Excerpt from Index Catalogue of the Govanhill and Crosshill District Library In the selection of the books to form the several branches of the lending department, what may be termed a principle of variation or differentiation has been observed. It is recognised that there are many books which by reason of their importance or popularity must be placed in each of the district libraries; but as far as possible definite subjects, as for example astronomy, or the French revolution, or' domestic economy, are represented by different books in the different libraries. The same principle of variation is applied in the selection of the newspapers, magazines, and other periodicals pro vided for the service of the various reading and news rooms. By this means each branch library becomes complementary or supplementary to all the others, and the total range of literature thus made available for the service of readers is largely increased. In order to render the collections thus formed as easily and generally accessible as possible, all persons who qualify as borrowers under the Rules are at liberty to draw books from any branch, though not from two at the same time. At each library the catalogues of all the others, as far as published, are at hand for consultation, and the student who has exhausted the resources of the library he usually visits is able to see there what books in his subject are avail-able in the other branch libraries. As a further convenience to borrowers, there has been instituted a daily service between all the branch libraries and a central point, by means of which any borrower is enabled to have books (other than novels) from any branch library sent to the library nearest his home, from which they are issued in the usual way.
