MR. WINSOR, in his first annual report of the condition of our Library, speaks of the alterations in the reading-room, and recommends that some arrangement be made for the use of this room in the evening. Such a privilege is much desired by a large number of students. The advantage which it would give to those who desire to consult many books is obvious; the Library is almost the only place in the University where we are secure from interruption, and many students find it far more convenient to work there than in their rooms. Again, those of us who want to read the magazines before they fall into the clutches of the professors and are taken from us for an indefinite time, would have a greater chance of seeing them; and we should be somewhat better protected against those few students who reach the Library early in the afternoon, select all the most desirable periodicals, pile them upon the table and proceed to read them at their leisure. Evening access to the reading-room of the Library would be a benefit to the whole University, and we hope that Mr. Winsor's proposal will be speedily carried out.
