The article discusses the book "Living With Books. The Art of Book Selection," by Helen E. Haines. The subtitle of this book indicates that it is primarily a manual for library-school students and for those "whose work lies with books and readers in educational or social fields or in book-trade relationship." As such it touches upon the history of publishing, book-selling, and library service; it deals with the physical make-up of books, with bibliography reviewing, and the fine art of annotation; it devises and suggests standards by which books shall be selected.
