Series I: Annual Reports,, 1943-1956, 1961-1966

Summary: Contained in this series are the Annual Reports of the Librarian of the University, running from the fiscal year 1943-44 to 1965-66. There are some notable gaps in the series; Annual Reports for 1945-46, 1946-47, and 1956-57 through 1960-61 are missing. These reports relate the activities of the library as a whole, its departments, and its units and were issued for accountability purposes. From 1949-50 onwards, in addition to the report itself, the files also contain reports from individual library departments (including circulation, reference, order and periodical, and cataloging) and library units (including the NJ College for Women and the report of the law librarian). Its inclusion in the files is inconsistent. In other words, though there is almost always some of this supporting material included in a file, that material varies from year to year.
