Thayer is a powerful, well-built man, possessing a clear head and excellent judgment. He was a member of last year's crew. W. R.

These we hope to see put in shortly, and we have good ground for believing that, in this respect, our wishes will...
...sent from Gore Hall once a week to examine the shelves of these libraries by the shelf-lists. Temporary loans are made to these libraries from Gore Hall, so as to facilitate the instruction of the several departments. Of these ten subsidiary libraries six are open evenings, and are well patronized. The advantages reaped from this system of subsidiary libraries compensate for the trouble and annoyance it causes. As the useful books in the department are put in these subsidiary libraries, collateral reading is slightly impeded. Books of reference are put beyond the easy reach of frequenters of Gore Hall...
