Annual ReportC0-A 26 1961-62

Dear President Henry:

Submitted herewith is the annual report of the University Libraryfor the year ending June 30, 1962. The outstanding characteristic of theyear was growth in nearly every major phase, but particularly in the ex-pansion of resources for research and study and in the utilization of li-brary materials by students, faculty, and staff. These and other aspectsof the Library's activities are discussed In detail below.

GROWTH OF LIBRARY

At the end of the fiscal year, June 30, 1962, the Library held..3,272,412 volumes cataloged or otherwise fully prepared for use in Urbana,and 253,408 in the two Chicago divisions, or a net increase of 142,436volumes for the year, The unusually large number of volumes added may be:accounted for in part by a "crash" program Inaugurated during the yearto catalog extensive arrearages accumulated at Urbana, and the Inclusionfor the first time of rare books and certain special collections previouslyrecorded and arranged for use. The total cost of materials purchased onthe three campuses was approximately $810,000, to which should be added,substantial collections of books, journals, pamphlets, maps, music scores,manuscripts, and other items received by gift and exchange. Following aredescriptions of some of the noteworthy groups of books and other materialsacquired during the year.

NOTABLE ACQU ISITI ONS

A major a~juisition, purchased for the Library by the UniversityResearch Board, was a collection of 400 volumes relating to Daniel Defoeand other eighteenth-century writers, assembled by Henry Clinton Hutchinsof Yale University, leading American bibliographer of Defoe. The collection,probably unexcelled for condition and completeness, also Includes importantedi tions of works by and about John Toland and Henry Sacheverell, and aconsiderable group of early travel books.

Fifteenth and Sixteen thCentury Rarities

The Library added a number of titles to its distinguished holdingsof early schoolbooks, grammars, and dictionaries.

Farmington Plan

The Library continued its active participation in the "FarmingtonPlan," a cooperative program sponsored by the Associ ation of ResearchLibraries for the acquisition by libraries in the United States of allbooks of research value published abroad. Among major subject assignmentsfor which the University of Illinois Library Is responsible are business

*and commerce, public finance, Italian and French languages, French andSpanish literature, general literature, general technology and engineering,library science, general biography, and all publications issued In Brazil,The year's receipts at Illinois under the Farmington Plan numbered 5,158Items, bringing to 33,398 the total received since the program was inaugu-rated In 1948,

Exchanges

As of June 15, 1962, the Library was maintaining exchange relationswith 3,241 institutions In the United States and foreign countries, a netgain of fifty-one over the previous year. A total of li6,50~ copies ofUniversity of I IInois publications, produced by the University Press, theAgricultural and Engineering Experiment Stations, and other Universitydivisions, were sent to academies, societies, museums, observatories,universities, and similar institutions in exchange for their publications,

PREPARATION OF MATERIALS

The technical departments of the Library--Acquisit on, Catalog,and Serials Departments and their divisions, such as Binding, Documents, andPhotographic Reproduction--are responsible for the procurement, organization,and preparation for use of all types of library materials. A summary oftheir activities for the year followso

Acquisition Department

Much of the work of the Acquisition Department has been reportedin preceding sections under GROWTH OF LIBRARY. Total additions to theLibrary passing through the Department in the course of the year numbered56,Ll41 volumes, 4,435 music scores, 7,405 maps, 131 manuscripts, 6,145photographic reproductions, 51 prints and broadsides, and 584 sound record-Ings. Of the total, 58,302 pieces were acquired by purchase, and 16,890by gift or exchange.

A division of the Department, Documents, responsible for procuringall types of official documentary publications, maintained a total of 14,943serial checking records for titles currently received, a net increase of 480over the previous year. The Division assumed responsibility for United Nations

Page 9: Annual report.;Annual report of the Dean of Library Administration · Research Board, was a collection of 400 volumes relating to Daniel Defoe and other eighteenth-century writers,

-7-

publications in their original form, whi le the History and Political ScienceLibrary received a microprint edition. One important group of materialacquired, about 1,000 pieces, was the Joint Publications Research Service'stranslations of Chinese publications in the social sciencese

Another active section was the Photographic Reproduction Division.A Xerox copier Installed in February provided a service popular with facultyand students. Of 27,471 direct copies made by the Division during the year,16,535 were produced by the Xerox machine.

