Abstract

Outlines the extensive survey of the 42 Anglican and 19 Roman Catholic Cathedrals in England undertaken by the author in 1991. Describes the six sections of the survey reports: factual matters, which included names and addresses of incumbents, architects, etc. and the physical construction of the building; major repairs; repair and conservation work needed for special parts of the fabric; resources, both financial and physical/personnel; recommendations; and subjective assessment. Explains the allocation of grants and their effect on the future of the cathedrals, and explores the possibility of future studies likely to spring from this work.

Abstract

Organisation und Bibliotheksarbeit. By TIBOR SÜLE and ELLE BRANTHIN. Berlin: Deutscher Bibliotheksverband, 1977. 308p. DM26.50: This work is a collection of contributions from sociological and management points of view. Süle's introduction (pp9–16), which gives a short summary of each paper, attempts an interim account of work within the library field and work as yet unassimilated. The first part of the volume covers sociological aspects, the second management, as seen in Branthin's essay (ppl27–49).

Abstract

‘THhis,’ wrote Mr Mackenzie a few weeks ago, ‘is the first formal report on the working of the Library; it covers a period of rather less than a year—from 16th September, 1963, when the Librarian arrived in Lancaster with half a dozen books in his brief‐case, until 31st July, 1964, when an effective library was in operation with a stock of over twenty thousand volumes.’ There, if we forgive Mr Mackenzie for his poet's licence, is the essence of the accommodation problem with which each new university is being faced. We are not being asked to expand existing book and reader accommodation, or to replace it by new building. We have started with nothing and we have to be operational a year or eighteen months afterwards.
