The Association of Special Libraries and Information -
Bureaux have published The Aslib Directory under the editor- ship of Mr. G. F. Barwick, late Keeper of Printed Books at the British Museum. There are introductions by Sir Frederick Kenyon and Sir Ernest Rutherford : the book is published by the Oxford University Press (at £1 ls.) : there is a subject index, which forms the main part of the work, an alphabetical list of towns with the libraries or other sources of inforrna: tion, and an index of names. In the subject index may be found all sources of infOrmation available on aeronautics,. for instance, or finance, miniatures, mining, and a thousand other matters. The book is likely to be of real assistance to many and the need for it will grow with each year, - We congratulate all, concerned on its publication, not forgetting the Carnegie Trustees, who have helped financially.
