Woolmer, J. Howard, 1929-

"Believe me, I have no objections to having my name associated with your bibliography. My problem is simply one of time. I haven't been able to do any work on my Malcolm Lowry project for the past two or three months;..." "As far as publishing the bibliography is concerned, I am still very much interested in doing this. The only problem here would be if the book was too big physically for us to handle."

"I think that I could go along with your suggestion about the two indexes for poetry titles. This would mean that anyone using the book would have to check two indexes rather than one but that isn't an insurmountable obstacle."

"Thanks for your letters. I'm not quite sure what to tell you about the 'Friends of the Library' in Nashville. Very often these organizations consist of people with very good intentions but without very much knowledge of books or of the Library's real needs."

"I've sent a copy of Chelsea 35 to Vaderbilt. I had a copy that was unsigned and sent them that one, so you owe me nothing for it."

"Dr. Eddy did send me your typescripts and I have them here in safe keeping. He did not, however, send me the comments that you made on the material."

"Upon checking my records, I find that I have 239 pages of original typescript and 130 pages of carbon. I would like to send the carbons to you by registered mail for your comments..."

"My Fugitive Catalogue was based on my own collection; I'm sure you realize how difficult it is to find copies of your early books."

"I'm presently in touch with a University Library about your typescripts, but they haven't yet made a decision;..."

"The library that I offered the typescripts to is definitely interested but, like most libraries this year, is short of funds."

"No, I didn't offer the manuscripts to Buffalo and certainly won't now."
