460 History of Medical Practice in IllinoisLaboratory and 75 current medical journals. In the same year, it seems,the library of the late Charles Warrington Earle, containing nearly 500volumes, was purchased, and Dr. Henry M. Lyman, Professor of Medicineand the Dean of the College at that time, donated more than 400 volumesfrom his private library. There were other liberal donors, but Dr. Hektoen,the moving force at the start of the Rush Medical Library, was for a longtime thereafter the most active member of the Library Committee. Togetherwith the cooperation of its librarian, Miss MacAuliffe, 10 the progress anddevelopment of the library were guided.3. Northwestern University Medical School and the Woman's MedicalCollege.—As to the origin of the library of the Chicago Medical School(laterto become Northwestern University Medical School), the informationgleaned from the minutes of the faculty and the college catalogues isscanty during its earlier period. In i860, the year following the opening ofthe school as the medical department of Lind University, the faculty passeda resolution "that Drs. Andrews and Hollister be a committee to the libraryto appoint a librarian to enforce the rules." n Within a year the libraryhad about 700 volumes, and in the seventh annual announcement (1865-66) it is noted that there was "a library of nearly 1000 volumes. Duringthe present year still further additions have been made to the Museumand the Library, and a Reading Room has been opened in connectionwith the latter, containing all the principal Medical Periodicals of theUnited States and some from Europe." However, in 1870, the faculty votedthat those who had "deposited or donated books to the library" be allowedtwo weeks to withdraw the ones they wanted and that the rest should go tothe library of the Chicago Medical Society.A revival of interest in a library did not come until about ten years later.In 1883 the motion was made before the Alumni Association "to use moneycollected for the establishment of a physiological laboratory and for alibrary." Evidently the motion was carried for a library committee wasappointed. The following year the library had 145 bound and 100 unbounditems. During successive years little activity isrecorded, and facilities didnot soon improve. During the academic session of 1889-90, the library wasmoved "from ground floor to basement, from basement to attic and atlast .... domiciled in a former prosector's room adjoining the upper lectureroom." These accommodations were so cramped that, at the recommendationof the Committee, unbound material was turned over to the NewberryLibrary. The college library continued to lead a roving existence and in10Miss Catherine MacAuliffe died in 1939 after forty years of service.u Carr, Elizabeth F.: The Archibald Church Library of Northwestern UniversityMedical School.

Medical Libraries in Illinois Preceding 1900 4611894 was temporarily housed in one of the store-rooms of the bacteriologiclaboratory. By this time it was much in need of organization and cataloguing,and the Y.M.C.A. offered to takeover the work of caring for it, pro\ idedthe faculty helped them in finding space. 11It required thirty years for the college library, now designated as the"Alumni Library," to regain the status it had in 1865-G6. The college cataloguefor the session 1896 says: "The Alumni Library of about one thousandvolumes, purchased by the students and donated by the late Drs. F. P. Peckand G. W. Jones, is conveniently located on the lower floor of Davis 1 1 all.The library is open from 12 to 2 daily. . . . The gross profits on the saleof all college textbooks made at the clerk's office are devoted to the increaseand care of this library." By 1901, the library had over 2500 bound volumesand "several thousand journals and pamphlets; had moved to the fourthfloor(the one also occupied by the gymnasium) and was open from nine tofive. Administration was still by a committee of alumni and students, andnot by the school." nThe Woman's Medical College had been academically successful fromthe start. In 1896, a library was established at this school and received thename of "Earle Library," to honor the memory of Professor and DeanEarle who died three years before. According to the college catalogue, 1 - the"library is in possession of a well-selected collection of books of reference.These volumes form the nucleus of a more complete library, to be augmentedfrom time to time by gifts from various donors, as well as purchasesand exchanges made under the direction of the University authorities."4. Quine Library of Medical Sciences of the Chicago Professional Schoolsof the University of Illinois.—Soon after the death in 1892 of Dr. A. ReevesJackson, a founder of the College of Physicians and Surgeons, "his widowdonated to the college a small library of thirty books. No provision wasmade for the care of this gift and no use was made of it, and in two yearsthe number of books was reduced to fifteen or twenty." ia Students this vearwere apprized of the advantages of consulting the medical department ofthe Newberry Library. This allusion to the value of a medical librarymay be attributable to the influence of Dr. William E. Quine who hadjust been appointed dean of the faculty and who, during his22 years inthis post, had an abiding zeal in the upbuilding of the college library. 14 In12Annual Announcements of the Woman's Hospital Medical College, 1870-1902.
