G. Morărescu’s article is a significant account of the branch libraries of the “Lucian Blaga” Central University Library – libraries that serve the departments of the “Babeş-Bolyai” University. The organization, services, collections, and personnel of a branch library is presented in connection to those of a specialized library, which comprises documents specialized in narrow fields, and offers services to a very specialized group of users. From the detailed presentation of the entire organizational system of a branch library, most notable is the discussion of the special place and role of a branch librarian (as compared to that of a general librarian), who, similarly to a specialized librarian, must be a professional both in information and library science, and in the department’s special field of research.
