
climate,  which  was  supposed  in  some 
fashion  to  have  carried  them  back  in 
spirit  to  the  master  period  of  the  incuna- 
bulae.  I  can  not  agree,  either  as  to  the 
effects  of  the  climate  or  the  existence  of 
the  alleged  "school."  If  you  were  to 
gather  together  a  representative  group  of 
the  works  of  all  these  men,  you  would 
find  no  such  similarity  of  style  or  treat-

ment  as  would  merit  their  classification 
in  a  single  "school."  Their  work  is  as 
varied  as  are  their  varying  backgrounds, 
and  if  the  term  "The  California  School" 
means  anything  at  all,  it  signifies  only 
the  common  striving  after  beauty  and 
vital  excellence  which  dignifies  the  work 
of  each  of  these  men. 

And  now  for  the  "Private  Presses."  I 
have  been  greatly  aided  in  preparing  this 
phase  of  my  paper  by  the  courtesy  of  Mr. 
Sam  Farquhar  of  the  University  of  Cali- 
fornia Press,  who  courteously  sent  me  a 
copy  of  the  proof  of  Miss  Louise  F.  Barr's 
new  book  "Presses  of  Northern  California 
and  Their  Books,"  now  being  printed  by 
the  Book  Arts  Club  of  Berkeley.  In  my 
opinion,  no  library  which  attempts  in  any 
way  to  cover  this  subject  can  afford  to 
pass  up  this  book.  And  my  enthusiasm 
is  naturally  not  greatly  lessened  by  the 
pleasant  little  comment  which  Miss  Barr 
makes  anent  "The  Wheatstalk  Press." 

In  the  north  private  presses  flourish 
in  considerable  abundance.  Miss  Rosa- 
lind E.  Keep  of  Mills  College  boasts  a 
Colt  Armory  press  of  her  own,  and  on 
it  she  prints  the  productions  of  "The  Euca- 
lyptus Press" — she  and  her  three  assist- 
ants being  jointly  known  about  the 
college  as  "The  Four  Horsewomen  of  the 
Eucalyptus." 

Palo  Alto  has  a  veritable  plethora  of 
private  presses — even  though  the  "Wheat- 
stalk"  has  removed  to  parts  unknown. 
Edwin  C.  and  Dorothy  J.  Starks  operated, 
until  Professor  Starks'  death  in  1932, 
the  "Old  Garret  Press,"  for  the  printing 
of  accounts  of  his  travels.  "The  House 
of  Huntington"  consists  of  Tuley  F. 
Huntington  and  a  Chandler  &  Price  hand 
press,  on  which  he  has  printed  three 
books  and  some  leaflets.  Nathan  van 
Patten  boasts  no  actual  press,  but  has 
put  out  several  items  under  the  imprint 
of  "The  Terba  Buena  Press."  And  Hart- 
ley Jackson  has  operated  under  so  many 
names  that  I  hesitate  to  credit  the  tale. 

In  Berkeley  there  is  not  only  the  Book 
Arts  Club,  of  which  Sam  Farquhar  is  the 
mentor,  but  your  own  members  Tom 
and  Barbara  Cowles  have  brought  forth 
several  small  items  on  their  "Church- 
mouse  Press." 

Then  there  is  the  "Press  in  the  Forest" 
of  Jacob  W.  Wright,  at  Carmel,  and 
Hugh  A.  Studdert  Kennedy's  "Farallon 
Press"  at  San  Francisco. 


The  work  of  the  late  Thomas  C.  Russell 
was  in  a  sense  "private"  and  in  a  sense 
commercial.  It  was  not  "fine  printing," 
though  Mr.  Russell  prided  himself  highly 
upon  his  standards  of  craftsmanship,  and 
once  confided  to  me  that  "John  Henry 
Nash  doesn't  know  the  first  principles  of 
printing — no  sir,  not  even  the  first  princi- 
ples." Russell  was  a  strange  character, 
but  a  capable  artisan,  and  I  understand 
that  the  State  Library  is  to  be  credited 
with  suggesting  to  him  most  of  the  early 
California  titles  which  he  reprinted. 

I  can  not  refrain  from  pausing  here 
to  pay  a  tribute  to  that  great  library, 
over  which  Miss  Mabel  Gillis  so  ably 
presides.  While  most  of  my  own  work 
has  been  done  in  its  California  Depart- 
ment, under  the  helpful  guidance  of  Miss 
Eudora  Garoutte  and  later  of  Miss  Caro- 
line Wenzel,  I  know  that  the  same  excel- 
lence is  maintained  throughout  the  organi- 
zation. A  mere  aggregation  of  books  is 
not  a  library ;  it  is  the  human  and  the 
understanding  touch  that  transforms  it. 
If,  as  is  said,  Mark  Hopkins  on  one  end 
of  a  log  and  a  student  on  the  other  was  a 
University,  then  I  feel  sure  that  Miss 
Gillis.  or  any  of  her  assistants,  and  *  a 
couple  of  books  would  be  a  library — a 
thing  which  no  mere  mass  of  books  or 
even  the  greatest  collection  of  rarities 
could  ever  become  withoiit  that  element 
of  personality.  It  is  always  a  pleasure 
to  be  able  to  render  homage  to  such  an 
institution,  and  I  feel  a  just  pride  in  the 
work  and  accomplishments  of  our  State 
Library. 

Of  the  private  printers  of  southern 
California  the  late  Arthur  Ellis  was  the 
patriarch.  He  it  was  who  interested 
most  of  us  in  this  fascinating  field.  He 
made  no  claims  to  artistic  excellence,  yet 
the  products  of  his  Colt  Armory  press  are 
comfortable  to  look  upon,  and  what  is 
more,  are  valuable  for  their  content.  One 
of  Ellis'  first  efforts  was  the  reprinting 
of  Hugo  Reid's  celebrated  work  on  "The 
Indians  of  Los  Angeles  County."  Reid, 
an  Englishman  who  married  the  daugh- 
ter of  a  Gabrieleno  Chief,  published  his 
essay  in  installments  in  the  Los  Angeles 
Star  in  1852,  and  since  then  it  had  never 
been  reprinted  in  full.  Ellis  recognized 
its  great  ethnological  importance,  and  his 
little  reprint  has  become  widely  known. 
He  founded  the  Zamorano  Club,  named 
after  California's  first  printer,  and  gath-

ered  about  him  a  notable  group  of  book 
lovers.  Just  before  his  untimely  death 
he  had  completed  printing  the  text  of 
Cave  Couts'  journal  of  his  trip  from  San 
Diego  to  the  Colorado  in  1879,  which  was 
later  brought  out  as  a  memorial  to  him 
by  the  Zamorano  Club. 

Among  those  whom  Ellis  assisted  in 
the  way  of  printing  was  Gregg  Anderson, 
who  printed  a  number  of  small  but  highly 
individual  items,  chiefly  poetry,  before 
leaving  for  a  year  with  the  Grabhorns 
and  later  for  the  east,  where  he  is  now 
at  work. 

Roland  Baughman  of  the  Huntington 
Library  staff  has  recently  joined  the  ranks 
of  local  private  printers.  He  has  a  small 
hand  press,  and  though  he  has  only 
started,  he  has  done  some  excellent 
announcements  for  his  institution. 

Frank  Cushing,  a  retired  inventor, 
plays  at  printing  in  Los  Angeles.  I  have 
not  seen  any  of  his  work,  but  I  under- 
stand that  he  is  taking  his  hobby  with 
dangerous  seriousness. 

Grant  Dahlstrom,  typographer  for 
Young  and  McAllister,  now  operates 
Arthur  Ellis'  press,  under  the  name  of 
"The  Ampersand  Press."  He  is  at  pres- 
ent printing  a  book  of  poems  by  Rolf 
Hoffmann,  Professor  of  German  at  the 
University  of  California  at  Los  Angeles. 

Jake  Zeitlin  once  operated  a  small  hand 
press,  which  is,  however,  at  present  in  a 
state  of  suspended  animation.  He  and 
Dahlstrom  have  in  production  on  Ellis' 
press  an  unpublished  work  of  Heinrich 
Heine,  "The  Gods  in  Exile,"  for  which 
Paul  Jordan  Smith  has  written  an  intro- 


duction. Indeed,  after  Arthur  Ellis,  I 
believe  that  Jake  Zeitlin  deserves  particu- 
lar mention  in  connection  with  printing  in 
southern  California.  Jake,  whose  small 
but  highly  interesting  bookshop  is  well 
known  to  all  librarians,  has  been  inde- 
fatigable in  his  efforts  to  further  the 
cause  of  good  printing  in  this  area.  Just 
now  he  is  engaged,  with  Ward  Ritchie, 
Phil  Hanna  and  Carey.  MacWilliams,  in 
developing  "The  Primavera  Press."  I 
begged  of  him  a  few  of  the  beautiful  little 
announcements  of  that  enterprise,  and 
any  of  you  who  may  be  interested  may 
have  a  copy.  I  also  have  a  few  copies 
of  the  announcement  of  the  work  on 
Robinson  Jeffers  which  the  press  is  now 
bringing  out.  On  it  is  an  original  Rock- 
well Kent  initial  for  your  collections.  He 
tells  me  that  the  most  notable  achieve- 
ment of  the  Primaveras  was  the  printing 
of  a  little  book  by  Gladys  Dubois  called 
"Wives  Come  First,"  because  of  which 
she  was  chosen  to  prepare  the  lyrics  for 
Mae  West's  "I'm  No  Angel."  Truly,  no 
one  can  tell  where  private  press  activities 
may  end ! 

Perhaps  in  closing  I  should  remark 
that,  in  my  estimation,  the  budding  of  so 
many  private  printers  in  this  region  is 
not  really  as  terrifying  a  thing  as  it  might 
seem  at  first  blush.  They  are  compara- 
tively harmless,  and  Youth  must  have 
its  fling.  In  any  event,  few,  if  any,  of 
these  enthusiasts  will  make  the  other 
class,  try  as  they  may.  For  the  truly 
"fine  printer"  is  a  rare  animal.  By  their 
fruits,  indeed,  ye  shall  know  them.

Newspaper    Index 

The  index  covers  the  period  from 
August  15,  1846,  to  date. 

Catalog 

412  cards  have  been  added  to  the  Cali- 
fornia catalog  during  the  last  quarter. 

Pioneer    Museum 

Owing  to  our  decreased  budget,  the 
pioneer  museum  has  been  closed  for  an 
indefinite  period. 

PRINTS  SECTION 

Bertha  S.  Taylok,  Librarian. 

