What reading level is Our Literary Deluge And Some of Its Deeper Waters book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But the librarian has within his walls the world's store of great and good books.
He likes nothing better than to see his readers take them home, and in numberless ways he can induce them to do so. Mr. Dana has employed the avail- able methods with the utmost skill.
These steps in libraries should serve as the begin- ning of a movement eventually to become general, and whose coming the librarians' annual meetings may accelerate, until they become a still more benefi- cent force in the communiti...es where they exercise their oiifices. Not one of them but will acknowledge how wearisome becomes the task of giving out to readers trivial and commonplace literature, which literally is here to-day and gone to-morrow ; while books of power and permanence, books that will endure while civiUzation lasts, stand neglected on their shelves.
There is, after all, some refuge from this deluge — an ark quite as seaworthy and capacious as the one Noah built, would men only get on board. The printing press and the bindery may send forth upon THE BURNING QUESTION in the patient public their thousands of new books every year ; but it is not necessary that our homes and firesides shall be invaded.
