Abstract

D.S.I.R. has been charged with the planning of a national lending library for science and technology. The purpose of this library will be to help users of scientific literature and bibliographical organizations to obtain the literature which is not available locally. The library will take over from the Science Museum Library the responsibility for providing a lending service and it will also take over from that library some of its literature. The new library will be located outside the London Area and will aim at providing a postal lending service for all types of organizations.