The Slavic Section uti lized various, sources In acquiring Slavicpublications, e.g., visits by members of the Section to the Four ContinentsBook Corporation In New York, to select Russian books, resulting In adding7,100 volumes; collecting activities by Robert Karlowich, a staff member,who spent the first'half of 1962 In Leningrad, and will be in other EasternEuropean countries during the summer months; exchanges with 144 Institutionsin the U.S.S.R. and Eastern Europe; an excellent dealer in antiquarian Slavicbooks, Israel Perlstein of New York, and in current books, Kamkin of Washington,D.C.i a number of new dealers in Germany, France, and'Austria; and, whenunavailable in original form, photocopies of older publications.

Catalog Department

The number of books cataloged during 1961-62 was 105,359, comparedwith 97,900 the previous year, an Increase of 7.6 per cent. The number ofnew titles cataloged totaled 43,423. In addition to books, there were cataloged3,717 microfilms and microcards, 1,771 music scores and parts, 6,797 maps,and 684 recordings. There were 137,713 cards added to the General Catalog,and 110,720 cards sent to the departmental libraries and reading rooms- fortheir special catalogs. These figures represent substantial increases inwork accomplished, accounted for In part by the provision of nonrecurringfunds for the employment of temporary staff to catch up with arrearagese

In accordance with a long-standing agreement, the Catalog Departmentand the Cataloging Section of the Serials Department supplied the Libraryof Congress with copy for printed catalog cards for 1,348 publications.

Among other important activities of the Catalog Department weremaintenance, under Betty Croftts direction, of the Public Catalog, includingthe task of expanding the catalog into 420 new trays; completing the catalog,Ing of all Congressional hearings from 1885 through 1952, Involving 12,500volumes (primarily accomplished by Florence Sheehan, who devoted bundredsof hours to the project); making a beginning on processing the extensivebacklog of uncataloged books which has accumulated over the years attemptingto keep abreast of the flood of Slavic languages material pouring into theLibrary; and changing location information for thousands of titles trans.ferred from one division to another in the Library system.

Page 10: Annual report.;Annual report of the Dean of Library Administration · Research Board, was a collection of 400 volumes relating to Daniel Defoe and other eighteenth-century writers,

Ser a I s Department

The Serials Department catalogers added 50,286 new serial itemsto the Library's collections, compared with b4,249 the previous year. Inaddition, they cataloged 2,883 serial titles.

At the end of the report year, the Library was receiving 15,580different periodicals (18,419, including duplicate copies). Continuationtitles (serial publications issued less than three times annually) numbered35,941--again including multiple subscriptions and titles received by theDocuments Division. Altogether, document and, non-document serial publicationscoming to the Library on a regular basis totaled 54,360 titles, an increaseof 7,208 above 1960-61. In addition, 520 newspapers, including forty-twomicrofilm editions, were on the current list, It became apparent, therefore,that acquisitions In serial form were growing at a rapid pace, threateningto outstrip budgetary provisions for purchase and binding, and piling Vparrearages for the processing staff. Nevertheless, serial publications areso basic In every field that significant new titles must be acquired as theyappear.

The number of serial titles comprising the Central Serials RecordIncreased during the year from 20,487 to 23,259. The record is still farfrom complete. Since the staff must give first priority to work relatingto current serials acquisitions, cataloging, and processing, little timewas available for completion of the Central Serials Record. During thefall, the f les of the record were transferred to the General Catalog area,making them directly accessible to users--a highly popular move.

A substantial amount of staff time was also spent on certaincooperative bibliographical projects, notably the reporting of new titlesand changes in holdings for the third edition of the Union List of SerialsIn the United States and Canada, completed in August 196I1 and repor tngub0'6 lptions to New Serial TifTes, a national union list Issued by theLibrary of Congress.

