BERNIER, Catherine: Lucien Herr. An irregular portray of the French contemporary of Ervin Szabó

(Translated by Katalin Haraszti)

Könyvtári Figyelő (Library Review), 15. (51), 2005. no. 4. pp. 857 – 862.

Lucien Herr (1864-1926) was the chief librarian of the library of the Ecole Normale Superieure. He was a committed professional with a great knowledge. At the turn of the 19 th and 20 th centuries, his attention was drawn to the same issues concerning the development of libraries as Ervin Szabo, the founder of the Hungarian public library network. The study presents Herr as a socialist intellectual, through his activities as a committed intellectual leader.