The  Prints  Section  has  been  established 
only  since  the  new  State  Library  building 
was  occupied  in  August,  1928.  In  it  are 
kept  the  prints  acquired  by  the  State  Li- 
brary for  several  years  past  and  now  for 
the  first,  time  suitably  housed  and  dis- 
played. In  display  cases  can  be  shown 
about  fifty  prints  at  a  time  and  exhibits 
are  constantly  maintained.  Visitors  are 
invited. 

Thirty-one  prints  were  added  by  gift 
during  the  last  quarter,  making  the  total 
number  of  prints  3178.  There  were  1280 
visitors  to  the  Prints  Room  during  these 
three  months.  The  increased  number  was 
largely  due  to  the  three-day  Know  Your 
Government  Open  House  in  May. 

Exhibits  for  the  quarter  were  as  fol- 
lows :  In  April  oil-wash  drawings  by 
Edith  Kinney  Stellman  of  San  Francisco, 
loaned  by  the  artist ;  in  May  drypoints 
by  Jeannette  Maxfield  Lewis  of  Fresno, 
loaned  by  the  artist ;  June,  etchings  and 
drypoints  by  Arthur  Millier  of  Los 
Angeles,  twenty-two  from  the  Library's 
collection  and  thirty-three  loaned  by  the 
artist. 

BOOKS    FOR   THE    BLIND    SECTION 

Mabel  R.  Gillis,  in  charge. 

Embossed  books  in  the  various  types 
are  sent  to  any  blind  resident  of  Cali- 
fornia upon  application.  Circular  and 
finding  list  with  Call  slip  postal,  will  be 
sent  on  request.  Writing  appliances  and 
games  for  the  blind  are  loaned  as  samples 
to  those  wishing  to  buy  such  articles,  so 
that  the  different  kinds  can  be  tried  be- 
fore they  are  ordered.  Addresses  of  firms 
supplying  all  articles  loaned  will  be  fur- 
nished on  request. 

Books  sent  to  individuals  from  an  in- 
stitution distributing  embossed  literature 
are  carried  free  through  the  mails. 

_  Embossed  catalogs  of  the  earlier  mate- 
rial in  American  Braille,  Moon,  and  New 

3 — 13236 


York  point  are  available.  They  will  be 
loaned  to  borrowers  wishing  them  for  use 
in  book  selection. 

A  catalog  of  all  books  in  Moon  type  in 
the  Library  up  to  October  1,  1926,  and 
one  including  all  books  in  Braille  up  to 
April  1,  1927,  will  be  sent  to  anyone 
requesting  it. 

The  State  Library  will  be  glad  to  have 
borrowers  who  care  to  do  so  write  any 
letters  or  requests  for  books  to  the  Li- 
brary in  Braille  or  New  York  point. 

Attention  of  the  borrowers  is  drawn  to 
the  fact  that  books  for  return  to  the  Li- 
brary should  always  be  placed  inside 
mail  boxes  and  not  left  on  top  of  them. 

Again  we  request  borrowers  not  to 
send  post  card  receipts  or  requests  to  the 
Library  inside  of  books.  When  books  are 
returned  they  often  go  out  very  quickly 
again  and  the  pages  are  not  opened  up 
one  by  one.  Therefore,  a  request  sent  in 
that  way  can  very  easily  be  lost  for  many 
months.  The  post  cards  should  be  sent  in 
the  mail  separately. 

Books  may  be  kept  one  month.  At  the 
end  of  that  period  they  will  be  renewed  on 
request,  unless  the  demand  for  them  is  so 
great  that  renewal  is  not  feasible. 

At  the  1931  session  of  Congress  an  an- 
nual appropriation  of  $100,000  was  made 
for  providing  books  for  adult  blind.  This 
work  is  handled  by  the  Library  of  Con- 
gress with  the  books  printed  at  or  pur- 
chased from  various  printing  houses. 
The  California  State  Library  has  been 
designated  as  one  of  the  centers  to  receive 
the  books  printed  from  this  appropriation. 
Many  titles  have  been  received  and  are 
reported  currently  in  the  list  of  books 
ndded  with  the  note  that  they  are  pro- 
vided by  the  United  States  government

Home    Teaching 

Kate  M.  Foley,  home  teacher  of  the 
blind,  is  at  the  Argyle  Apartments,  146 
McAllister  street,  San  Francisco,  every 
Thursday  from  9  a.m.  to  5  p.m.  Her 
telephone  number  is  Market  0690.  She 
gives  lessons  regularly  in  the  bay  region 
and  the  Santa  Clara  Valley,  with  occa- 
sional trips  to  other  parts  of  the  State. 
Catharine  J.  Morrison,  home  teacher  of 
the  blind,  is  at  the  Los  Angeles  County 
Free  Library,  Broadway  Annex,  Hall  of 
Records,  the  first  Wednesday  of  each 
month.  Her  home  address  is  951  S. 
Kenmore  ave.,  Los  Angeles.  Her  tele- 
phone number  is  Fitzroy  3251.  She 
gives  lessons  regularly  in  Los  Angeles 
and  vicinity  and  makes  occasional  trips 
to   San  Diego. 

From  April  1  to  June  30,  home 
teachers  gave  690  lessons  in  the  homes  of 
the  blind  and  22  lessons  in  libraries. 
They  made  188  visits  and  calls  in  connec- 
tion with  the  work  for  purposes  other 
than  giving  lessons,  and  have  received 
101  visits  in  connection  with  the  work. 

During  the  quarter  Miss  Foley  and 
Miss  Morrison  spent  386  hours  on  cor- 
respondence and  preparing  lessons.  They 
wrote  484  letters  and  283  postals  and 
received  317  letters  and  106  postals. 
They  also  answered  and  made  589  tele-

Miss  Foley,  as  usual,  taught  the  writing 
of  Braille  to  classes  of  seeing  people  in 
Oakland,  in  Alameda  and  in  San  Fran- 
cisco. She  spent  18  hours  in  proof  read- 
ing hand  copied  books.  The  various  other 
activities  in  connection  with  the  work  of 
the  home  teachers  can  not  easily  be  tabu- 
lated.

CALIFORNIA  LIBRARIES— ANNUAL  STATISTICS 


In  June  annual  report  blanks  were  sent  to  all  California  libraries 
listed.  Statistics  from  these  annual  reports  are  printed  in  this  issue. 
Except  when  otherwise  noted,  statistics  are  for  the  period  from  July  1, 
1933,  to  June  30,  1934. 

Branch  library  statistics  are  omitted  under  the  names  of  the 
various  branches.  They  are  included,  however,  in  the  general  figures 
given  under  the  main  library.  On  account  of  the  above,  high  school, 
public  and  other  libraries,  which  are  affiliated  with  a  county  free 
library,  show,  as  a  rule,  statistics  for  their  own  books  only  and  not  for 
county  service. 

In  order  to  keep  statistics  given  herein  consistent  with  figures  given 
by  the  State  Department  of  Education,  we  have  counted  all  districts 
in  a  union  district  as  separate  districts  in  "number  of  active  school 
districts  that  have  joined  county  libraries." 


All  libraries  are  listed  except  elemen- 
tary public  school  and  church  libraries 
and  those  which  belong  to  private  indi- 
viduals. They  are  arranged  alphabetically 
by  place  under  counties  and  counties  are 
arranged  alphabetically.  To  determine 
the  county  in  which  any  place  is  located 
see  list  following  these  introductory  para- 
graphs. This  list  includes  locations  of 
branch  libraries,  although  the  branches 
are  listed  only  under  the  main  library. 

Those  libraries  are  marked  with  an 
asterisk  (*)  which  are  not  free  to  the 
public  for  either  loan  or  reference  pur- 
poses. 

The  following  libraries  marked  with  i 
are  U.  S.  Depository  Libraries : 

Alturas,  Modoc  County  Library 

Berkeley,  University  of  California  Li- 
brary 

Claremont,  Pomona  College  Library

December  D 

In  order  that  the  figures  for  circulation 
may  be  uniform,  current  magazines  are 
included  in  the  total  whether  reported 
that  way  or  not. 

An  effort  is  made  to  have  the  statistics 
uniform  in  reference  to  number  of 
branches.  Any  distributing  point  through 
which  service  is  given  directly  from 
headquarters  is  counted  as  a  branch. 
For  example,  in  a  school  with  several 
classrooms,  if  service  is  given  directly  to 
each  classroom  separately,  each  room 
served  is  counted  as  a  branch.  If  a 
school  district  has  joined  and  both  school 
and  community  service  are  given  from  one 
location,  such  service  is  counted  as  two 
branches. 

Under  county  libraries  statistics  "school 
enrollment"  or  "average  daily  attendance" 
has  been  given  in  an  attempt  to  show 
more  accurately  the  number  of  users  of 
the  library.  Similarly  in  an  effort  to 
make  the  circulation  as  given  more  nearly 
correct,  some  county  libraries  count  the 
use  of  supplementary  books.  Where  this 
has  been  done,  the  figures  have  been 
given  with  an  explanation  of  how  the 
circulation  has  been  kept  or  estimated. 

There  are  in  California  46  county  free 
libraries ;  6  library  district  libraries ;  4 
union  high  school  district  libraries ;  146 
libraries  supported  by  city  taxation ;  61 
towns  or  districts  with  free  public  libra- 
ries that  are  included  in  county  free 
library  service  (28  under  Sec.  3,  7  under 
Sec.  4,  14  under  Sec.  16,  12  under  Pol.  C, 
Sec.  4041)  ;  67  law  libraries,  of  which  56 
are  county  law  libraries ;  5S  county 
teachers'  libraries ;  443  libraries  in  edu- 
cational institutions,  of  which  5  are  uni- 
versities, 12  colleges,  7  State  teachers  col- 
leges, 363  public  high  schools  and  junior 
colleges,  56  private  schools  and  other  in- 
stitutions ;  72  miscellaneous  institution 
libraries ;  51  association  or  society  libra- 
ries and  17  subscription  libraries.  In 
connection  with  the  above  libraries  are 
4406  branches   and  deposit  stations. 

There  are  335  library  buildings,  of 
which  179  were  gifts,  and  of  these  gifts 
142  are  from  Andrew  Carnegie. 


