The Committee on Branch Libraries, formerly the Circulation Department Committee, and prior to that, the Committee on Circulation, oversees the operation of the circulating libraries in the N.Y.P.L. system. It was established in 1901 as a standing committee of the Board of Trustees and today consists of seven members, of whom at least a majority must be trustees. In 1978 the Committee on Branch Libraries was replaced by the Branch Libraries Council as a special advisory committee of the Corporation. Records consist of correspondence and minutes pertaining to the Branch Libraries. Correspondence & Book Balances, arranged in rough chronological order, consist of correspondence, much of it with the City of New York Board of Estimate regarding real estate, and figures on book appropriations. The Minutes are records of Committee meetings. There are no records for the period from 1928 to 1967. less
