Bernard Butler) With exterior construction com- pleted, the Clements Memorial library again becomes a topic of inquiry Many misapprehensions have arisen about the real character of this build- ing and of the collection which it is to house. To cear up any misconcep- tions that may have arisen and to ex- pand upon the general existing knowl- edge of the library, Librarian William W. Bishop yesterday outlined more thoroughly the nature and purpose of the institution which is about to be made,a valuable part of the facilities of the University. A Rare Collection "First of all," said Mr. Bishop, "the real scarcity of the materials for early United States history should be em- phasized. There are but few reprints of many of the old documents and no reprints of many 'others. Due to that fact, according to Mr. Bishop, during the past few years these documents and other historical sources have become highly prized. "Pamphlets of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries of Ameri- can history," said the librarian, "were a most effective and definite means of influencing public opinion. Today these pamphlets of fundamental his-. torical importance now run as high as $100 to $200 each. "You can appreciate the Clements library only when you understand the difficult task and the great cost en- tailed in the collection," declared Mr. Bishop. "A man of moderate means would not be able to amass such a collection. "Mr. Clements has been able to dis- tinguish the fundamental from the trivial. He has exerted great persist- ence and care over a long period of years. He has evidenced also a high sense of scholarship in differentiating between the important and unimport- ant. He has brought together the fundamental things from which history must be written," Mr. Bishop con- tinued. Referring more specifically to ex- amples of some of 'the valuable ma- terials in the Clements' collection, Mr. Bishop cited Mort's "Relation of Plym- outh Plantation," which is the earliest printed account (published in 1624) of the first three years of struggle, suffering and privation that the Pil- grims experienced at Plymouth after their landing. "The securing of such books as these must cover a long period of years for it is only every 20 years or so that one is able to make such a find. Regent Clements bought this book in London during the sum- mer of 1921," said Mr. Bishop. Library Contents Variedl In enumerating the classifications into which the books of the Clements' collection fall, Mr. Bishop said that there are 1200 volumes of extreme rarity, chiefly from the discovery per- iod; 3,000 less rare books of the late colonial and revolutionary years; more than 2,500 pamphlets and con- temporary accounts of the Revolu- tion; a large collection of eighteenth century newspapers, mostly weeklies and chiefly published in New England states; a very larg collection in- cluding 200 volumes of manuscripts by the Earl of Shelburne. and a large collection of modern books on Ameri- can history. Mr. Bishop referred to another val- uable addition, an amazing collection of maps of the Revolution. These were' amassed by Henry Stevens, a London expert who spent 40 years in gathering them. Further, the library will contain, said Mr. Bishop, "the best working collection of bibliographies in the field of American History I have seen." Mr. Bishop emphasized the fact that "the material is of such a character that it cannot be used in the ordinary library way." The collection must be used under proper safeguards With this end in view an expert curator will be employed. 4 ; o#UI Building of Italian Design Considering the structural arrange- ment and design of the :building it.' self, the library is recognized as of the Italian Renaissance design, cover- ing a plot approximately 80 by 100 feet and rising two stories high. The original plans for the facade have been changed somewhat from the broad terrace with a colonade to a narrower approach to the pillared loggia. Immediately upon entering the bronze doors, similar to those of the new Detroit public library, one will confront the main reading and exhi- bition room which will be finished in wood panel work. The ceiling will be deeply coffered and the room will have lighting of the latest approved method. This large rom is about 36 by 90 feet and extends to the roof. On this same'floor will also be locat- ed the offices of the professor of Amer- ican history together with one for the curator.. On the second floor will be found the administrative officeswwhere col- lecting and cataloguing will be car- ried on. Offices for another professor of American history will occupy a part of this floor together with a map room and cases containing reprints of valuable books kept for students' use.

Extensive stock rooms are also includ- ed where files of early newspapers which form one of the richest stores of the collection are to be kept. The building was designed with the fundamental idea of simplicity and usefulness in construction and beauty of architecture. Curator to Be Secured In speaking of the plans for the use of the building, Mr. Bishop stated the present idea is to open the build- ing during the day to display different exhibits and to allow only the most advanced students of hstory to use the material. Under the direction of the curator, his assistants and oth- ers, the University intends to publish at intervals issues of a series of pa- pers based upon the material con- tained in the Clements collection. The principal, work of the curator, how- ever, the librarian pointed out, will probably ie in taking care of the cor- respondence about the sources in the collection, inquiries which will come from all over the world. Mr. Clement's collection is now in! Bay City. "There is little chance the library will open before the 1923 Commencement. Even if the build- ing were opened when finished in the late winter or early spring, the ma- terial would not be available for stu- dent use until next summer or fall," Mr. Bishop announced. The librarian stressed particularly the value of Regent Clements' ,'gift both to the University and to the state.
