62 CARNEGIE LIBRARY OF PITTSBURGH
Clippings and ephemeral material on topics of current and
local interest are kept on file, and this collection is constantly
being enlarged and brought down to date.
Most readers will find it convenient to go directly to a
Library assistant with their requests, for much useful material
is often hidden away in essays, books of miscellany, pamphlets
and bound magazines, about which the ordinary reader may
riot know, and with which it is the business of the assistant to
become familiar.
For special research workers books not contained in this
Library will be borrowed from other libraries if desired. For
those whose work requires special quiet and seclusion there are
private rooms where they may have their reference books and
be undisturbed. These rooms are also convenient for groups of
people who wish to confer together concerning their work.
Readers may recommend, books which they consider suitable
additions to the Library by leaving a note of such books
at the Reference Desk. These recommendations are submitted
to the book committee each week and a report of the decision
regarding them is mailed to the reader.
Copies of the Monthly Bulletin of the Library, giving an
annotated list of the books added during the month, will be
found at the Reference Desk. They are for free distribution at
the Library, and will be mailed to any address for twenty-five
cents a year. The Monthly Bulletin contains also a list of the
catalogues, reference lists and other publications of the Library.
