Excerpt from New York State Library 94th Annual Report, 1911 This document nominally reports on the State Library for the year ending September 30, 1911. Actually it deals with but the last half of the year, for on March 29, 1911, the Library was almost totally destroyed by fire. The manuscript, ready for print ing, of the usual detailed report for the year ending September 30, 1910, was burned. The summary of it in the seventh annual report of the New York State Education Department, in the chapters en titled The New York State Library and Educational Extension (pages 237 - 56) must now suffice. For the year ending September 30, 1911, all records, statistics, correspondence and data from which might have been prepared a futile report for the first Six months, perished with the books and manuscripts they would have recorded.
