ICRdJCOSM ?=- Library Science Library schools educate people in the general principles underlying library work, and the best standard methods, so that each person need not grope through similar problems in every individual library, but profit by the past experience of former experimenters. American libraries find women valuable staff members, and Simmons educates them to choose books wisely, arrange and catalog them well, and then make them available to men, women and children of the community.
