Excerpt from Proceedings of the Linnean Society of New South Wales, Vol. 45: For the Year 1920, With Thirty-Two Plates and 138 Text-Figures Concomitantly with the growth of the Society's library, and of the natural accumulation of its reserve-stock of publications, we have, for some years past, felt a pressing need for more shelf-room, and more storage - room. During the recess, the Council has provided for some important structural alterations in the Society's Hall, to meet these and other requirements, together with the installation of the electric light, and for some necessary, new lavatory arrangements. These have been completed in a very satisfactory manner by the contractor, Mr. James Leckie, under the able superintendence of the architect. Mr. A. IV. Warden, in time for the Annual Meeting.
