Primer Criticisms 173 Comments on A. L. A. Primer.
My chief criticism of the A. L, A.
Library Primer is that the general tone is too democratic. The scholarly side of library work I think, ought to be emphasized more. There is danger of overestimating the purely technical re- quirements of the librarian. I believe in educating the public from the top downward — to paraphrase Bismarck's saying. The six years experience of this library shows that the standard of book selection was too low at the
...start and now it is hard to elevate it. The reference department has done the best work.
The advice, "put no money into rare books. A book — out of print lo years . . . has no place in the active free public library" is. I think, very mis- leading. Many of the books in the A.
L. A. model library are out of print but are extremely valuable. I think it would be better to say: **Buy no rare books simply because they are rare." My experience is that the public's recommendation for books is of little or no value.
