Abstract

A GENEROUS offer to replace, so far as possible, the many volumes in the section of non-English books and periodicals which have been destroyed by enemy action in the British Museum has been made by the Allied Governments in London. The offer was put forward by Dr. Philip Argenti, honorary attache to the Greek Embassy, at a recent meeting of the Books and Periodicals Commission of the Conference of Allied Ministers of Education. Representatives of the Allied Nations pledged their governments to replace, after the War, as a gift, to the best of their abilities, the periodicals and books in their respective languages damaged or destroyed by air attack. The Museum has been invited to submit a list of such periodicals and books to the Commission, classified according to their languages.
