,THE ILLIO OF I929 DEAN ALBERT J. HARNO HE primary purpose of the College of Law is to educate students for the practice of law, to develop professional character and to inspire an appreciation of the duties andresponsibilities of a lawyer as a member of society. A further purpose is to train a limited number of students for law teaching. Only the stronger students are encouraged to enter into this important worlc, for of their number principally will come the future legal scholars and writers and they will shape the thinking of others. It is a recognized purpose of the Law School to promote legal scholarship and research. Finally it is the purpose of this College to train students for public service. It is a well lcnown fact that most public men are recruited from the ranks of those who have been legally trained.

THE ILLIO Oi I929 New Library Building THE LIBRARY SCHOOL Pi-uNEAs LAWRENCE WINDSOR, Director of the University Library and the Library School, has spent twenty-six years in library work. He was graduated from Northwestern Uni- versity in 1895, and studied at thc New York State Library School from 1897 to 1899. On leaving there he began his active work as assistant New York State librarian, but changed to the copyright office of the Library of Congress in 1900. In 1903 he became Librarian of the University of Texas, serving there until 1909, when he accepted his present position. DIRECTOR PHINEAS L. WINDSOR HE University Library not only supplies many volumes for class use by our large number of students, but also gives to our graduate students and to members of the faculty the use of the uncommon or rare books so often required in their advanced work. We have no large Reference Library in our immediate neighborhood, consequently we must provide in our own library all the printed resources that we need. The library staff organizes our more than 650,000 volumes for effective use. The Library School is a professional school for the training of librarians, and admits only college graduates to its curriculum. Students come to it from every part of the country and occasionally from foreign countries, and its graduates are in libraries similarly located. The number, resources, and educational value of libraries in America are steadily increasing and this condition creates an increased demand for college trained librarians. I 4 w 1 4 XIX!!!- WSW