As  the  libraries  are  listed  under  coun- 
ties, the  following  alphabetical  list  by

LOS  ANGELES  CO.— Continued 

The  Lancaster  Branch  building  was 
built  and  is  owned  jointly  by  Los  Angeles 
Co.  Free  Library  and  the  Justice  Court 
of  Lancaster.  The  Inglewood  Public  Li- 
brary Building,  erected  at  a  cost  of 
$10,000,  is  a  Carnegie  gift  and  was  pre- 
sented to  Inglewood  in  1917.  The  $25,- 
000  Claremont  Branch  building  erected  on 
a  lot  given  by  Mrs.  Helen  Rennick,  was 
built  by  a  local  bond  issue  in  the  summer 
of  1928.  The  $40,000  Bruggemeyer  Memo- 
rial Library  building  at  Monterey  Park 
was  presented  to  the  City  of  Monterey 
Park  by  Judge  Mancha  Bruggemeyer, 
March  28,  1929.  The  $30,000  Monte- 
bello  Library  building,  owned  by  the  mu- 
nicipality, was  erected  by  a  bond  issue. 
Palos  Verdes  Branch  is  located  in  $60,000 
library  building  erected  by  Palos  Verdes 
Library  District. 

During  the  year  plans  were  submitted 
to  the  Federal  government  requesting  aid 
for  the  new  building  proposed  for  the 
Lancaster  Regional  Library  and  a  grant 
of  $2300  has  been  allowed,  but  the  work 
has  not  yet  been  started.  An  unsuc- 
cessful attempt  was  made  to  secure  Fed- 
eral aid  for  the  restoration  of  the  munici- 
pally owned  library  building  at  Compton, 
destroyed  by  the  earthquake  of  March  10, 
1933.  Success  met  the  efforts  made  for 
Federal  aid  in  the  rebuilding  of  the  Ingle- 
wood Library.  A  grant  of  $9000  was 
allowed ;  this  building  will  be  ready  for 
occupancy  about  December  1.  The  floor 
space  and  book  capacity  will  be  nearly 
double  that  of  the  former  building,  dam- 
aged by  the  earthquake  of  March  10,  1933. 

The  tax  rate  for  1934-35  is  .6  m.  on  the 
dollar,   which  will   raise   about  $229,824.

positions  and  all  from  outside  the  State 
who  wish  to  come  here.  Also  it  will  be 
glad  to  know  of  libraries  that  want  head 
librarians  or  assistants  in  any  branch  of 
their  work.  In  writing  for  recommenda- 
tions, libraries  are  urged  to  be  as  specific 
as  possible,  especially  in  regard  to  time 
positions  must  be  filled  and  salary  offered. 
A  librarian  who  wishes  to  be  dropped 
from  the  Employment  Bureau  list  and  a 
library  that  fills  a  position  for  which  it 
has  asked  a  recommendation  will  help  the

JENNIE   HERRMAN 

Before  this  number  of  News  Notes  of 
California  Libraries  went  to  press,  we 
received  word  of  the  death  of  Jennie  Herr- 
man  in  Santa  Cruz  on  October  22.  In 
1908  she  came  to  California  from  Ohio, 
where  she  had  been  on  the  staff  of  the 
Ohio  State  Library.  In  California  she 
soon  took  a  leading  part  in  the  county 
library  movement  and  was  the  first  li- 
brarian of  the  Tulare  County  Library, 
serving  from  June,  1910,  to  Jan.,  1913. 
She  then  became  librarian  of  the  newly 
established  San  Diego  County  Library, 
holding  that  position  until  September, 
1920.  In  1927  she  was  granted  a  county 
librarian's  life  certificate. 

Jennie  Herrman  did  outstanding  pio- 
neer work  in  the  county  library  field  and 
her  service  will  always  be  gratefully  re- 
membered  by  those  who  knew  her  and 
those  who  profited  by  her  intelligent  and 
devoted  interest  in  library   development.

fornia authors,  artists,  musicians,  pio« 
neers  and  early  settlers  are  being  secured, 
together  with  their  photographs.  The  col- 
lection of  bound  periodicals  is  quite  large. 
The  section  also  contains  over  13,000 
bound  volumes  of  newspapers,  a  file  of 
which  is  being  indexed  with  reference  to 
the  history  of  the  State'.  Students  will

PRINTS  SECTION 

Bertha  S.  Tayxoe,  Librarian. 

The  Prints  Section  has  been  established 
jonly  since  the  new  State  Library  building 

was  occupied  in  August,  1928.  In  it  are 
(kept  the  prints  acquired  by  the  State  Li- 
ibrary  for  several  years  past  and  now  for 
i  the  first  time  suitably  housed  and  dis- 
played. In  display  cases  can  be  shown 
ij  about  fifty  prints  at  a  time  and  exhibits 
fare  constantly  maintained.  Visitors  are 
I  invited. 

In    July   three   prints   by   Gene   Kloss 

were  received  from  the  Thirteenth 
j  Regional  Committee,  Public  Works  of 
{Art  Projects,  Santa  Fe,  New  Mexico,  on 
\  deposit.  These  prints  have  been  cata- 
logued as  usual,  but  since  the  title  re- 
gains with  the  Government  they  have 
\  not  been  accessioned  and  included  in 
^the  total  number  of  prints  belonging  to 
(the  Library. 

There  were  855  visitors  in  the  Prints 
(Room  during  this  quarter.  Exhibits  have 
ibeen  as  follows :  July,  etchings  of  sky- 
scrapers and  other  architectural  subjects

Children  of  Many  Nations,  from  the 
State  Library  collection,  prints  by  various

This  exhibit  was  held  over  through 
September. 

BOOKS   FOR  THE   BLIND   SECTION 

Mabetl  R.  Gnxis,  in  charge. 

Embossed  books  in  the  various  types 
are  sent  to  any  blind  resident  of  Cali- 
fornia upon  application.  Circular  and 
finding  list  with  Call  slip  postal,  will  be 
sent  on  request.  Writing  appliances  and 
games  for  the  blind  are  loaned  as  samples 
to  those  wishing  to  buy  such  articles,  so 
that  the  different  kinds  can  be  tried  be- 
fore they  are  ordered.  Addresses  of  firms 
supplying  all  articles  loaned  will  be  fur- 
nished on  request. 

Books  sent  to  individuals  from  an  in- 
stitution distributing  embossed  literature 
are  carried  free  through  the  mails. 

A  catalog  of  all  books  in  Moon  type  in 
the  Library  up  to  October  1,  1926,  and 
one  including  all  books  in  Braille  up  to 
April  1,  1927,  will  be  sent  to  anyone 
requesting  it.  News  Notes,  reprinted 
from  Neics  Notes  of  California  Libraries, 
carrying  a  list  of  additions  to  the  Library 
each  quarter,  is  sent  to  each  blind  reader. 

The  State  Library  will  be  glad  to  have 
borrowers  who  care  to  do  so  write  any 
letters  or  requests  for  books  to  the  Li- 
brary in  Braille  or  New  York  point. 

Attention  of  the  borrowers  is  drawn  to 
the  fact  that  books  for  return  to  the  Li- 
brary should  always  be  placed  inside 
mail  boxes  and  not  left  on  top  of  them. 

Again  we  request  borrowers  not  to 
send  post  card  receipts  or  requests  to  the 
Library  inside  of  books.  When  books  are 
returned  they  often  go  out  very  quickly 
again  and  the  pages  are  not  opened  up 
one  by  one.  Therefore,  a  request  sent  in 
that  way  can  very  easily  be  lost  for  many 
months.  The  post  cards  should  be  sent 
in  the  mail  separately. 

Borrowers  are  requested  neither  to 
turn  down  the  corners  of  pages  nor  to 
fold  over  the  page.  Places  should  be 
kept  by  some  sort  of  book-mark. 

Books  may  be  kept  one  month.  At  the 
end  of  that  period  they  will  be  renewed 
on  request  unless  the  demand  for  them  is 
so  great  that  renewal  is  not  feasible. 

At  the  1931  session  of  Congress  an  an- 
nual appropriation  of  $100,000  was  made 
for  providing  books  for  adult  blind.  This 
work  is  handled  by  the  Library  of  Con- 
gress with  the  books  printed  at  or  pur- 
chased from  various  printing  houses. 
The  California  State  Library  has  been 
designated  as  one  of  the  centers  to  receive 
the  books  printed  from  this  appropriation. 
Many  titles  have  been  received  and  are 
reported   currently   in   the   list   of  books

Talking    Books 

Talking  books  have  now  been  added  to 
the  State  Library  collection  of  material 
for  the  blind.  Like  books  in  Braille  or  | 
Moon  they  are  sent  through  the  mail 
postage  free.  They  are  provided  to  desig- 
nated libraries  by  the  Library  of  Congress 
from  federal  funds. 

Talking  books  must  be  used  on  record- 
ing machines  especially  designed  for  them. 
Such  machines  are  not  furnished  by  the 
Library  but  may  be  purchased  from  the 
American  Foundation  for  the  Blind,  125 
E.  46th  Street,  New  York  City.  Prices 
range  from  $20  to  $37.50.  Further  in- 
formation will  be  furnished  on  request. 
When  asking  for  a  talking  book  for  the 
first  time,  please  state  whether  or  not 
your  machine  has  already  been  received. 

Talking  books  should  be  handled  with 
the  greatest  care  and  returned  in  the 
same  boxes  in  which  they  are  received. 
The  address  tag  on  the  box  should  be 
turned  over  for  return.

REFERENCE  SECTION 

Betjlah   Mtjmm,    Supervising  Librarian. 

The  Reference  Section  furnishes  infor- 
mation to  any  inquirer.  It  furnishes 
books  to  public  libraries  on  request  of 
the  librarian,  ^nd  to  any  other  educa- 
tional institution  on  request  of  its  official 
head  or  its  librarian ;  to  individuals 
through  the  signature  of  a  State  officer, 
of  the  librarian  of  the  school  library  or 
of  the  official  head  of  any  other  educa- 
tional institution  or  on  receipt  of  a  $5.00 
deposit;  to  a  club  on  request  of  its  presi- 
dent, secretary  or  librarian. 

An  inventory  of  the  State  Library  col- 
lection is  now  being  taken  by  SERA 
workers.  The  bulk  of  the  work  is  in  the 
hands  of  a  professional  librarian,  Mrs. 
Rosa  Nicol,  a  graduate  of  the  University 
of  California  School  of  Librarianship. 
She  is  assisted  by  a  young  woman  who 
has  had  a  considerable  amount  of  varied 
library  experience.  Before  the  work  be- 
gan it  was  estimated  that  it  would  re- 
quire about  six  months  to  complete  the 
task.  Developments  indicate  that  this 
estimate  was  correct.  The  inventory 
does  not  include  the  law  and  documents 
sections.  The  work  was  started  October 
29,  1934. 

ORDER  SECTION 

Myrtle  Rtjhx,  Supervising  Librarian. 

