Report of Water Commissioners
To the Citizens of Hatfield :
Your Water Board wishes to make the following report :
The year 1946 has been very satisfactorily carried out, even though material and labor at times was a problem.
The house services on Main Street have all been re- newed with copper tubing, due to the fact of new road contsruction. It was decided better to make this change prior to your road construction rather than to be com- pelled to break the road surface at a later time.
Your Water Board was again asked to inclose in the Town Warrant, the reconstruction of your water system as per plan on specification of Tighe and Bond, Engineers of Holyoke.
Your Board has also appointed Stanley Filipek, your new Water Rent Collector. He being a veteran of good standing, we have found him capable to carry out the duties of Collector.
The renewals of all services as of January 1, 1947, will have to be applied for by written application placed with the Board of Commissioners.
Respectfully submitted,
SIMEON M. BOURDON, Chm., THADDEUS KABAT, Clk., RAYMOND E. BALISE, Water Commissioners.

Library Report
-
To the Trustees of the Public Library :
It is again my privilege to submit the annual report as librarian of the Public Library.
A major improvement has been accomplished this year at minimum cost. After careful planning new cases have been built which have made it possible to give im- proved service in two ways. They have alleviated the crowded condition of the former inadequate number of shelves and allowed a much more suitable and simplified arrangement of books. The serious lack of space which threatened the appearance of the library has been elimin- ated and now the neat appearance may be maintained. With the increase in the number of cases the arrangement of books can again follow sectionalization. Now anyone desiring adventure fiction can go to that section and find a complete selection, so may the person seeking referance books, text books or any other form of literature.
Again we urge that a reading room be added to our facilities. Everything must be done to keep the Hatfield library at the peak of efficiency and service. The advant- ages would be numerous including additional space for fu- ture expansion, complete separation for reference and text books where there would not be the usual distrac- tions to disturb the reference worker who needs quiet. Most important of all it would be invaluable for our school pupils who very much need a study and reference room which would complement their formal education in the school.
37
The statistical report for the past year in as follows : 489 new books and 33 periodicals have been catalogued and put into circulation. Of these books, 270 were for a- dults and 219 juvenile.
The circulation of books and periodicals for the year was:
Juvenile Fiction
8024
Juvenile Non-Fiction
2208
Adult Fiction
8547
Adult Non-Fiction
2984
Book Mobile
1187
Total Circulation
22870
The total number of registered borrowers is 843.
The library is open Monday and Friday from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. for adults. Wednesday from 12:00 to 1:00 p.m. for pupils of the outlying districts who attend school in the center, and from 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. for all adults and children.
I wish to express my deepest appreciation to our Trustees and to Mrs Margaret Cantwell for their sincere cooperation.
Respectfully submitted,
THERESA M. GODIN,
Librarian
