LIBRARY EQUIPMENT
The general library contains more than ninety thousand
volumes, including the standard works in history, literature
and science, and is particularly rich in materials for the
study of the causes, the conduct, and the results of the
world war, and generally of political, social and economic
achievements and tendencies. The reference section is
well supplied with journals, encyclopedias and research
documents.
It has been the effort of the School of Commerce primarily
to secure the standard publications in all lines of
economic and commercial activity. Additions are constantly
being made to the library equipment of such books
as have received recognition from authorities in the various
aims to maintain a fairly complete selection of books
in this field, more care is given to the selection than to the
number of publications secured.
The library subscribes to the leading American publications
on commerce and finance and to some of the principal
English journals. The periodicals are regularly used
for reference purposes, and students are urged to keep in
constant touch with current business news and problems.
The library also contains complete sets of the more important
magazines in the field of economic theory which are
of especial use to those who wish to engage in research.
