THE BULLETIN. The Cambridge Public Library Bulletin will be published on or about the 15th day of each month. The primary object of the publication is to present lists of new books added to the library, and the book notices will be more extended than those of the weekly lists published in the newspapers. The bulletin will also make possible the publication of special reading lists either on topics of the day or on suggested subjects. The bulletin is for free distribution. Copies may be had at all times at the library and at the local delivery stations. Back numbers will be supplied, so far as possible, on application at the library. The cost of the bulletin sent by mail is twentyfive cents per annum, payable in advance, and subscriptions will be received at the library at any time. Books which have the letter R in place of the call number may be found in the reference library. Some of these books may be taken from the library by applying to the librarian.
