Srila Prabhupada Letter to Ramesvara dasa, 14th November 1975

“The report of the BBT Library Party is very encouraging to me that the main library of Harvard told us they would be honored to complete the collection of our books. Just see. This is wonderful. Still University of New Brunswick has ordered our books even though they do not order religious books. This is a success. This quote by the head of their religion department of Oberlin is very important: ‘I think the best feature of the Hare Krsna movement is that it is providing scholars with authorized translations of the rarest books on Krsna bhakti.’ This should be quoted and printed in a pamphlet. Also the fact that at Colorado Springs Library, eight volumes of their Bhagavatam had been taken out seven times in the past year. This should be published. You print one poster, big type and put the quotation of the Oberlin professor. You can title it How Our Books Are Being Received and have the quotation of the professor, the professor's remarks. This will be a good advertisement for our books.”
