Reading Research and Librarianship - A History and Analysis

?Dr. Karetzky's study is a conscientious examination of the early years of reading research, covering the period from 1900 to 1939, with its major focus on the work done in the 1930s at the University of Chicago Graduate Library School. In that context, primary attention is ... on the writings and influence of Douglas Waples and Louis Round Wilson, and on those whose work stemmed from the pioneering vision and accomplishment of these two scholars.?-The Library Quarterly
