Music Division of Library Shows Substantial
Growth During Last Fiscal Year
The final arrangements for "Say It With
Music" Week, which begins on February 11 and
ends on February 18, have been completed. The
publisher, Irving Berlin, Inc., is receiving the
co-operation of the entire trade and already
there have been arranged hundreds of window
displays. On the counters, too, the titles of
"Say It With Music" will be given a conspicu-
ous position, and this, together with some spe-
cial and unique advertising material, will aid
in attracting attention to the number. Of course,
the usual co-operation of vaudeville artists,
bands and orchestras, theatres, motion picture
houses and other channels has been assured,
and the coming drive, seemingly, will be one
of the most successful ever inaugurated by the
publisher.
The annual report of Herbert Putnam, Libra-
rian of Congress, just issued, shows substantial
growth of the music division. The accessions
for the year ending June 30, 1921, were 34,814,
including 32,191 on music, 1,856 on literature of
music and 767 on instruction. On June 30 the
music division contained 919,041 volumes,
pamphlets and pieces, of which 856,688 were
music.
%
Among notable accessions to the music divi-
sion during the last year was a fine collection
of original manuscripts by American composers.
Many other gifts of original autographed
choruses of Richard Wagner's "Gastmahl der
Apostel" and four autographed songs by Franz
Schubert, composed in 1816, "Fruhling," "Auf
den Tod einer Nachtigall," "Die Knabenzeit,"
and "Winterlied."
