Abstract
Annual meeting THE University and Research Section of the JL Library Association held its annual conference at Carlyle Hostel, Edinburgh, during September 15–19. It was the first time that the Section had met in Scotland, and members took full advantage of the opportunity of visiting the many fine libraries and scholarly institutions in Edinburgh. The Section was welcomed by the principal of the University of Edinburgh, Sir Edward Appleton, at a reception in the Upper Library of the University. Sir Edward referred in his address to the spate of scientific literature confronting the research worker, and also urged the setting up of some central body to maintain a register of translati9ns of papers originally written in unfamiliar languages.
