TOWN OF COLRAIN ANNUAL REPORTS
REPORT OF LIBRARIAN
To the Trustees of the Griswold Memorial Library :
Herewith is submitted the report of the Librarian for the year ending December 31, 1937.
The total circulation for the year has been 9,377, adult 5,925 and juvenile 3,452. Sixty-three five-book State Reading Cer- tificates and four Honor Certificates have been issued .. This means that the school children have read and reported on 315 books of required reading.
Fourteen different magazines can be found on the Library tables and fifty-six new books have been added by purchase. We have not been able to buy as many books as usual this year, owing to lack of funds. When Mr. Joseph Griswold endowed the Library he planned for an income which, with an appropriation from the town, would be sufficient to maintain the Library and provide for its needs, but, in the Library, as elsewhere, invest- ments have depreciated in value so that the present income is in- adequate to meet the demands.
There is an increasing call among the High School pupils for books of reference and non-fiction, and this, with the general reading of the public, means that there is a need of more money to be used for books. No definite sum is specified for this pur- pose, as the running expenses of the Library have to be paid first, and the uncertain balance can then be used for books.
We have recently received an offer from Miss E. Louise Jones, State Library Adviser of Division of Public Libraries, of a three month's loan of about twenty-five books of up-to-date non-fiction. This is in addition to loans for individual borrowers. Miss Jones tries to help solve the problems of the small Library, and conducts the Round Table at the meetings of the Connecti- cut Valley Library Club. The Librarian attended the meeting of this Club held last October in Greenfield.
Respectfully submitted,
BERTHA L. READ, Librarian.
