include the story of twenty–five centuries of 
Italian education and schools, as reproduced 
directly from the Museo’s most important ma­
terial, some of which may never again be avail­
able in the original. There will be reproduc­
tions of works of art, rare documents, and a 
survey of modem educational institutions. The 
most interesting illustrations will be available 
as slides and will accompany the volume. This 
important publication should be of interest to 
most types of libraries and schools, as well as 
to teachers and scholars. The proceeds are to 
be used toward the restoration of the Museo. 
All subscribers will be listed in the volume.

Reservations may be made with the Centro 
Didattico Nazionale di Studi e Documentazione, 
Palazzo Gerini, Via Buonarroti, 10, Firenze, 
Italia. The volume with slides, postpaid, is 
priced at $10, and will be mailed immediately 
upon publication. (Payment may be made to 
bank account 15-1, Agency A, Banco di Roma, 
Piazza Salvemini, Firenze, Italia, but addressed 
to the Centro Didattico Nazionale di Studi e 
Documentazione itself at the address given 
earlier.)—Anne V. Marinetti, Member of A.L.A. 
Special Committee to Aid Italian Libraries.
