Excerpt from Pamphlets and Minor Library Material: Clippings, Broadsides, Prints, Pictures, Music, Bookplates, MapsNothing so straitly challenges Mr. C. A. Cutter's definition of the functions of a library - to get, to keep and to use as a consideration of the best treatment for pamphlets. Most libraries, indeed, if their librarians be wise, will not keep even all the bound books which come to them, but the enormity of rejecting unsuitable gifts seems less with pamphlets and minor material. Only the very largest libraries, not a dozen in this country, will get everything they can; still fewer will mean to keep (in the permanent sense) everything they get. The keeping will be modified consciously or unconsciously by such reservations as till worn out or as long as useful or till later or better material appears. The same con siderations give serious pause to the librarian who would observe the thoroughly valid counsel of perfection bind everything you keep, which in these days is more likely to be amended to read bind everything you are sure will be kept permanently.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
