Excerpt from Training for Librarianship

Within six years three other schools were Opened. The Columbia College school was transferred to the New York State Library at Albany, where it has since remained. The schools Opened at Pratt, Drexel, and Armour institutes were all connected with the institute libraries, which were for circulation as well as reference. Pratt Institute for a number of years conducted the leading circulating library of Brooklyn as there was no public library in the city. This connection with public circulating libraries was the immediate reason for a differentia tion in the character and methods of these three schools, which had not the large and important book resources of a college or reference library to draw upon, but were enabled, on the other hand, to provide their students with actual practice in the methods of circulating libraries and with contact with the public at all the points of contact found in a free circulating library containing a reference department.

Excerpt from Training for Librarianship

The next significant mention seems to be in the Proceedings of the meeting of the Library Association of the United Kingdom in London in 1877. At this meeting C. H. Robarts, of All Souls College, Oxford, expressed a hope for the rise of a school of highly trained students in bibliographical knowledge.