During  October,  November  and  Decem- 
ber, 1270  books,  2  prints  and  225  photo- 
graphs were  accessioned. 


CATALOG   SECTION 

Ida  G.  Mtjnson,   Supervising  Librarian. 

During  October,  November  and  Decem- 
ber, 610  books  were  cataloged  and  4188 
cards  were  added  to  the  file.  29,406  cards 
were  filed  in  the  Union  Catalog. 

CALIFORNIA  SECTION 

Caroline      Wenzel,      Supervising      Li- 
brarian. 

The  California  Section  aims  to  have  a 
thoroughly  good  collection  of  books  on  the 
history  and  description,  resources  and 
industries  of  the  State,  as  well  as  the 
works  of  California  authors  in  all  de- 
partments of  literature.  These  are  made 
accessible  by  means  of  a  card  catalog. 
Full  names  and  biographical  sketches  of 
California  authors,  artists,  musicians,  pio- 
neers and  early  settlers  are  being  secured, 
together  with  their  photographs.  The  col- 
lection of  bound  periodicals  is  quite  large. 
The  section  also  contains  over  13,000 
bound  volumes  of  newspapers,  a  file  of 
which  is  being  indexed  with  reference  to 
the  history  of  the  State.  Students  will 
be  assisted  in  their  work. 

Pioneers  and  Early  Settlers 
The  following  pioneer  cards  have  been 
received    since    the    last    issue    of    News

Pioneer  Museum 

Owing  to  our  decreased  budget,  the

PRINTS  SECTION 

Bertha  S.  Taylor,  Librarian. 
j  The  Prints  Section  has  been  established 
(only  since  the  new  State  Library  building 
.was  occupied  in  August,  1928.  In  it  are 
(kept  the  prints  acquired  by  the  State  Li- 
jbrary  for  several  years  past  and  now  for 
the  first  time  suitably  housed  and  dis- 
played. In  display  cases  can  be  shown 
'about  fifty  prints  at  a  time  and  exhibits 
are  constantly  maintained.  Visitors  are 
invited. 

Two  prints  were  added  during  this 
jquarter   making   the    total    3180.      Work 

j     *  Native  Californian: 


was  done  on  some  more  of  our  Mexican 
prints,  many  having  been  cleaned  and 
mounted  recently.  These  have  not  yet 
been  cataloged  and  are  therefore  not  in- 
cluded in  our  total. 

There  were  872  visitors  in  the  Prints 
Room  during  the  quarter.  Exhibits  have 
been  as  follows :  In  October  examples  of 
Polish  graphic  art,  loaned  by  the  Polish 
Institute  of  Art  and  Letters ;  November, 
Chinese  paintings  from  the  collection  of 
Dr.  William  B.  Pettus,  president  of 
California  College  in  China ;  December, 
the  annual  exhibit  of  the .  Print  Makers 
Society  of  California. 

BOOKS   FOR   THE   BLIND   SECTION 

Mabel  R.  Gillis,  in  charge. 

Embossed  books  in  the  various  types 
are  sent  to  any  blind  resident  of  Cali- 
fornia upon  application.  Circular  and 
finding  list  with  Call  slip  postal,  will  be 
sent  on  request.  Writing  appliances  and 
games  for  the  blind  are  loaned  as  samples 
to  those  wishing  to  buy  such  articles,  so 
that  the  different  kinds  can  be  tried  be- 
fore they  are  ordered.  Addresses  of  firms 
supplying  all  articles  loaned  will  be  fur- 
nished on  request. 

Books  sent  to  individuals  from  an  in- 
stitution distributing  embossed  literature 
are  carried  free  through  the  mails. 

A  catalog  of  all  books  in  Moon  type 
in  the  Library  up  to  October  1,  1926,  and 
one  including  all  books  in  Braille  up  to 
April  1,  1927,  will  be  sent  to  anyone 
requesting  it.  News  Notes,  reprinted 
from  News  Notes  of  California  Libraries, 
carrying  a  list  of  additions  to  the  Library 
each  quarter,  is  sent  to  each  blind  reader. 

The  State  Library  will  be  glad  to  have 
borrowers  who  care  to  do  so  write  any 
letters  or  requests  for  books  to  the  Li- 
brary in  Braille  or  New  York  point. 

Attention  of  the  borrowers  is  drawn  to 
the  fact  that  books  for  return  to  the  Li- 
brary should  always  be  placed  inside 
mail  boxes  and  not  left  on  top  of  them. 

Again  we  request  borrowers  not  to 
send  post  card  receipts  or  requests  to  the 
Library  inside  of  books.  When  books  are 
returned  they  often  go  out  very  quickly 
again  and  the  pages  are  not  opened  up 
one  by  one.  Therefore,  a  request  sent  in 
that  way  can  very  easily  be  lost  for  many 
months.  The  post  cards  should  be  sent 
in  the  mail  separately. 

Borrowers  are  requested  neither  to 
turn  down  the  corners  of  pages  nor  to 
fold  over  the  page.  Places  should  be 
kept  by  some  sort  of  book-mark. 

Books  may  be  kept  one  month.  At  the 
end  of  that  period  they  will  be  renewed

Second  International  Library  and  Bibli- 
ographical Congress  in  Spain  May  20-29. 
1935.  Unfortunately  she  will  be  unable 
to  attend  the  Congress  because  of  the

brary Association  and  of  the  National 
Association  of  State  Libraries  are  sched 
uled  for  June. 

During  the  quarter  Miss  Gillis  spoke  at

trict in  Fresno  on  February  27 ;  th<> 
Seventh  District  in  Eureka  on  March  2 ; 
and  the  First  District  at  Stanford  Uni 
versity  on  March  30.  From  January  18 
to  22  she  transacted  business  of  the  State 


Library  and  of  the  California  Library 
Association  in  and  around  Los  Angeles. 
From  February  2  to  5  she  worked  on  li- 
brary matters  in  the  Bay  region.  On 
March  6  and  7  she  was  in  Oakland  assist- 
ing with  the  oral  examinations  given  for 
professional  positions  in  the  Oakland  Free 
Library. 

Besides  Miss  Gillis  and  Miss  Hitt  the 
following  members  of  the  staff  attended 
the  Fifth  District  meeting :  Mrs.  Hen- 
shall,  Miss  Wenzel,  Miss  Tilden,  Miss 
Look,  Mrs.  Morris,  Mrs.  Waldron,  Miss 
Shadle,  Miss  Lyndall  Harmon,  and  Miss 
Sherwood.  Miss  Munim  also  attended 
the  Seventh  District  meeting. 

On  January  27  Jack  Sullivan  began 
work  as  library  page  succeeding  Harold 
Carlson  who  resigned  to  accept  a  position 
with  the  Personnel  Board.  On  January 
4  Miss  Gillis  called  a  staff  meeting  to 
speak  about  various  problems  connected 
with  the  legislative  session. 

The  following  staff  members  have  been 
appointed  by  the  Executive  Committee  to

liam Simmons.

meetings  during  the  quarter.  On  Janu- 
ary 30  Miss  Grace  Murray  reviewed  The 
Forty  Days  of  Musa  Dagh  by  Franz

tion. The  State  Library  staff  was  well 
represented  at  a  dinner  meeting  of  libra- 
rians held  at  Wilson's  restaurant  Janu- 
ary 25.  This  meeting  was  planned  as 
the  first  of  several  informal  gatherings, 
the  idea  of  which  is  a  better  acquaintance 
among  those  in  library  work  in  Sacra- 
mento. Miss  Jewel  Gardiner  presided 
and  Mrs.  Ruth  Comfort  Mitchell  gave  a 
delightful  talk  concerning  the  writing  of 
her  series  of  novelettes  entitled  Old  San 
Francisco.      Ernest    R.    Pitt,    Chief    Li-

Fifty  Prints  of  the  Year  were  exhibited. 
This  last  exhibit  was  sponsored  by  the 
American  Art  Dealers  Association  and 
selected  by  the  American  Institute  of

BOOKS  FOR  THE  BLIND  SECTION 
Mabel  R.  Gillis,  in  charge. 

Embossed  books  in  the  various  types 
are  sent  to  any  blind  resident  of  Cali- 
fornia upon  application.  Circular  and 
finding  lists  with  Call  slip  postal,  will  be 
sent  on  request.  Writing  appliances  and 
games  for  the  blind  are  loaned  as  samples 
to  those  wishing  to  buy  such  articles,  so 
that  the  different  kinds  can  be  tried  be- 
fore they  are  ordered.  Addresses  of  firms 
supplying  all  articles  loaned  will  be  fur- 
nished on  request. 

Books  sent  to  individuals  from  an  in- 
stitution distributing  embossed  literature 
are  carried  free  through  the  mails. 

A  catalog  of  all  books  in  Moon  type 
in  the  Library  up  to  October  1,  1926,  and 
one  including  all  books  in  Braille  up  to 
April  1,  1927,  will  be  sent  to  anyone 
requesting  it.  News  Notes,  reprinted 
from  News  Notes  of  California  Libraries, 
carrying  a  list  of  additions  to  the  Library 
each  quarter,  is  sent  to  each  blind  reader. 

The  State  Library  will  be  glad  to  have 
borrowers  who  care  to  do  so  write  any 
letters  or  requests  for  books  to  the  Li- 
brary in  Braille  or  New  York  point. 

Attention  of  the  borrowers  is  drawn  to 
the  fact  that  books  for  return  to  the  Li- 
brary should  always  be  placed  inside 
mail  boxes  and  not  left  on  top  of  them. 

Again  we  request  borrowers  not  to 
send  post  card  receipts  or  requests  to  the 
Library  inside  of  books.  When  books  are 
returned  they  often  go  out  very  quickly 
again  and  the  pages  are  not  opened  up 
one  by  one.  Therefore,  a  request  sent  in 
that  way  can  very  easily  be  lost  for  many 
months.  The  post  cards  should  be  sent 
in  the  mail  separately.

Borrowers  are  requested  neither  to 
turn  down  the  corners  of  pages  nor  to 
fold  over  the  page.  Places  should  be 
kept  by  some  sort  of  book-mark. 

Books  may  be  kept  one  month.  At  the 
end  of  that  period  they  will  be  renewed 
on  request  unless  the  demand  for  them  is 
so  great  that  renewal  is  not  feasible. 

