The Library World Volume 55 Issue 6

HOW quickly a year of office passes. On December 31st, Dr. S. C. Roberts retired from the Presidency of the Library Association having won the full appreciation of the members. As scholar, librarian, library committee member, publisher and university chief he was essentially the sort of leader that an Association concerned with books rejoices to have; and, as leader, he proved to be all we desired in his presidential address, his handling of the Annual Meeting and the various tasks that fall to the President. We have been well served.
