I have written the foregoing not in a spirit of complaint, but to point out a situation that is not only embarrassing but a definite exigency in our own library. I realize fully the difficulties and the responsibilities of the appropriating bodies in these times, and our condition is not any worse than the majority of our sister libraries and undoubtedly it is better than many. But it is nevertheless a matter of very serious concern.
Book Stock
Though 7,951 books were added through purchase and gifts dur- ing 1934, our stock was increased by only 1,110 books, due to the unusually large number of withdrawals, 6,841 books being dis-

carded. These discards came chiefly from the branches, and were almost entirely books in dirty and dilapidated condition, with miss- ing pages, set aside by the F.E.R.A. mending crew during their examination of the shelves. As a result, many of the branches ended the year with fewer books in their collections than at the beginning. The total book stock amounted at the end of the year to 102,061 volumes. Probably the most noteworthy addition to the library was a full set of the decisions of the Supreme Court of Massachusetts, commonly called the Massachusetts Reports, and the Massachusetts Digest of these same reports. These, shelved in one of the balcony alcoves, have already had extensive use. Special attention this year has also been given to building up and properly cataloging our collection of pictures, for which there is a steady call.
Use of the Library
The total number of borrowers' cards in active use at the end of the year was 25,951, only 37 less than the figures of 1933. The total circulation of books from all the various agencies of the library for 1934 was 847,399 as against 901,823 the previous year, a loss of 54,424 or 6 per cent. This is the first annual report of the library since 1923 to record a loss instead of a gain in circu- lation. The per capita circulation, 11, though slightly less than last year is still much higher than the average for public libraries. Through the privilege of the inter-library loan system, we have borrowed more books from other libraries in metropolitan Boston than usual and we have loaned more books to smaller libraries, notably Weymouth, Braintree, Hingham and Cohasset. There has been no apparent diminution in the use of our reading room facili- ties nor in the demands for reference service.
Branches
We have been extremely fortunate in maintaining our branch service intact through these depression years, not even having had to curtail the hours they are open. While most of the branches suffered losses in home use of books, the Wollaston, the Norfolk Downs and the Lakin Square branches actually had gains of be- tween two and three per cent over any previous year, something for the librarians of these branches to point to with pride. While only 40 per cent of the book stock is in the branches, the branch circulation is 67 per cent of the total. The lot of the branch libra- rian is not a happy one in the face of the demands for books, especially the new books. And that of the chief librarian is also embarrassing in having to refuse requests and prune down orders, while he recognizes how legitimate these requests are.
The branch librarians are very much alive to the needs of their communities and extremely anxious to satisfy their patrons, and naturally enough feel it keenly when disappointed borrowers com- ment reproachfully on the inadequacy of their book resources. Though we have a branch rotation system for new fiction and some of the new non-fiction and the branches borrow freely from the main library and each other, these expedients relieve the situation very slightly and the real remedy lies only in a larger appropria- tion for books.
Work With Children and Schools
Miss Kingman, our children's librarian, reports a slight gain in circulation at the Boys and Girls House and a busy year. The experiment started last year of forming various clubs among the
268
CITY OF QUINCY
children during the summer vacation was continued with some modifications. The dramatic club gave a successful production of Master Skylark on the stage in the basement, which was attended by a full house composed of relatives and friends. A larger amount of the book appropriation was allocated for the purchase of chil- dren's books than in 1933, but we are still far behind in replacing many of the standard books.
Though we have not purchased any books for the school class- room libraries for two years, we have complied with the requests of about one hundred teachers in the elementary grades of the Quincy schools for these libraries. Because of the heavy wear and tear on these books and our dwindling stock, the continuance of this service in the face of the demand for it is a pressing and at present unsolvable problem.
Staff
The resignation of Miss Mabel S. Baxter, after forty-five years of service, at the end of the year 1933 was given special and de- served mention in last year's report. On January 11, a staff party was held in her honor and was attended by all the present staff, many of her former library associates, and by Mr. Truman R. Temple, former librarian, and Mrs. Temple. Miss Baxter was the recipient of gifts of a sun dial and a book case. The occasion, though tempered by the regrets for her retirement, was a happy one.
Mis Mary Mills, who had been Miss Baxter's assistant at the Mabel S. Baxter Branch, has, with the assistance of Miss Char- lotte Stone, carried on the work at that branch. Miss Eleanor Gow and Miss Irene Ponti have been added to the staff during the year, and we lost, through her marriage, Miss Martha Sisson, who had been with us a little over a year.
In times past this library has had a fixed requirement that persons appointed to the staff who had not had previous library training should take, at their own expense, two or more regular courses at some summer library school. Because of the very small salaries at which we have been forced to start new assistants that rule has been waived in recent years. To make up in part, only. in part, however, for this deficiency, the librarian has this year given a course to six of the newer members of the staff on some of the more important phases of library practice, including classi- fication and the use of the catalogue and bibliographical and ref- erence tools.
Two of the usual monthly staff meetings took the form this year of visits to the Somerville and the Newton public libraries, where similarities and differences in system and practice were observed and compared. Meetings of the Massachusetts Library Club and other library groups have been attended by members of the staff, and Miss Callahan, Mrs. Rosvall and the librarian attended at their own expense the American Library Association conference in Mon- treal in June.
Other Items
The bi-monthly "Bulletin," listing the new books added to the library, now issued in mimeographed form, has been published as usual. Its format, for which Miss Callahan has been responsible, has been the subject of favorable comment from other libraries, some writing us to learn how it is made so attractive. When toward the end of the year, Mrs. Wilford's weekly book column
269
REPORT OF TRUSTEES OF PUBLIC LIBRARY
in the local papers was temporarily suspended because of her ill- ness, we had many inquiries regarding its absence and a general commendation on its interest and value to many readers.
During Book Week, Nov. 11-18, through the generosity and in- terest of Mr. Delcevare King, the library was allowed the use of both of the show windows of the Granite Trust Company for book exhibits, one for adult books largely on hobbies, and the other for children's books. They were made so attractive that Mr. King insisted that they be held over for an additional week. An exhibit was also held at the main library during Public Library Week in October, so designated by the proclamation of Governor Ely.
In conclusion, I want to state that I believe that the library has performed a useful and, for the most part, a satisfactory service to the citizens of Quincy during the past year. At least one-third of the population of the city have availed themselves of its facili- ties for recreational and educational reading. We have served business men, professional men and women, workers, students and children, and in many cases this service has had a practical dollars and cents value to the individual. We have a plant now in excel- lent condition, a loyal and intelligent staff, the one thing needful being greater resources of books.
To each member of your board, I express my thanks for your cooperation, your confidence, your interest and your practical as- sistance.
Respectfully submitted,
GALEN W. HILL, Librarian.
Feb. 5, 1935.