The Binding Division processed 33,873 books, 3,765 pamphlets,and 505 typed Illinois theses bound commercially, a total of 38,143 Items,compared to 36,434 last year. The Marking and Repair Section marked andlettered all new accessions, repaired over 6,000 books, bound 5,372 pamphlets,mounted 350 maps, and re-marked 10,211 bookse

USE OF THE LIBRARY

Total recorded use of library materials increased by 95,897 on theUrbana campus in 1961-62, to reach a total of 1,296,939, an increase of eightper cent over the previous year. Enrollment at Urbana, on the other handgrew by only 3.4 per cent. Including the two Chicago campuses, the circula-tlon total was 1,465,515, setting an all-time record for use of the Libraryco lections.

Page 11: Annual report.;Annual report of the Dean of Library Administration · Research Board, was a collection of 400 volumes relating to Daniel Defoe and other eighteenth-century writers,

-9-

These figures represent a continuation of the pattern which hasdeveloped during the past several years, showing recorded library useincreasing at approximately twice the rate of the increase in enrollment.The higher proportion of graduate students enrolled is one important reasonfor the trend. Other considerable factors are general intensification ofstudent effort, changes in teaching methods to require greater libraryuse, expansion of the honors program, and increased research activitiesunder government, industrial, and other contracts.

Total general circulation (669,942) was greater than total reservecirculation (614,727) for the third consecutive year, Indicating much readingactivity on the part of students independent of formal class assignments.

Twenty-five of the Library's public service divisions reportedincreases in use, ranging from two to eighty-five per cent, with seventeennoting increases of ten per cent or more. In terms of formally recordedcirculation, the busiest places in the Library system were, In order,General Circulation, Commerce, Undergraduate, Education, Music, Engineering,Reference, Agriculture, Architecture, and Biology, In'percentage of increase,the following lead, again In order: Newspaper, Journalism, City Planning,Reference, Map and Geography, Modern Languages, University High School, andUnion Browsing Room.

Other types of use, such as the demand foa reading machines formicrotexts and for carrel assignments In the main bookstacks, grew pro-portionatelyo

Statistics of use, however, are only one aspect of the Librarylsservices. Much use is througd direct, unrecorded consultation of materialsin open shelf collections, and through informational and research assistancegiven In person, by telephone, or by correspondence in all units of thepublic service departments. Samplings indicate that total attendance inthe Library was approximately three times the recorded use.

Hours of Opening

The thirty-three units of the public service departnents maintainedschedules varying from thirty-eight hours per week in the Rare Book Roomto ninety.two hours In the Chemistry Library. The average was sixty-fivehours per week. Schedules of hours open were extended tn five library units$the Agriculture and Biology Libraries added three hours on Friday evenings;the Undergraduate and Commerce Libraries added six hours each by remainingopen during the dinner hour) and the Music Library added thirteen hoursthrough earlier morning and evening openings, as well as longer weekendhours. Use of these libraries justified the extended openings.

Besides additions to the regular schedule, longer hours weretried experimentally In four units: Friday evening openings in the Educa-tlon Library, Saturday afternoon openings In the Home Economics Library,keeping the Undergraduate Library open until eleven o'clock each evening,

Page 12: Annual report.;Annual report of the Dean of Library Administration · Research Board, was a collection of 400 volumes relating to Daniel Defoe and other eighteenth-century writers,

-I0

and dinner hour opening of the Biology Libraryo On the basis of useduring the experimental periods, extension of hours would be Justifiedfor the first three divisions, if the extra time can be financed.

Reference Work

The public service departments are continually called upon forassistance of a reference and research nature. Few statistical recordsare kept of questions asked, letters answered, and bibliographies camplled,but such services require a substantial amount of staff time in mostdivisions, and are often extremely helpful to those who receive them.The heaviest load of aid to readers naturally fall Is upon the ReferenceDepartment, which reported increased demands in various types of servicerendered by ite

A number of libraries prepared or maintained special indexes andbibliographies for the use of their c lenteles. The Undergraduate Librarykept up a short story index and a criticism index and prepared other bibli-ographies especially designed for undergraduate students. The VeterinaryMedicine Library scanned all incoming periodicals for articles of in-terestand maintained a special file covering a variety of subjects. The PhysicalEducation Library maintained a game index, a biography index of dancers,athletes, and educators, and folk and square dance index, and other filesof value to physical educati on students. The Law Library prepared exten-sive bibliographies on estate planning, criminal procedure and appeals,and a number of other subjects. The City Planning Library compiled forpublication Exchange Bibliography 20, of the Council of Planning Librarians,entitled City and Regional Planning in India

