BRITISH KINEMATOGRAPHY
VOLUME 18, No. 2
FEBRUARY, 195
DO YOU USE YOUR LIBRARY?
The B.K.S. Library consists of some five hundred volumes which cover every facet of kinematography from the purely technical to the cultural, as well as trade and technical periodicals from many countries. At Dean Street, in the heart of the Film Industry, the library well patronised and often at lunch times and in early evening was very popular.
Our compulsory move to the far end of Piccadilly has caused a marked falling off in the number of callers and it is felt that more use could be made ot the postal facilities offered.
Many new books have been added to the library since the catalogue was printed and it is intended to produce a new edition very soon. Meanwhile we hope that many of our members will take advantage of this right of membership a postcard to the Librarian at 117 Piccadilly will bring any volume on our lists to your doorstep by return of post. And if you ask for something worthwhile which is not in the library, it will be regarded by the Library Committee as a strong hint that it should be purchased without delay !
R. J. T. Brown. Chairman, Library Committee.
