Book excerpt: Excerpt from Transactions and Proceedings of the Second International Library Conference: Held in London, July 13-16, 1897 At the meeting of the Library Association held at Aberdeen in 1893, a resolution was carried, inviting the American Library Association to cross the Atlantic. Much friendly correspondence followed in the course of the next two or three years, and at one time it was hoped that a joint conference of the two Associations might be arranged. At the annual meeting of the Library Association at Buxton in 1896, congratulatory telegrams were exchanged between the two bodies, and finally a great number of American visitors promised to come to London in 1897. The idea of a joint meeting developed into the larger scheme of an International Conference, which it was thought would appropriately mark a date just twenty years after the first International Conference of Librarians in 1877. A representative Organising Committee was formed, of which a complete list will be found on page 210. The work of making the arrangements for the Conference was divided up among the following committees: - Papers and Discussions (Chairman, Dr. Richard Gamett, C.B., LL.D.; Secretary, Mr. J. D. Brown), Reception Committee (Chairman, Mr. Charles Welch; Secretary, Mr. E. M. Borrajo), Exhibition Committee (Chairman, Mr. Herbert Jones; Secretary, Mr. Thomas Mason), Finance Committee (Chairman, Mr. Henry R. Tedder, Honorary Treasurer of the Conference; Secretary, Mr. J. W. Knapman). The Honorary Secretary-General of the Conference was Mr. J. Y. W. MacAlister. The Organising Committee were fortunate in securing Sir John Lubbock as President. A very large number of Vice-Presidents, including distinguished names in science, literature, and art, men of mark of all kinds, and librarians from all countries, added the support of their names. Invitations were issued to the ministers of public instruction of Europe and all the great libraries of the world to send delegates; and no less than fourteen Governments and 313 libraries were represented at the Conference. The total roll of members amounted to 641. About forty of these had attended the first Conference in 1877, whose membership extended to 217 names. The Corporation of the City of London kindly offered a meeting-place in their Council Chamber, and permitted an exhibition of library appliances to be held in the great hall itself. The subjects discussed extended to all departments of library economy. The papers numbered forty-six, and covered important subjects like History and Evolution of Libraries, Libraries and Public Culture, Training of Librarians, Cataloguing and Classification, Choice of Books, Helps to Readers, Library Committees, Library Buildings, Bibliography, and History of Printing, Some departments were very fully treated: for instance, the Progress of Libraries in the British Empire and the United States, the Training of Librarians, Library Co-operation, State Library Associations in the United States, and Library Committees. Special attention was laid to Bibliography. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
