The number of borrowers registered as entitled to borrow books for home use is now 4,839, of which 869 were added during the past year. Of this number 786 are holders of green or supplementary cards, which are used for the borrowing of any book except works of fiction, and 59 school teachers are entitled to 10 cards each for the withdrawal of books in con- nection with their school work.


The circulation for home use during the past year has amounted to 54,749 volumes. There have been bound and added to the shelves as books 129 volumes of magazines. Books in need of rebinding have also been sent to the bindery to the number of 196 volumes, while many hundreds of volumes have been kept in repair at the Library.


During the year the Library has continued to supply the South End Reading Room with new volumes from time to time, and within the past half dozen years, since the policy of such assistance was adopted by the board, nearly 500 volumes have been placed in that institution on what might be called a permanent loan. By a recent vote of the Board it has been decided to extend like aid to the new Fiske Memorial Library, recently established in Belleville. We have not as yet supplied it with any books, but probably will do so in the immediate future.


The question of a Reading Room for children is again being agitated. For a dozen years at least I have tried to point out the advantages of such an addition to the community, but of course, there are the drawbacks to be taken into consideration. Such a feature could not be established and main- tained without costing something. A room would have to be provided, of course, and from the construction of the building it would necessarily be entirely separate from all the other rooms and therefore not constantly

under the eye of any of the regular attendants. A children's department would require someone in attendance all the time, or the conditions would be like those of a school room, upon a teacher leaving her pupils in the room by themselves. Anyone knows something of the confusion and noise, not to say mischief, which is bound to occur even in the best disciplined school under such circumstances. In a Library it is even worse. Besides school children, who are accustomed to discipline of some sort, my assistants are constantly reporting pranks by boys ranging from perhaps ten years of age to (I regret to say) young manhood, who seem more intent on mischief, at times one might say malicious mischief, provided they can perform such without being detected. Of course, we expect and make allowances for the usual restlessness and innocent mischief, as you might call it, of young boys, but it is the older ones who keep us on the watch all the time. For these reasons it is very apparent that the room devoted to children should be under a sort of discipline somewhat like that of the public schools, all the time. In addition it would be necessary to put in some special furniture, shelving or such.


Tables appended to this report give more in detail Library statistics.


Respectfully, JOHN D. PARSONS, Librarian.
