Social Service Films in the Public Library

Abstract

SOCIAL service, as a term, is new, while the modern outlook is as new as the term. It suggests a scientist at his test tubes or a statistician at his tables; a voluntary ambulance at the roadside or a nurse at the Child Welfare Centre. In its narrowest sense it is an extension and enlargement of the older charitable institutions; in its widest sense it covers practically the whole gamut of human enterprise.
