TH CENTURY THEATRE CLUB LIBRARY HE Bloomingdale Branch of The New York Public Library (at 206 West 100th Street) contains the library of the Century Theatre Club. This is a collection of about 220 volumes. It includes books on the art of acting and on the technique of the drama, as well as the texts of plays themselves. At present the additions which are made to it are principally modern plays. The Century Theatre Club deposited the collection with the Bloomingdale Branch for the purpose of making it available to the public. The books are not to be lent for home use, but must be consulted in the building. Under that condition, however, they are freely at the disposal of anyone, whether a regular reader at this Branch or not. Students of the art of the drama are using it all the time, and a still wider patronage will be welcome. TH BOOKS ON HEALTH HE list of books on health in this number of the Branch Library News is printed at the request of the Director of the Bureau of Public Health Education of the City of New York. Through the courtesy of the Public Library of Rochester, N. Y., the list is based on a similar one issued by that library. Certain additions and changes in the arrangement were made before it was printed here. JOAN JOAN OF ARC [OAN OF ARC is the subject of a short list of books in this number. The Library is reminding its readers of these works on account of the fact that on December 8 the Oratorio Society of New York will sing, for the first time in this country, Enrico Bossi's "Joan of Arc." It is also worthy of notice that a statue of Joan is to be unveiled in New York City next spring. THE CIRCULATION HE circulation for the month of October was 839,779, an increase of 25,718 over the corresponding month of last year. During the ten months, January to October, inclusive, the circulation was 8,482,178. |
