Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wellesley College Bulletin, Vol. 2: Annual Reports President and Treasurer 1915-16 I have the honor to submit my fifth report as President of Wellesley College, covering the year ending June 30, 1916. Much interesting material supplementing this report will be found in the reports of the Dean, the Chairman of the Graduate Committee, the Librarian, and the Director of Halls of Resi dence, published herewith. On March 16, 1916, the Librarian of the College, Henrietta St. Barbe Brooks, died at her home after a long illness. Because of physical disability Miss Brooks at her own suggestion gave only half time to the College during the academic year 1914 - 15. In April, 1915, increasing weakness made it necessary for her to give up her work altogether, and while she gave valuable counsel to the library staff until the time of her death, she was not able to return to the Library after the spring of 1915. Miss Brooks was appointed assistant librarian in 1903, acting librarian in 1909, and upon the death of the librarian, Caroline F. Pierce, she was appointed librarian in 1911. The minute adopted by the Academic Council admirably characterizes Miss Brooks' administration of the Library and is given in full.
