...collection below the Mason-Dixon line to match the luster of those in the Northeast. Now that has changed. Last week the final shipment of some 220,000 volumes-nearly 4% shelf miles of books-from Hartford's superb collection went South, bound for the library of Candler School of Theology, part of Emory University in Atlanta.
