The volumes of the International Library of Technology are made up of Instruction Papers, or Sections, comprising the various courses of instruction {or students of the International Correspondence Schools. The original manuscript for each Instruction Paper is prepared by a person thoroughly qualified, both technically and by experience, to write with authority on his subject. In many cases the writer is regularly employed elsewhere in practical work and writes for us during spare the. The manuscripts 'are then carefully edited to make them suitable for, correspondence work.
The only qualification for enrolment as a student in these Schools is the ability to read English and to write intelligibly the answers to the Examination Questions. Hence, our stu dents are of all grades of education, and our Instruction Papers are, therefore, written in the simplest possible language so as to make them readily understood by all students. If tech nical expressions are essential to a thorough understanding of the subject, they are clearly explained when first introduced.
