University of Virginia Library

HAMILTON BARKSDALE MEMORIAL LIBRARY

A gift to the Department of Engineering from Mrs. Hamilton Barksdale
in memory of her husband, an alumnus of the Engineering Department,
specifically donated for the purpose of building up the department
library, will make possible at once much needed changes and additions to
the library. The annual income from this fund, which became available
for the first time in the session of 1925-1926, will be devoted largely to
completing sets of the most valuable periodical literature in the various
fields of engineering together with the binding and suitable housing of these
and other printed publications of merit.
