Answer 1

Answer:

D. Drury

The basic principle, which still governs the selection of reading material for a library, was enunciated by Drury in 1930. It states: "To provide the right book to the right reader at the right time”. The reader is the central character. A document is right or otherwise in relation to the reader.
