Historians Urged to Use Research Department
Discussing factors which he believes all historians should know, the director of KU libraries last night said the research department should be utilized more by historians.
Thomas R. Buckman spoke at the Phi Alpha Theta honorary history fraternity banquet.
"THE HISTORIAN is a modest man," Buckman said. "He believes in research."
Buckman defined a research library as "a collection of useful books." It is not, he said, merely a library with a high circulation of books.
He said that today's student seldom has time to read a book from cover to cover. Buckman cited the changing structure of secondary education and the honors programs.
BUCKMAN EXPLAINED that 40 years ago it was thought that libraries were being perfected. He said former librarians thought that it was expedient for students to use the card catalog to obtain books.
Buckman said that opinion is being modified and even abandoned. He said libraries are adopting more cataloging and classification systems.
Buckman explained that scholars now cannot read all that is written in their fields.
He said that the average life span of books is only one hundred years. This has led to the use of photography by libraries.
Buckman predicted that tomorrow's libraries will have extensive machine operations. He said that fully automated regional information centers will come into existence.