At  the  1931  session  of  Congress  an  an- 
nual appropriation  of  $100,000  was  made 
for  providing  books  for  adult  blind.  This 
work  is  handled  by  the  Library  of  Con- 
gress with  the  books  printed  at  or  pur- 
chased from  various  printing  houses. 
The  California  State  Library  has  been 
designated  as  one  of  the  centers  to  receive 
the  books  printed  from  this  appropriation. 
Many  titles  have  been  received  and  are 
reported  currently  in  the  list  of  books 
added  with  the  note  that  they  are  pro- 
vided by  the  United  States  government 
through  the  Library  of  Congress.  Talk- 
ing books  are  now  also  provided  from 
this  appropriation.     See  page  78. 

The  first  book  was  loaned  June  13, 
1905:  There  are  now  3528  blind  bor- 
rowers, 56  borrowers  having  been  added 
during  January,  February  and  March.

She  spent  18  hours  in  proof  reading  hand 
copied  books.  The  various  other  activ 
ities  in  connection  with  the  work  of  the

These  are  the  books  that  use  the  con- 
tractions adopted  by  the  English  speaking 
nations  as  the  standard  Braille  system. 
The  contractions  have  been  gradually 
introduced  in  our  American  periodicals 
and  books.  Since  all  books  in  this  type 
are  contracted  the  "c"  in  front  of  the 
author's  name  is  omitted. 

These  books  have  been  provided  by  the 
United  States  government  through  the

held  on  April  17.  Miss  Ida  Belle  Craig, 
School  Librarian  at  Kit  Carson  Junior 
High  School,  reviewed  Psychology  and 
life  by  L.  D.  Weatherhead.  Because 
the  staff  participated  so  actively  in  the 
various  features  of  the  C.  L.  A.  con- 
vention it  was  decided  to  omit  the  annual 
staff  picnic  this  summer.  Members  of 
the  staff  attended  two  meetings  of  the 
Sacramento  Library  Club  during  April. 
At  the  first  one  held  at  Wilson's  April

auditorium  Mr.  William  Webster  Ells- 
worth of  New  York  gave  a  lecture  on 
Mark  Twain  illustrated  by  stereopticon 
views,  many  of  them  in  color.  William 
Simmons  was  State  Library  representa- 
tive in  the  Boy  Scout  campaign  held  in 
May.  At  the  June  17  meeting  of  the 
Women's  State  Employees  Luncheon  Club

and  Miss  Look  as  vice  president. 

On  April  17  the  1935  class  of  the 
School  of  Librarianship,  University  of 
California,  spent  the  afternoon  in  the 
State  Library.  The  class  was  in  charge 
of  Miss  Katherine  Anderson,  a  member 
of  the  faculty,  and  the  students  were 
conducted  through  the  various  sections 
of  the  library  by  Mrs.  Henshall.

Caroline  Wenzel,  Supervising  Li-

The  California  Section  aims  to  have  a 
thoroughly  good  collection  of  books  on  the

kept  the  prints  acquired  by  the  State  Li- 
brary for  several  years  past  and  now  for 
the  first  time  suitably  housed  and  dis- 
played. In  display  cases  can  be  shown 
about  fifty  prints  at  a  time  and  exhibits

are  constantly  maintained.  Visitors  are 
invited. 

One  hundred  and  forty  prints,  com- 
pleting the  Mexican  collection,  were  cata- 
loged this  quarter  making  the  total  prints 
3410. 

In  April  the  exhibit  was  a  Photo- 
graphic Survey  of  Historic  Buildings  of 
Northern  California,  loaned  by  the  Wells 
Fargo  Bank  and  United  Trust  Company 
of  San  Francisco.  During  May  and  June 
a  collection  of  Chinese  textiles  and  em- 
broideries, including  a  number  of  valuable 
imperial  robes,  was  displayed  through 
the  kindness  of  Mr.  William  E.  Colby  of 
San  Francisco,  the  owner.  This  exhibit 
attracted  the  largest  number  ever  to  visit 
the  prints  room  in  any  one  month,  the 
attendance  for  May  being  1208.  The  com- 
bined attendance  for  May  and  June  was 
1996  and  for  the  quarter  2474. 

BOOKS   FOR   THE   BLIND   SECTION 

Mabel  R.  Ghxis,  in  charge. 

Embossed  books  in  the  various  types 
are  sent  to  any  blind  resident  of  Cali- 
fornia upon  application.  Circular  and 
finding  lists  with  Call  slip  postal,  will  be 
sent  on  request.  Writing  appliances  and 
games  for  the  blind  are  loaned  as  samples 
to  those  wishing  to  buy  such  articles,  so 
that  the  different  kinds  can  be  tried  be- 
fore they  are  ordered.  Addresses  of  firms 
supplying  all  articles  loaned  will  be  fur- 
nished on  request. 

Books  sent  to  individuals  from  an  in- 
stitution distributing  embossed  literature 
are  carried  free  through  the  mails. 

A  catalog  of  all  books  in  Moon  type 
in  the  Library  up  to  October  1,  1926,  and 
one  including  all  books  in  Braille  up  to 
April  1,  1927,  will  be  sent  to  anyone 
requesting  it.  News  Notes,  reprinted 
from  News  Notes  of  California  Libraries, 
carrying  a  list  of  additions  to  the  Library 
each  quarter,  is  sent  to  each  blind  reader. 

The  State  Library  will  be  glad  to  have 
borrowers  who  care  to  do  so  write  any 
letters  or  requests  for  books  to  the  Li- 
brary in  Braille  or  New  York  point. 

Attention  of  the  borrowers  is  drawn  to 
the  fact  that  books  for  return  to  the  Li- 
brary should  always  be  placed  inside 
mail  boxes  and  not  left  on  top  of  them. 

Again  we  request  borrowers  not  to 
send  post  card  receipts  or  requests  to  the 
Library  inside  of  books.  When  books  are 
returned  they  often  go  out  very  quickly 
again  and  the  pages  are  not  opened  up 
one  by  one.  Therefore,  a  request  sent  in 
that  way  can  very  easily  be  lost  for  many 
months.  The  post  cards  should  be  sent 
in  the  mail  separately. 

Borrowers  are  requested  neither  to 
turn  down  the  corners  of  pages  nor  to 
fold  over  the  page.  Places  should  be 
kept  by  some  sort  of  book-mark. 


Books  may  be  kept  one  month.  At  the 
end  of  that  period  they  will  be  renewed 
on  request  unless  the  demand  for  them  is 
so  great  that  renewal  is  not  feasible. 

At  the  1931  session  of  Congress  an  an- 
nual appropriation  of  $100,000  was  made 
for  providing  books  for  adult  blind.  This 
work  is  handled  by  the  Library  of  Con- 
gress with  the  books  printed  at  or  pur- 
chased from  various  printing  houses. 
The  California  State  Library  has  been 
designated  as  one  of  the  centers  to  receive 
the  books  printed  from  this  appropriation. 
Many  titles  have  been  received  and  are 
reported  currently  in  the  list  of  books 
added  with  the  note  that  they  are  pro- 
vided by  the  United  States  government 
through  the  Library  of  Congress.  Talk- 
ies: books  are  now  also  provided  from 
this  appropriation.     See  page  118. 

The  first  book  was  loaned  June  13, 
1905.  There  are  now  3532  blind  bor- 
rowers, 49  borrowers  having  been  added 
during  April,  May  and  June  and  45  bor- 
rowers lost  by  death  from  July  1,  1934,

blind,  is  at  the  Argyle  Apartments,  146 
McAllister  street,  San  Francisco,  every 
Thursday  from  9  a.m.  to  5  p.m.  Her 
telephone  number  is  Market  0690.     She 


gives  lessons  regularly  in  the  bay  region 
and  the  Santa  Clara  Valley,  with  occa- 
sional trips  to  other  parts  of  the  State. 
Catharine  J.  Morrison,  home  teacher  of 
the  blind,  is  at  the  Los  Angeles  County 
Free  Library,  Broadway  Annex,  Hall  of 
Records,  the  first  Wednesday  of  each 
month.  Her  home  address  is  951  S. 
Kenmore  ave.,  Los  Angeles.  Her  tele- 
phone number  is  Fitzroy  3251.  She 
gives_  lessons  regularly  in  Los  Angeles  and 
vicinity  and  makes  occasional  trips  to 
San  Diego. 

From  April  1  to  June  30,  home  teach- 
ers gave  658  lessons  in  the  homes  of 
the  blind  and  16  lessons  in  libraries. 
They  made  245  visits  and  calls  in  connec- 
tion with  the  work  for  purposes  other 
than  giving  lessons,  and  have  received 
69  visits  in  connection  with  the  work. 

During  the  quarter  Miss  Foley  and 
Miss  Morrison  spent  410  hours  on  cor- 
respondence and  preparing  lessons.  They 
wrote  424  letters  and  291  postals  and 
received  320  letters  and  109  postals. 
They  also  answered  and  made  585  tele- 
phone calls.  They  made  3  addresses.  Miss 
Foley,  as  usual,  taught  the  writing  of 
Braille  to  classes  of  seeing  people  in  Oak- 
land, in  Alameda  and  in  San  Francisco. 
She  spent  26  hours  in  proof  reading  hand 
copied  books.  The  various  other  activ- 
ities in  connection  with  the  work  of  the 
home  teachers  can  not  easily  be  tabu- 
lated.

NEWS    NOTES    OF    CALIFORNIA    LIBRARIES 


[Oct.,  1935 


CALIFORNIA  LIBRARIES— ANNUAL  STATISTICS 


In  June  annual  report  blanks  were  sent  to  all  California  libraries 
listed.  Statistics  from  these  annual  reports  are  printed  in  this  issue. 
Except  when  otherwise  noted,  statistics  are  for  the  period  from  Julv  1, 
1934,  to  June  30,  1935. 

Branch  library  statistics  are  omitted  under  the  names  of  the 
various  branches.  They  are  included,  however,  in  the  general  figures 
given  under  the  main  library.  On  account  of  the  above,  high  school, 
public  and  other  libraries  which  are  affiliated  with  a  county  free 
library  show,  as  a  rule,  statistics  for  their  own  books  only  and  not  for 
county  service. 

In  order  to  keep  statistics  given  herein  consistent  with  figures  given 
by  the  State  Department  of  Education,  we  have  counted  all  districts 
in  a  union  district  as  separate  districts  in  "number  of  active  school 
districts  that  have  joined  county  libraries." 

Population  statistics,  as  of  1930,  are  given  for  all  towns  having 
municipal  libraries. 

