Abstract

Description

In 1834 the faculty of the MCG sent faculty member Dr. Louis A. Dugas to Europe to purchase books for the college library. Dr. Dugas assumed the role of librarian by cataloging the books and establishing rules for the library. After acquiring more books and journals for the MCG library, Dr. Dugas created a new record book of in 1857. The library included books the college had purchased as well as books belonging to the faculty. The library record book is arranged by author name or journal and indicates which bookcase the items are shelved. The first page of the record book lists the rules of the library (p. 4 of the PDF).