Snt erIi braa Loans

The Library's borrowing from and lending to other institutionsboth increased. A total of 1,376 items were obtained on interlibrary loan,in original form or by photoreproduction. The material was borrowed chieflyfor the use of faculty members and doctoral candidates. The heaviestdemands on the service came from, in order: History, English, German,,

;Institute of Labor, Spanish and Italian. The top nine institutions borrowedfrom weres Chicago, Library of Congress, Harvard, John Crerar, Princeton,Michigan, Midwest InterLibrary Center, Yale, and Iowa.

About three-and-a-half times as many volumes were loaned, 4,769,as were borrowed, an increase of twenty per cent, with loans going toforty-eight states, the District of Columbia, and eight Canadian provinces.The most frequent requests for loans came from Southern IlIIinois, NorthernIllinois, California (Berkeley), Purdue, Indiana, Washington (St. Louis),Chicago, Iowa, and Kansas.

A new policy of reciprocal agreements for the payment of interlibraryloan transportation charges eliminated a great deal of record keeping,

Juvenile Delinquency

Missing books and mutilations continued to be a problem of:.iarproportions. Known losses dur I ng the year were reported by several I lbr:ryunits: Undergraduate, 9761 Commerce, 450; Physical Educatione :5139 cheminry131g Engineering, 103; Browsing, 107

An Inventory in the Education Library after a yearts opera:on:wit.:turnstiles has shown a dramatic reduction in the number of misslng booksIn that division, and similar reductions would doubtless occur if turnstileswere installed in other problem areas

It is hoped that the availabl Ity of a Xerox 914 zcopy ing mache•inbeing placed in the Circulation Department, may reduce the nordinate amountof muti lation of i brary materials. The Sub.Committe6 on: Student Disc:plne,..recognized the seriousness of the problem by dismissing from the Universltya student guilty of mutilating several periodicals.

Extension of Services

Orientation tours, lectures, organized courses, exhibilts displays,new book lists, periodical lists, bibliographies, guides, and handbookswere used by the public service departments to make the Library and Itsresources better known and more widely used.

A new departure in orientation was initiated by the Education Li:brary with a half-hour video-tape, prepared by Edward Holl ey, to take theplace of personally conducted tours. The success of this presentation ledto the preparation of a script, by Robert Oram, Edward Ratcllffe, andHallet Glldersleeve, fcr a video-tape to replace the 120 or more orlenftatitours conducted each year by the Reference Department and the UndergraduateLibrary, Both tapes were found effective for their purpose and promtsed torelieve the Library staff of a constantly Increasing burden. The tapeswere produced by the Office of Instructional Television.

A number of departmental libraries carried on orientatlon toursand lectures for new students, including Architecture, Chemistry, EngineerIng, Geology, Journalism, Labor and Industrial Relations, Law, Libr ryScience, Map and Geography, Physical Education, University High andVeterinary Medicine. -g

Twelve major exhibits, prepared by Barbara $tanker, with assistancefrom various faculty members, were shown in the General Library in the corse.of the year. Of unusual interest were "Jonathan Baldwin Turner and theLandGrant Act," "Marcel Proust," "The Carr Collection of PresidentialAutographs," "The Land-Grant Centennial, 1862,1962," "Recent FaultyPublications," and "Tribute to Igor Stravinsky."

A series of five-minute radio book review programs, sponsored bythe Illinois State Library, was presented by Robert Oram throughout theyear. The program was furnished to thi rty.three other Education Networkstations in the United States.

Acqulsition and Processing of Materials

Though the procuring and processing of library materials are theprimary responsibility of the technical divisions, the public service staffIs also intimately involved in the same procedures. Departmental librariansregularly check new book lists, book reviewing periodicals, publishers'lists, dealers t catalogs, ahd subject bibliographies to maintain and tostrengthen their collections.

