Word or image?

Abstract

IT WAS GOOD to see Fiction and the reading public (Q D Leavis) mentioned in NLW (F T Bell: ‘Conversation in a train’, October 1974), an indication of this journal's panoptic qualities. It is a book which ought to be the vade mecum of every practising librarian, within easy reach on his desk, yet it enjoys almost total neglect by the pro‐fession and—more surprisingly—it is missing from these essential reading lists so beloved of library schools. Yet perhaps not so surprising; as a profession we have been traditionally uncouth.