In  response  to  a  demand  for  statistics  regarding  juvenile  collec- 
tions, we  are  adding  this  year  such  figures  as  could  be  collected  from 
records  already  kept  by  many  of  the  libraries.  The  plan  is  to  have 
such  figures  for  all  municipal  libraries  in  next  year's  statistics  number

In  order  that  the  figures  for  circulation 
may  be  uniform,  current  magazines  are 
included  in  the  total  whether  reported 
that  way  or  not; 

An  effort  is  made  to  have  the  statistics 
uniform  in  reference  to  number  of 
branches.  Any  distributing  point  through 
which  service  is  given  directly  from 
headquarters  is  counted  as  a  branch. 
For  example,  in  a  school  with  several 
classrooms,  if  service  is  given  directly  to 
each  classroom  separately,  each  room 
served  is  counted  as  a  branch.  If  a 
school  district  has  joined  and  both  school 
and  community  service  are  given  from  one 
location,  such  service  is  counted  as  two 
branches. 

Under  county  libraries  statistics  "school 
enrollment"  or  "average  daily  attendance" 
has  been  given  in  an  attempt  to  show 
more  accurately  the  number  of  users  of 
the  library.  Similarly,  in  an  effort  to 
make  the  circulation  as  given  more  nearly 
.correet,  some  county  libraries  count  the 
use  of  supplementary  books.  Where  this 
has  been  done,  the  figures  have  been 
given  with  an  explanation  of  how  the 
circulation  has  been  kept  or  estimated. 

There  are  in  California  46  county  free 
libraries ;  6  library  district  libraries ;  4 
union  high  school  district  libraries ;  146 
libraries  supported  by  city  taxation ;  62 
towns  or  districts  with  free  public  libra- 
ries that  are  included  in  county  free 
library  service  (28  under  Sec.  3,  7  under 
Sec.  4,  15  under  Sec.  16,  12  under  Pol.  C, 
Sec.  4041.18)  ;  68  law  libraries,  of  which 
56  are  county  law  libraries ;  58  county 
teachers'  libraries ;  446  libraries  in  edu- 
cational institutions,  of  which  5  are  uni- 
versities, 12  colleges,  7  State  teachers  col- 
leges, 365  public  high  schools  and  junior 
colleges,  57  private  schools  and  other  in- 


stitutions ;  76  miscellaneous  institution 
libraries ;  52  association  or  society  libra- 
ries ;  and  16  subscription  libraries.  In 
connection  with  the  above  libraries  are

for  positions  and  also  accepts  applications 
from  outside  the  State.  The  State  Li- 
brary will  be  glad  to  know  of  libraries 
that  want  head  librarians  or  assistants 
in  any  branch  of  their  work.  In  writing

mendation will  help  the  work  greatly  by 
notifying  the  State  Library  at  once.  For

QUARTERLY  NOTES 

Miss  Gillis  spoke  at  a  meeting  of  the 
Business  Women's  group  of  the  Fremont 
Presbyterian  Church,  Sacramento,  on 
September  16  on  the  services  of  the  State 
Library,  emphasizing  the  California  Sec- 
tion, Prints  Section  and  work  with  the 
blind.  She  was  in  San  Francisco  and  the 
Bay  region  from  September  23  to  25 
and  attended  the  meeting  of  the  Affiliated 
Librarians  Group  of  the  League  of  Cali- 
fornia Municipalities  in  San  Francisco 
on  the  24th.  On  Saturday,  September 
28,  Miss  Gillis  and  Miss  Foley  attended 
in  Berkeley  a  meeting  of  representatives 
from  all  state  departments  concerned 
with  work  with  the  blind.  Miss  Hitt 
was  in  Los  Angeles  from  September  27 
to  29  attending  the  meeting  of  the  Execu- 
tive Committee  of  the  California  Library 
Association  on  Friday  and  a  meeting  of 
the  Cooperative  Committee  on  the  Re- 
lationship of  Libraries  and  Schools  on 
Sunday. 

Miss  Blanche  Shadle  resigned  on  Au- 
gust 26.  Miss  Grace  Murray  was  given 
temporary  appointment  as  Editorial  Li- 
brarian pending  the  results  of  a  civil 
service  examination  held  on  September 
21.  Miss  Dorothy  Felter  was  appointed 
September  3  as  Junior  Librarian  in  the 
Order  Section,  succeeding  Mrs.  Edith 
Morris,  resigned.  Leslie  Kay  continued 
work  as  extra  temporary  janitor  during 
July  and  August.     Mrs.  Vera  Frank  sub- 


stituted as  stenographer  during  Mrs. 
Duggins'  vacation  in  August.  September 
25  Mrs.  Audrey  Brown  started  tempo- 
rary work  as  Junior  Typist  Clerk  in  the 
California  Section.  She  is  assisting  in 
searching  records  for  the  use  of  old  age 
pension  applicants. 

The  Personnel  Board  in  September 
changed  the  titles  of  two  positions  in  the 
State  Library.  Junior  Library  Aid  is 
now  Junior  Typist  Clerk  and  Senior  Li- 
brary Aid  is  Library  Aid.  The  require- 
ments for  the  positions  remain  practically 
the  same. 

On  August  20  all  SERA  projects 
ceased. 

LIBRARY   HOURS 

Week  days 9  a.m.  to  5  p.m. 

The  library  closes  at  noon  on  Satur- 
days except  during  sessions  of  the  Legis- 
lature. 

BOOKS    FOR   THE    BLIND   SECTION 

Mabel  R.  Gillis,  in  charge. 

Embossed  books  in  the  various  types 
are  sent  to  any  blind  resident  of  Cali- 
fornia upon  application.  Circular  and 
finding  lists  with  Call  slip  postal,  will  be 
sent  on  request.  Wwting  appliances  and 
games  for  the  blind  are  loaned  as  samples 
to  those  wishing  to  buy  such  articles,  so 
that  the  different  kinds  can  be  tried  be- 
fore they  are  ordered.  Addresses  of  firms 
supplying  all  articles  loaned  will  be  fur- 
nished on  request. 

Books  sent  to  individuals  from  an  in- 
stitution distributing  embossed  literature 
are  carried  free  through  the  mails. 

A  catalog  of  all  books  in  Moon  type 
in  the  Library  up  to  October  1,  1926,  and 
one  including  all  books  in  Braille  up  to 
April  1,  1927,  will  be  sent  to  anyone 
requesting  it.  News  Notes,  reprinted 
from  News  Notes  of  California  Libraries, 
carrying  a  list  of  additions  to  the  Library 
each  quarter,  is  sent  to  each  blind  reader. 

The  State  Library  will  be  glad  to  have 
borrowers  who  care  to  do  so  write  any 
letters  or  requests  for  books  to  the  Li- 
brary in  Braille  or  New  York  point. 

Attention  of  the  borrowers  is  drawn  to 
the  fact  that  books  for  return  to  the  Li- 
brary should  always  be  placed  inside 
mail  boxes  and  not  left  on  top  of  them. 

Again  we  request  borrowers  not  to 
send  post  card  receipts  or  requests  to  the 
Library  inside  of  books.  When  books  are 
returned  they  often  go  out  very  quickly 
again  and  the  pages  are  not  opened  up 
one  by  one.  Therefore,  a  request  sent  in 
that  way  can  very  easily  be  lost  for  many

months.     The  post  cards  should  be  sent 
in  the  mail  separately. 

Borrowers  are  requested  neither  to 
turn  down  the  corners  of  pages  nor  to 
fold  over  the  page.  Places  should  be 
kept  by  some  sort  of  book-mark. 

Books  may  be  kept  one  month.  At  the 
end  of  that  period  they  will  be  renewed 
on  request  unless  the  demand  for  them  is 
so  great  that  renewal  is  not  feasible. 

At  the  1931  session  of  Congress  an  an- 
nual appropriation  of  $100,000  was  made 
for  providing  books  for  adult  blind.  In 
1935  an  additional  $75,000  was  appropri- 
ated for  talking  books.  This  work  is 
handled  by  the  Library  of  Congress  with 
the  books  printed  at  or  purchased  from 
various  printing  houses.  The  California 
State  Library  has  been  designated  as 
one  of  the  centers  to  receive  the  books

Home  Teaching 

Kate  M.  Foley,  home  teacher  of  the 
blind,  is  at  the  Argyle  Apartments,  146 
McAllister  street,  San  Francisco,  every 
Thursday  from  9  a.m.  to  5  p.m.  Her 
telephone  number  is  Market  0690.  She 
gives  lessons  regularly  in  the  bay  region 
and  the  Santa  Clara  Valley,  with  occa- 
sional trips  to  other  parts  of  the  State. 
Catharine  J.  Morrison  is  home  teacher  of 
the  blind  in  the  southern  part  of  the 
State.  Her  home  address  is  951  S. 
Kenmore  ave.,  Los  Angeles.  Her  tele- 
phone number  is  Fitzroy  3251.  She 
gives  lessons  regularly  in  Los  Angeles  and 
vicinity  and  makes  occasional  trips  to 
San  Diego. 

From  July  1  to  September  30,  the 
home  teachers  gave  565  lessons  in  the 
homes  of  the  blind  and  17  lessons  in 
libraries.  They  made  166  visits  and  calls 
in  connection  with  the  work  for  purposes 
other  than  giving  lessons,  and  have  re- 
ceived 80  visits  in  connection  with  the 
work. 

During  the  quarter  Miss  Foley  and 
Miss  Morrison  spent  360  hours  on  cor- 
respondence and  preparing  lessons.  They 
wrote  432  letters  and  208  postals  and 
received  288  letters  and  79  postals. 
They  also  answered  and  made  532  tele- 
phone calls.  Miss  Foley  spent  20  hours 
in  proof  reading  hand  copied  books.  The 
various  other  activities  in  connection  with 
the  work  of  the  home  teachers  can  not 
easily  be  tabulated. 


Home  Teaching  Report  for  San  Fran- 
cisco and  Bay  Region,  July  1,  1934- 
June  30,   1935 

Kate  M.  Foley 

As  the  time  approaches  for  submitting 
the  annual  report,  and  the  work  of  the 
past  twelve  months  is  reviewed,  the 
record  appears  much  the  same  as  that  of 
other  years,  with  the  same  difficulty  to 
find  words  which  will  convey  the  true 
significance  and  helpfulness  of  the  State 
Library  home  teaching  service  to  the 
adult  blind  of   California. 

Regular  service  has  been  maintained  in 
San  Francisco,  Oakland,  Berkeley,  Ala- 
meda, San  Leandro.  Hayward,  and  oc- 
casional trips  have  been  made  to  the 
Masonic  Home,  and  to  Burlingame.  San 
Mateo,  Redwood  City,  Palo  Alto.  May- 
field.  Sunnyvale,  Santa  Clara  and  San 
Jose.  Trips  have  also  been  made  to  San 
Quentin,      Petaluma      and      Sacramento. 


