REFERENCE BOOKS

The list of reference books given below makes no pretension to being a complete bibliography to the problems of college life, but is simply a list of books, useful as aids in various ways in a course in this field, which the average college library will have, or can easily obtain. No account has been taken of the many important articles in this field which are to be found in the magazines, as these can easily be found through The Reader's Guide to Periodical Literature and Poole's Index to Periodical Literature. Much valuable material is also to be had from histories and books descriptive of individual colleges, from annual reports of college presidents and deans, and from published proceedings of educational associations.
