Abstract:

The Care of Books written by John Willis Clark is a classic work in the field of library science.By introducing its content, the author thinks that this book can offer inspirations, help expand the research range, drawattention to the collection and use of ‘marginalized historical materials’ and integrate new
appropriate research methods of other disciplines. The Chinese edition of The Care of Books was published more than 100 years after its original. Lamenting on the lateness as such, the author appeals that we should pay more attention to the translation and the publication of western classical works in the field of library science.
