The County Library and Education Available to Purchase

THE county libraries have now, after a few short years of experiment, established themselves as parts of the national system of education, in close relation to the elementary schools, on the one hand, and to the various forms of adult education on the other. Committees and chairmen of committees, directors, county councillors and the ultimate rate‐payers, are beginning to recognise this, but need to recognise in more complete and practical fashion still.
