The Delights of the Small Library
Abstract
Devoted to the Pine Hills branch of the Albany (NY) Public Library, with its approximately 35,000 books, let a dedicated user defend the principle of being small and the concomitant notion that the small library is an ideal place for leisure‐time activity. Most of the literature of acquisitions, collection development, evaluation, and the like seems ultimately concerned with massive libraries. Yet, these are relatively few, as compared to the thousands of smaller, and more used, public and academic libraries.
