Librarianship As A Profession: A Paper (1884) by Henry Richard Tedder is a seminal work in the field of library science. Originally presented as a paper at the 1884 meeting of the Library Association of the United Kingdom, this book argues for the recognition of librarianship as a distinct profession. Tedder begins by examining the historical development of libraries and librarianship, from ancient times to the present day. He then discusses the various roles and responsibilities of librarians, including cataloguing, classification, and reference services. The bulk of the book is devoted to a detailed analysis of the qualifications and training required for librarianship. Tedder argues that librarians should be highly educated and possess a deep understanding of literature, history, and other subjects relevant to their work. He also advocates for the establishment of formal training programs and professional associations for librarians. Overall, Librarianship As A Profession is a landmark work that helped to establish librarianship as a respected profession. It remains an important resource for anyone interested in the history and development of library science.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
