Kister, Kenneth F. (Mrs.).

Carbon copy of typescript letter from Elizabeth Long to Mrs. Kenneth F. Kister, librarian at The Arthur and Elizabeth Schlesinger Library at Radcliffe College regarding the Lady Aberdeen Library. Long makes reference to the enclosure of a brief history about the library and offers some information about setbacks and successes. Of note is a reference to Doris Lewis and the University of Waterloo Library: "Special libraries are blossoming out everywhere. Waterloo is a young, progressive university, and I am sure the Chief Librarian, Mrs. Doris Lewis, will get a good backing for extending our collection into a most valuable information centre on the history of women."
