REPORT OF THE DELEGATE TO THE AMERICAN DOCUMENTATION INSTITUTE.

Taeuber, Irene B.
- Abstract
The American Documentation Institute was organized in 1937 to further all phases of documentation, with emphasis on microphotographic duplication in all its ramifications. Its status as a non-profit organization, formed on behalf of some sixty of the leading scientific and scholarly societies, councils and institutions, placed it in a strategic position to assume a position of leadership and to some extent co-ordination in the field of photographic reproduction when the war made the acquisition of original publications largely impossible. The operations during 1943 represented a continuation of those of previous years. The auxiliary publication of documents, made available as microfilm or photoprints on order, was continued, as was the reproduction of rare and out-of-print journals of a scientific or scholarly nature. Bibliofilm Service, formerly operated by the American Documentation Institute under co-operative agreement with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, is now being operated by the Library of the Department of Agriculture.
