In the inaugural conference of proceedings of the 11th International Congress of Libraries and Bibliography, celebrated jointly in Madrid and Barcelona in May 1935, Spanish philosopher José Ortega y Gasset gave a lecture, or to be more exact, read his essay The Mission of the Librarian, a text which in spite of the passage of 70 years continues to be of enormous interest and relevance. Required reading for librarians and recommended for all library users.