But  the  service  is  not  confined  to  the 
above-mentioned  places  which  are  easily 
accessible.  In  order  to  reach  all  those  who 
wish  to  learn  to  read  raised  type,  and 
whom,  on  account  of  the  expense  of 
traveling,  it  is  not  possible  to  visit,  a 
correspondence  course  has  been  arranged, 
and  by  this  means  the  teacher  is  providing 
instruction  to  blind  men  and  women  in 
Turlock,  Porterville,  Fresno,  Visalia, 
Santa  Paula,  Ventura,  San  Bernardino, 
and  Calexico  in  the  south,  and  in  the 
north  to  Sonoma,  Mendocino,  Marysville 
and  Eureka.  The  service  is  also  extended 
to  the  states  closest  to  us  that  have  no 
libraries  for  the  blind,  and  at  present 
help  is  being  given  to  persons  in  Nevada, 
Washington,  Oregon,  Idaho  and  Arizona. 
These  correspondence  pupils  make  very 
satisfactory  progress,  and  many  are  now 
enjoying  the  privileges  of  the  library  who 
would  otherwise  spend  very  lonely  hours. 
We  are  helping  a  young  boy  in  Oregon 
for  whom  there  is  at  present  no  room  in 
that  overcrowded  state  school,  and  sev- 
eral elderly  women  are  now  able  to  read 
the  Bible  in  Moon  type  whose  loss  of 
eyesight  made  ink  print  reading  pro- 
hibitive. We  were  privileged  to  help  a 
man  in  one  of  Oregon's  state  hospitals, 
and  were  told  that  the  help  thus  given 
was  largely  responsible  for  his  restora- 
tion to  a  more  normal  mental  condition. 
We  also  have  a  number  of  correspondence 
pupils  in  some  of  the  county  hospitals  in 
California,  and  at  Folsom  prison.  All 
this  long  distance  teaching  entails  a 
great  deal  of  correspondence,  but  we  feel 
that  the  time  is  well  spent  and  that  our 
efforts  are  fully  appreciated. 

Regular  weekly  service  is  still  given  at 
the  State  Industrial  Home  for  the  Adult 
Blind,  Oakland.  There  are  a  great  many 
borrowers  in  the  Home,  and  our  weekly 
visits  afford  the  inmates  an  opportunity 
to  make  verbal  requests  for  books,  in- 
stead of  having  to  find  someone  to  write 
for  them.  There  are  countless  ways  in 
which  we  are  helpful,  and  we  are  proud 
of  the  eighteen  years  of  regular  service 
given  to  this  institution.  Frequently 
pupils  from  the  bay  region  drop  in,  and 
many  avail  themselves  of  the  opportunity 
to  telephone  the  teacher  during  her  hours 
at  the  Home.  The  telephone,  one  used 
by  the  inmates,  is  easily  accessible  to  the

teacher,  and  this  enables  her  to  answer 
her  own  calls. 

Frequent  visits  are  made  to  the  Laguna 
Honda  Home  in  San  Francisco,  where 
there  are  a  number  of  borrowers.  It  is 
an  inspiration  to  visit  these  fine,  coura- 
geous elderly  people,  and  their  spirit  of 
mutual  helpfulness  is  beautiful  to  see. 
We  furnish  needles  and  thread  to  one 
old  man  who  sews  on  buttons  and  mends 
for  others  in  his  ward. 

We  still  visit  the  sight  saving  classes 
in  San  Francisco,  and  continue  to  award 
prizes  to  the  pupils  who  do  most  to  avoid 
strain.  They  look  forward  to  this  an- 
nual event,  and  we  like  to  feel  that  we 
have  some  part  in  saving  their  eyesight 
for  work  in  later  life. 

This  year  talks  have  been  given  to  the 
graduating  nurses  of  Franklin,  Stanford 
and  U.  C.  hospitals,  and  to  the  graduat- 
ing class  of  the  pediatric  section  of  the 
latter  hospital.  I  am  called  to  this  hos- 
pital whenever  blind  babies  or  older 
children  are  there  as  patients.  This  is 
a  wonderful  bit  of  cooperation,  since  I 
am  thus  enabled  to  keep  in  touch  with 
these  cases  when  they  have  returned  to 
their  homes,  making  it  possible  to  place 
them  in  school,  or  suggest  important  pre- 
school training. 

In  June,  I  attended  the  biennial  con- 
vention of  the  American  Association  of 
Workers  for  the  Blind,  held  this  year  in 
Louisville,  Kentucky.  During  the  con- 
vention, as  chairman  of  the  American 
Braille  Commission,  I  submitted  its  re- 
port. The  commission  has  rendered  a 
great  service  in  bringing  about  a  closer 
cooperation  between  this  country  and 
England,  and  a  more  unified  use  of 
Braille  contractions,  and  a  stricter  ob- 
servance of  rules  and  recommendations 
which,  it  is  hoped,  will  result  in  greater 
facility  in  reading  the  many  books  now 
available  on  both  sides  of  the  water. 
During  the  convention  I  attended  several 
round  table  discussions,  and  was  able  to 
make  some  helpful  suggestions,  and  to 
frame  a  resolution  asking  the  printing 
houses  to  put  a  greater  number  of  short 
stories    in    simple    Braille    for    beginners. 

I  still  attend  the  monthly  luncheons  of 
those  interested  in  work  for  the  blind  of 
San  Francisco,  and  these  meetings  have 
brought  about  a  closer  cooperation  and  a 


better  understanding  of  mutual  problems. 
Through  the  Edward  F.  Glaser  Eye  Fund, 
many  deserving  people  have  been  supplied 
with  glasses,  and  a  keener  intei-est  has 
been  awakened  in  the  conservation  of 
vision. 

During  the  past  year,  the  California 
Council  for  the  Blind  was  organized.  Its 
membership  consists  of  all  those  working 
with  and  for  the  blind  of  the  state.  The 
State  Library  selected  me  as  its  repre- 
sentative, and  I  was  appointed  to  serve 
on  the  committee  on  the  prevention  of 
blindness  and  conservation  of  vision. 

The  continued  efforts  of  a  group  of 
volunteer  women  who  transcribe  books 
and  articles  into  Braille  have  added  many 
volumes  to  our  library  this  year.  They 
have  transcribed  a  number  of  the  late 
books  of  fiction  so  much  in  demand,  and 
they  are  helping  us  to  increase  our  col- 
lection of  Californiana.  Many  of  these 
women  are  busy  people,  who  yet  find 
time  for  this  splendid  phase  of  social 
service. 

At  this  time  I  wish  to  pay  tribute  to 
the  memory  of  my  sister,  Miss  Alice 
Foley,  who  died  last  Christmas  morning. 
In  1919,  upon  the  death  of  our  mother, 
my  sister  assumed  the  duties  of  guide 
and  secretary,  and  continued  in  this 
capacity  until  a  few  months  before  her 
death.  Her  loss  is  irreparable  to  the 
home  teacher,  and  many  of  the  pupils 
still  mourn  the  passing  of  a  very  helpful 
friend. 

Once  more  it  is  my  pleasure  to  acknowl- 
edge indebtedness  to  the  following  or- 
ganizations and  individuals  for  their  in- 
terest, cooperation  and  encouragement, 
without  which  much  that  has  made  the 
work  worth  while  would  not  have  been 
accomplished.  To  the  Welfare  Depart- 
ments of  San  Francisco  and  Santa  Clara 
counties  for  their  uniform  courtesy  and 
appreciation  of  our  service ;  to  Mrs. 
Emelie  Sussman  for  her  continued  in- 
terest in  the  blind  at  the  Laguna  Honda 
Home,  and  others  in  need  of  the  cheer 
and  comfort  she  has  continued  to  supply 
for  the  past  thirteen  years ;  to  Mrs. 
Jewett  W.  Adams,  for  furnishing  a  reader 
for  the  blind  at  Laguna  Honda,  making 
it  possible  for  them  to  have  the  daily 
papers  read  to  them  ;  to  Mr.  Harry  Kahn 
and    his    Boy    Scout    Troop    No.    82    for

giving  comfort  and  pleasure  to  a  great 
many  of  the  pupils,  and  making  it  possible 
for  them  to  enjoy  this  pastime  with  their 
seeing  friends ;  and  to  the  many  who 
have  contributed  in  any  way  to  the  com- 
fort and  well  being  of  our  borrowers 
our  grateful  thanks  are  tendered.

Home  Teaching  Report  for  Los  Angeles 
and  Vicinity,  July  1,  1934-June  30, 
1935. 

Catharine  J.  Morrison 

As  the  time  approaches  for  the  submis- 
sion of  another  annual  report,  the  home 
teacher  looks  back  over  the  year  to  note 
the  evidences  of  progress  and  the  pupils 
and  events  worthy  of  record.  Progress  is 
indicated  by  the  fact  that  a  larger  number 
of  pupils  have  begun  to  study  each  month, 
resulting  in  an  increase  in  the  number  of 
borrowers  and  a  greater  Library  circu- 
lation. There  are  many  pupils  well 
worthy  of  honorable  mention,  and  there 
are  events  and  accomplishments  which 
mark  this  year  as  an  outstanding  one  in 
progress  for  the  Blind. 

The  daily  routine  of  traveling  to  the 
homes  of  the  pupils,  giving  lessons  in  the 
Moon  and  Braille  reading,  calling  upon 
the  readers  and  assisting  them  in  the 
selection  of  their  books,  writing  letters  of 
information,  instruction  and  encourage- 
ment, preparing  lessons  and  making  a 
daily  report,  and  manifold  small  duties 
and  services  have  been  followed  with  little 
interruption  through  the  year. 

In  following  this  routine  a  large  part 
of  each  day  must  be  spent  in  traveling, 
but  in  no  other  way  can  home  teaching 
be  conducted.  There  are  many  pupils 
who  have  made  the  long  and  sometimes 
often  repeated  trips  well  worth  while,  not 
only  because  of  the  rapid  progress  made, 
but  also  because  of  the  efforts  put  forth 
and  the  reward  gained. 

