Dr. Billings had founded well, and the Index Medicus always
received his support even while his energies were otherwise
directed. The range of his activities, both during his tenure as head
of the Library and after his retirement from the Army in 1895,
was phenomenal. They encompassed not only the operation of the

Library but also aspects of the 10th Census (1880), assisting the
organizers to staff the new Johns Hopkins Medicai School and
hospital and designing the hospital buildings, the organization and
direction of the New York Public Library, and chairmanship of
the Board of Trustees of the Carnegie Institution.
From the beginning, a large part of the responsibility and credit
for implementing Dr. Billings’ idea was shared by his colleague
and successor, Dr. Robert Fletcher, who carried on the work, with
a minor interruption, from 1879 until his retirement in 1912 at
