The whole number of volumes in the several libraries of Yale University is over 190,000, to which may be added 75,000 unbound pamphlets. The University Library has 135,000 volumes: the Linonian and Brothers Library 30,000; the Law Library 9,000: the Sheffield Scientific School 6,000; the Lowell Mason Library of Church Music 4,000; the Trowbridge Reference Library of the Divinity School 3,000; while in addition should be mentioned libraries of the art and medical schools. About 7,000 volumes are added to the different libraries every year. The largest circulation, it is found, is in the senior class, next in the junior, and then in the sophomore and freshman classes, showing a growing tendency on the part of the students to make use of the college books. The new Chittenden Library has a large and well-lighted reading room, which will greatly increase the facilities offered to readers.