Five  ladies  in  Long  Beach  and  two 
pupils  in  Wilmington  have  made  the  regu- 
lar visits  there  of  permanent  value,  and 
the  four  trips  to  Glendora  have  brought 
reading  to  a  man,  who  asked  to  learn 
"before  the  rainy  weather  set  in."  The 
Colton,  Ontario,  Uplands  and  Redlands 
trips  have  brought  good  results,  and  San- 
ta Monica  has  been  a  fine  field  for 
library  service.  There  have  been  good 
pupils  in  Pasadena,  Baldwin  Park,  Santa 
Ana,  Monrovia,  Palms  and  Sierra  Madre. 
Journeys  about  the  big  city  of  Los  An- 
geles have  been  profitable  to  many,  but 
space  can  be  given  to  only  a  few.  A 
lady  of  eighty-three,  beginning  in  Septem- 
ber, has  learned  with  remarkable  speed 
and  put  her  knowledge  into  immediate 
practice  by  reading  fifteen  titles  during 
the  last  nine  months.     Another  lady,  not

CALIFORNIA    STATE   LIBRARY

so  old,  but  very  doubtful  of  her  ability  to 
learn,  is  now  a  good  reader  of  the  Moon 
type  and  "well  on  her  way"  to  learn 
Braille.  Another  lady,  also  beginning  in 
September,  has  mastered  both  types  and 
has  become  an  active  borrower. 

Early  in  April  a  Mexican  pupil  of 
sixty-one  began  learning  both  Braille  and 
English  in  order  to  read  the  United 
States  Constitution  for  himself,  so  that 
he  may  complete  his  naturalization  pa- 
pers. He  is  working-  faithfully  toward 
that  end. 

The  three  trips  to  San  Diego,  in  Oc- 
tober, February  and  June,  have  been 
unusually  happy  and  worth  while  because 
of  the  diligent  application  on  the  part  of 
several  of  the  beginners.  At  .least  two 
pupils  should  be  given  mention,  for  one 
has  worked  against  old  age  and  the  other 
almost  total  deafness.  In  the  case  of  one, 
the  family,  and  in  the  case  of  the  other  a 
friend,  has  been  of  invaluable  help,  for 
the  lessons  must  be  few  and  the  rest 
of  the  instruction  by  correspondence. 
These  ladies  are  finding  the  reward  hoped 
for. 

All  these  worth  while  pupils  make  the 
constantly  increasing  supply  of  books  and 
magazines  a  very  welcome  and  needed 
help ;  for  that  is  what  these  books  become 
in  time  to  the  beginners  and  are  to  the 
older  readers.  For  this  reason  we  are 
grateful  for  the  government  appropriation 
which  brings  up  to  date  books  and  maga- 
zines so  regularly  from  the  Braille  and 
Moon  printing  presses  of  the  country. 
Also  the  hand  copied  books  from  the  de- 
voted Red  Cross  transcribers  are  needed 
and  appreciated  by  all  classes  of  readers, 
who  are  now  reading  the  same  books 
which  other  people  enjoy. 

Added  to  the  raised  type  books  the 
talking  books  have  become  a  reality  this 
year.  Several  blind  people  in  southern 
California  now  own  the  machines,  and 
receive  the  records  free  through  the  mails 
from  the  State  Library,  as  they  do  the 
books.  The  records  are  becoming  more 
numerous  and  varied,  and  these  long  time 
recordings,  giving  scripture,  plays,  his- 
tory, poetry  and  fiction  to  the  listeners 
promise  much  pleasure  and  profit. 

The  Los  Angeles  Public  Library  has 
purchased  a  machine  for  group  reading, 
and  the  Santa  Barbara  Library,  which 
has   had   a   gift   of   three   machines,   has 


gathered  blind  people  together  to  listen  to 
"As  the  Earth  Turns"  and  other  books. 
Four  people  there  own  machines.  The 
Zonta  Club  of  Pasadena  has  bought  a 
machine  to  be  loaned  among  the  blind 
people  of  that  city  and  the  Southern 
California  Association  for  the  Blind  has 
given  one  to  a  lady  and  assisted  a  man 
to  purchase  a  machine  on  time. 

A  mention  of  the  clubs  for  the  Blind 
brings  us  to  this  part  of  the  report,  for 
the  many  organizations  working  for  the 
welfare  of  the  Blind  in  southern  Cali- 
fornia are  active  and  important  factors. 
In  many  instances  the  regular  meetings 
of  the  clubs  are  social  events  in  them- 
selves, and  the  clubs  are  responsible  for 
most   of  the   social   life   going   on. 

Besides  helping  in  this  way  the  four 
Braille  Clubs  look  after  their  members, 
three  of  them  having  field  workers  who 
call  upon  the  members,  the  newcomers 
and  the  newly  blind,  report  their  needs 
to  the  clubs,  and  the  names  of  prospec- 
tive pupils  to  the  home  teachers.  The 
Long  Beach  Club  is  interested  in  the  wel- 
fare of  a  little  blind  girl  under  the  care 
of  a  member  of  the  Humane  Society;  the 
Pasadena  Club  still  sponsors  the  annual 
picnic  which  brings  so  many  blind  people 
together  each  year ;  and  the  Los  Angeles 
Club  maintains  an  annual  Christmas 
fund.  Perhaps  the  most  outstanding  serv- 
ice has  been  the  maintenance  of  a  store 
where  articles  made  by  the  blind  are  sold, 
which  has  been  carried  on  by  the  San 
Diego  Braille  Club  for  the  last  nineteen 
months.  A  small  broom  shop  under  the 
Department  of  Institutions  and  the  Re- 
habilitation Division  of  the  State  Board 
of  Education  was  started  in  February, 
and  the  Club  is  actively  interesb'd  in  this 
venture. 

The  Cheery  Chase  Club,  now  of  nearly 
nine  years'  standing,  brings  its  members 
together  for  fortnightly  readings  and 
other  good  times  :  and  the  monthly  dinner 
and  dance  of  the  Good  Samaritan  Club 
grows  each  month  in  attendance  and  gives 
much  pleasure. 

There  are  other  small  organizations 
working  for  the  welfare  of  the  blind,  but 
a  word  concerning  the  Southern  Cali- 
fornia Association  for  the  Blind,  men- 
tioned above,  deserves  space  here.  Be- 
sides aiding  in  the  purchase  of  a  talking 
book   machine,    two   young   blind   women

NEWS    NOTES    OF    CALIFORNIA    LIBRARIES 


[Oct.,.1935 


have  been  assisted  in  buying  Braille 
writers,  and  loans  have  been  made.  A 
radio  has  been  placed  and  white  canes 
purchased  and  distributed.  An  active 
interest  was  taken  in  all  legislation  for 
the  welfare  of  the  blind,  and  at  present 
the  organization  is  working  to  establish 
blind  men  in  Post  Office  lobbies,  where, 
by  executive  order  they  may  operate 
news  stands.  Two  men  are  already 
placed.  I  feel  that  a  word  of  apprecia- 
tion is  due  this  Association  for  its  ready 
response  to  meet  the  needs  of  those  for 
whom  I  have  asked  help. 

There  are  many  agencies  and  friends 
to  whom  acknowledgment  is  due  for 
courtesy  and  help  in  our  Library  service. 
The  Los  Angeles  Country  Free  Library, 
which  has  been  our  headquarters  for  all 
the  years  of  my  service,  is  still  the 
meeting  place  the  first  Wednesday  after- 
noon of  each  month,  and  the  invariable 
kindness  of  the  entire  staff  to  all  who 
come  for  instruction  and  information  is 
worth  much  in  carrying  on. 

Our  friends  at  the  Pomona,  Chino, 
Redlands,  San  Diego,  Santa  Monica  and 
Santa  Barbara  libraries  stand  ready  to 
give  us  help  and  space  at  any  time  it 
is  needed.  Lessons  have  been  conducted 
at  the  Watts  and  Santa  Monica  libraries 
during  the  year. 

We  ai'e  especially  grateful  to  the  San 
Diego  County  Librarians  for  their  help 
in  bringing  a  pupil  from  Bonsall,  more 
than  fifty  miles,  for  lessons  during  my 
trips  to  San  Diego.  This  is  indeed  a 
great  service,  for  in  no  other  way  could 
she   have   personal   help. 

I  am  very  much  indebted  to  Mrs.  V. 
H.  Akers  of  San  Bernardino  and  Mr. 
and  Mrs.  Stanley  Piper  of  San  Diego, 
who  drive  me  about  these  cities  and 
their  vicinities.  These  friends  do  more 
than  merely  drive,  they  find  the  out  of 
the  way  and  hard  places  and  are  keenly 
interested  in  the  welfare  of  all  those 
whom  we  visit.  I  am  also  grateful  to  the 
families  of  my  pupils  in  Baldwin  Park 
who  drive  me  from  one  home  to  the  other 
in  that  widely  scattered  community. 

We  have  cooperated  to  good  advantage 
with  the  teachers  of  the  Department  of 
Institutions,  the  Rehabilitation  Division 
of  the  State  Board  of  Education,  and  the 
County  and  State  Aid  Divisions  of  State 
Aid    for   the    Blind,    and    I    am    indebted 


to  these  agencies  for  bringing  many  blind 
people  to  my  attention. 

We  very  much  appreciate  the  courtesy 
shown  by  Mr.  Gilbert  Rivenburgh  of  the 
State  Industrial  Workshop  for  the  Blind, 
in  permitting  lessons  to  be  given  there, 
not  only  to  the  workers  but  to  those 
coming  from  the  outside. 

A  word  of  thanks  is  due  Mrs.  Roberts 
for  her  annual  gift  to  the  Los  Angeles 
Braille  Club  Christmas  fund  in  memory 
of  a  blind  brother.  We  extend  sincere 
thanks  to  Mrs.  C.  H.  Kelley  of  Pasadena 
who  does  so  much  for  the  success  of  the 
annual  picnic,  and  for  other  services  too 
numerous  to  mention.

tries and  briefs  of  counsel  in  cases  de- 
cided in  the  California  Supreme  and  Ap- 
pellate courts.  State  officers  are  entitled

Bertha  S.  Taylor,  Librarian. 

The  Prints  Section  has  been  established 
only  since  the  new  State  Library  building 
was  occupied  in  August,  1928.  In  it  are 
kept  the  prints  acquired  by  the  State  Li- 
brary for  several  years  past  and  now  for 
the  first  time  suitably  housed  and  dis- 
played. In  display  cases  can  be  shown 
about  fifty  prints  at  a  time  and  exhibits 
are  constantly  maintained.  Visitors  are 
invited. 

The  total  number  of  prints  remains  at 
3410  as  none  was  added  this  quarter. 

Etchings  and  lithographs  of  William 
Woolett,  showing  construction  progress 
on  Boulder  Dam,  were  exhibited  in  July. 
These  were  lent  by  Mr.  Woolett.  In 
August  the  exhibition  consisted  of  "Prints 
by  Living  Americans,"  assembled  and 
lent  by  the  Los  Angeles  Art  Association. 
Prints  from  the  State  Library  collection 
were  shown  during  September.  The
