"On the supply of printed books from the library to the reading room of the British Museum" by an unspecified author is a correspondence-based publication likely crafted in the mid-19th century. The text delves into the management issues pertaining to the supply of printed books within the British Museum's Reading Room. It centers around the debate over the new ticketing system for procuring books, highlighting operational procedures and rules through a series of exchanges between Sir Nicholas Harris Nicolas and Mr. Panizzi, the Keeper of the Printed Books Department. The correspondence offers a detailed examination of the challenges readers faced while accessing materials at the British Museum and the administrative responses those challenges elicited. It features Sir Nicholas Harris Nicolas's complaints about delays in receiving requested books and the perceived shortcomings of the new ticketing regulations established by Mr. Panizzi. As the dialogue unfolds, it reveals the frustrations of both parties, with Nicolas arguing for simplification and Panizzi defending the necessity of the detailed regulations to improve efficiency. Through these exchanges, the book ultimately provides insight into the complexities of library management and the balancing act between user convenience and administrative control.
