Book Description

Excerpt from Report of the State Librarian of Pennsylvania, 1905 On April 22, 1905, Mr. Robert P. Bliss, the secretary of the Key stone State library association, was authorized by the Commission to visit all the Traveling library stations in the eastern part of the State and also the established libraries of that section. Mr. Bliss accomplished this work most thoroughly and his report to the Commission concerning his work is appended. The evidence of the good accomplished by Mr. Bliss is apparent in the increased activity of the libraries of the towns he visited. His practical experience in library work has enabled him to give advice and encouragement to those working under depressing conditions and the good results are very apparent from the correspondence which has ensued. It is hoped Mr. Bliss can be secured this spring to visit the counties not included in his former trip. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
