Letter to Harvey Cushing

Letter to Harvey Cushing from Nicholas Murray Butler, National Committee of the United States for the Restoration of the University of Louvain, 407 West 117th Street, New York, New York, USA. Butler responds to Cushing's inquiries about the project to rebuild the library at the University of Louvain. Osler's involvement in the project was likely due to early refugees who went to Oxford from Louvain, and who appealed to him for help in the matter. [For more details see CUS417/22.8]

Letter to Harvey Cushing

Letter to Harvey Cushing from Ernest A. Baker, School of Librarianship, University of London, London, England. Baker never knew of Osler's scheme for a "College of the Book." Osler was a great friend of John MacAlister, who took an active part in the foundation of the School of Librarianship, and it is very possible that the two men had often talked over the matter. Includes manuscript notes.

He suspects that Osler never pursued this scheme because it would have competed with the new school of Librarianship at the University of London. He suggests that Cushing consult "The Library," by John MacAlister.