A large amount of processing of library materials was also carriedon In the public service units. All maintained some kind of serial an.catalog records, and in several instances did specialized or Ilmt ed cataloging. For example, the Rare Book Room cataloged In brief, temporary formmore than 1,500 volumes; the Map and Geography Llbrary cataloged 6,795 mapItems; the Architecture Library cataloged 2,150 slides and photographstCity Planning added 1,754 publications to its vertical files; and the HomeEconomics Library added 762 slides to Its classified and cataloged collectlon•

Quarters and Equiipment

In April, the Labor and Industrial Relations Library moved into pewquarters in the Institute of Labor and Industrial Relations Building. Spacewas provided there for fortyptwo.seats and 12,000 volumes,

Improvements elsewhere were also made: the University High SchoolLibrary was repainted and a professional ilbrary set up for the UniversityHigh School faculty; a browsing area was set aside in the Mathematics L-.brary; a new rubber tile floor was laid in the Circulation Desk area, andthe space there was rearranged to permit a more efficient work flowinsulat on and heat shields were installed on bookstack pipes and radiatorsto help eliminate the winter problem of overheating and underheating forcarrel users; and air conditioning for the Biology and Geology Librarieswas in process. Also in progress at the end of the year was modernizationof lighting in the Rare Book Room, the Browsing, Classics, History, LibraryScience, Map, Modern Language, and Physical Education libraries, and theoriginal unit of the bookstacks.

MEDICAL LIBRARY

With the addition of 4,825 cataloged items, the Medical SciencesLibrary contained 150,462 volumes at the end of the year, maintaining itsposition in the front rank of medical center libraries throughout thecountry. Cirrent serial subscriptions numbered 2,000, including seventy.four new subscriptions. The acquisition policy was to procurje a well=rounded collection of books and journals in all fields of interest.There was some concentration of effort on two fields new for the Library:social psychiatry and higher mathematics.

From endowments, sixteen book titles and several new periodicalsubscriptions on dermatology were purchased from the Pusey Fund, and five

titles in surgery from the Allen Memorial Fund,

Circulation of library materials of all types increased, with atotal figure of 109,385, representing 8.3 per cent growth over 1960-61lInterlibrary loan transactions were also active, expanding by thirteenper cent. The circulation figures appear to reflect a long-time trend,since statistics for the past ten years show a 67.5 per cent increase--from 65,282 in 1950-51.to 109,385 in 1961-62.

Groups coming to the Library for orientation lectures or ,oursconducted by the Circulation-Reference Librarian and her assistants incu dedstudents in the College of Nursing, School of Social Work, OccupationalTherapy, dietitians from Cook County Hospital, registrants in NursingWorkshops, members of Omega Beta Pi, national premedical honorary fraternity,and new students in the Col !ege of Pharmacy.

On technical aspects, moderate progress contiued to be madetoward completing the Library's cataloging of serial publications. Todate, complete, accurate records have been prepared for 1,900 titles and26,775 bound volumes of serials--not quite one-half of the Librarytsholdi ngs.

Because of increasingly crowded conditions, space for housingrecords and materials is a recurring problem. Additions to equipment forthe Library catalog required the shifting of 260,000 catalog cards. Over,crowding in the West Reading Room, where recent books are shelved, made: . .necessary shifting some 2,000 volumes to the basement stacks.

With the assistance of the Department of Medical Illustration,the Library presented a series of exhibits in the DMP Building, Includedwere "Medicine in Art,' representing the work of artists--anatomists,caricaturists, and fine artists; "The Medical World of the EighteenthCentury;" Herbals and Medical Botany," from the seventeenth to the nine.teenth centuries; and "The Land-Grant Centennial, 1862-1962."

The Library participated in the training of medical librarlans,foreign and domestic. For varying periods of observation or practicework, medical librarians from Japan, Australia, Norway, Ghana, and theSudan were received by the Library staff. Near the end of the year, anInstitute on Developments in Medical Library Administration was hld. onthe Medical Center campus, under the direction of Wilma Troxel and FrancesB, Jenkins, Operating with a grant from the Division of General MedicalSciences of the National Institutes of Health, twenty-five librarianspresently employed in medical libraries were given travel expenses andliving accommodations for a week, to strengthen their preparation for theprofession.

AIl departments of the Library benefited from the addition of thesecond-floor lounge area to the Library. The seating capacity was theebyincreased 15l· per cent.
