ARCHIVIST OF THE HALL OF RECORDS 35

were left behind to be destroyed. We were officially notified that the
records had been sold as waste paper on September 8, 1948.

UNEMPLOYMENT COMPENSATION DIVISION, DEPARTMENT OF EMPLOY-
MENT SECURITY

On November 29, 1948, we were offered certain records of the Divi'
sion of Unemployment Compensation of the Department of Employment
Security. These were similar to records which had been destroyed in pre'
vious years. They were refused and on February 11, 1949, we received
notice that the following materials had been destroyed:

Wage Record Cards, 1943, 1200 boxes.

Employer Payrolls (Form U C 16), 1943, 28 boxes.

Miscellaneous Items, 1943, 20 boxes.

On June 8, 1949, we received a telephone call from the Director of
the Division informing us that his office was moving to other quarters. He
wanted permission to destroy certain records which were no longer of
administrative value rather than rent storage space for them and move
them to this space. This request was not acted upon until the beginning
of the new fiscal year.

LIBRARY

Exclusive of the publications of State agencies, which are considered
this year in a separate section of this report, our library continued to grow
during the past fiscal year at approximately the rate we have come to
consider as normal. Some of the materials, however, were of extraordinary
value, especially the volumes of Acts of Assembly, Proceedings of the
House and Senate of Maryland, and Documents of the House and Senate,
which were gifts of the Register of Wills of Frederick County and the
Clerk of the Court of Somerset County. Some of these volumes, especially
those containing the so-called "Documents", are quite rare. While we do
not yet have complete series of-these publications of the General Assembly
so necessary to our work, we have during the past year narrowed some of
the wider lacunae.
