    An account of some early libraries and book collections at the Cape of Good Hope, with special reference to the establishment of the South African Public Library
    (Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 1972-10) Tyrrell-Glynn, William Henry Patrick Aloysius; Ehlers, D. L.; Stellenbosch University. Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences. Dept. of Information Science.
    ENGLISH ABSTRACT: With the exception of the church, the South African Public Library is by far the oldest public institution in South Africa. It may also claim to be one of the earliest "free" public libraries in the world, and it's foundation in 1818 on the proceeds of a Wine Tax is quite unique in the annals of library history.

    Die skoolbiblioteekwese vir blankes in Kaapland : 'n historiese en evaluerende studie
    (Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 1975) Burger, Josua Johannes Gerhardus; Ehlers, D. L.; Stellenbosch University. Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences. Dept. of Information Science.
    AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: 0mdat vandag algemeen aanvaar word dat 'n skoolbiblioteek veel meer behels as 'n versameling boeke in 'n skool, kan daar aangeneem word dat skoolbiblioteke in die moderne sin van die woord voor 1900 in die Westerse wereld nie bestaan het nie. Voor hierdie datum was daar, sover vasgestel kan word, nerens n vaste beleid met betrekking tot die daarstellirig van skoolbiblioteke of die voorsiening van boeke aan sodanige biblioteke nie. In die negentigerjare van die vorige eeu is maar eers begin met die professionele opleiding van bibliotekarisse deur Melvil Dewey te Albany en deur die Pratt-Instituut in Brooklyn (V.S.A.). Die eerste professioneel-opgeleide bibliotekarts is in 1900 aan die Erasmus High School in Brooklyn aangestel. 1 ) Sodoende het n onontbeerlike komponent vir die doeltreffende funksionering van die skoolbiblioteek, nl. die opgeleide bibliotekaris, sy verskyning op die gebied van die skoolbiblioteekwese gemaak.
