Book excerpt: Excerpt from Books on Industrial Arts The selection has been made on the strength of our own experience as to the usefulness of the books listed and the character of the local patronage. Similar lists issued by other libraries have also been consulted and occasionally the judgment of individual experts has been solicited. The list covers the range of industrial and applied arts; books on fine arts having been left for future treatment. The expressed purpose of the Charles Skelton Fund, eu trusted to the care of the Library Trustees, directs the building up and maintenance of a library that should con sist of works, treatises on the arts and sciences, especially on Mechanics, Engineering, &c., the reading of which will inculcate virtues of honest industry and frugality. It is hoped that the publication of this list Will in a meas ure realize this expectation, that the attention of all those interested in the various local industries may be called to the resources of the library and that its usefulness Will be enhanced.
