...desire to protest against the custom of marking up the Library books. I very seldom take out a book but I find it defaced by some would-be commentator; such highly aesthetic notes as "Good," "Admirable," "This is fine," are met on almost every page. The only historical precedent for such action I can think of is the appropriation by the schoolmen of the manuscripts of the classical authors for their own worthless scribblings.
