Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Dedication of the New Building of the Boston Medical Library January 12, 1901 Members of the Boston Medical Library, Our Invited Guests, Ladies and Gentlemen: - By the liberality of many citizens, women as well as men, whose gifts we gratefully acknowledge, and by the free offerings of our professional brethren, we have erected this commodious and safe depository for our medical library. It is with a peculiar feeling of thankfulness that I officially welcome here the physicians of Boston and of New England. The object for which we have striven is so vital to our welfare that a certain solemnity is appropriately mingled with our gratitude. Over and over again, in these later years of financial prosperity, have we seen vast schemes of benevolence, of religion and of education begun and finished promptly by the munificence of a single wealthy citizen. Such has not been our good fortune. We have received but one large gift and that from a lady who wishes to remain unknown. "Inter tedia et Iabores," literally, have the doctors toiled to make this library and to give it a safe and suitable building. Our librarian will detail to you, as he alone can do, the long years of effort by which he has raised this to the fourth place among the medical libraries of this country. It is my simple duty to welcome you here, and to recount, briefly, the importance and the advantages of our work. A medical library is peculiar in that it must also be a contemporary and a periodical library. The present is even more valuable to it than the past, although the records of the past are inestimable.
