REPORT OF TRUSTEES OF PUBLIC LIBRARY


REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN


To the Trustees of the Thomas Crane Public Library :


Books are the stock in trade of a public library. Without books there is no need of library buildings, shelves, reading room facilities or a staff of employees. Because our greatest problem in 1935 has been the difficulty of meeting the demands for books due to the re- duced book appropriations of the last three years, I want to begin this report by presenting some pertinent facts bearing upon this problem.


In 1932 the budget for books and periodicals was $18,900. In 1933 this was reduced to $11,000; remained at that figure for 1934, and in 1935 was further reduced to $10,000. Out of the book appropriation, the Thomas Crane Public Library has to supply new books and make replacements for a main library, a children's department, twelve branches, a hospital library and supplementary book service to the elementary schools which have no libraries of their own. In these three years only 4700 more books have been added than have been dis- carded, or less than 1600 a year to meet the needs and calls of all the above mentioned agencies. In the children's department where the wear and tear is heavy, more books have been discarded than were purchased in each of these years. In 1922 when the library had only six branches and a circulation of 377,000 volumes more books were purchased than in 1933 or 1935 when we had twelve branches and a circulation of 901.000 and 765,000. The library staff have been the recipients of many adverse comments on the appearance of the shelves, particularly at the branches, because there are so many worn, di- lapidated and out-of-date books. No storekeeper expects to do a satisfactory business with stock that is shopworn, shabby and out- moded; no more can the public library.


The relation of losses in circulation of books to decrease in book budgets was clearly brought out at an informal meeting of a group of librarians held in January of the current year, where the discussion turned to comparative records of book loans for 1935. The librarians of those libraries which have had slight or no decreases in book ap- propriations all reported small gains in circulation, while those li- braries which have had cuts reported decided losses. Your librarian. unhappily, was obliged to associate himself with the latter group. In 1933 before the effect of the reduced appropriation was felt. the circu- lation of the Thomas Crane Public Library was 901,873; in 1934, the number of books loaned dropped to 847,399, a loss of over 50,000. In 1935 another and greater decrease appeared, over 80,000, to a total of 765,727 books loaned, a loss of 136,000 in circulation in three years.


The problem is a serious one. Your library administration watches the use of the Thomas Crane Public Library retrograde instead of advance, yet feels unequal to performing the miracle of making bricks without straw.


Efficient operation of all the agencies and services built up by the library I believel to be impossible with the book budgets of the last three years. Unless there be a curtailment in agencies and services the only alternative is a gradual increase each year in the budget for books until an adequate amount is reached.


Against the rather dark background that has just been painted, there are some brighter tints to be sketched in. Our per capita circu- lation, though it has dropped, is still above that of most public li- braries. The percenage of loss in non-fiction was less than for fiction. Though the number of borrowers registered decreased from 25,951 at the end of 1934 to 24,630 on Dec 31, 1935, the figure repre- sents one-third of the population of Quincy. There has been an in-


346


CITY OF QUINCY


creased use of technical books in the so-called X room and the usual amount of reference work. Several new improvements in the service have been effected. Mention should be made of the fact that though the main library and all the other branches suffered losses in loans of books, the exceptions were the Merrymount Branch and the Hos- pital Library which showed slight gains. Early in the year at the suggestion of Judge Kenneth D. Johnson of the Quincy District Court, a list of up-to-date, lively and readable books for boys was prepared by Miss Kingman, our children's librarian. This list met with the enthusiastic approval of Judge Johnson who had it printed in the form of a booklet for distribution to the juveniles who appear in his court.


There have been several changes in the staff during the year. Through their marriage we lost two of our most valued assistants, Miss Marion L. Davis, for six years librarian of the Norfolk Downs Branch, and .Miss Muriel L. Cox, librarian of the Montclair Branch. Both Miss Davis and Miss Cox were enthusiastic librarians, hard- workers, and energetic in building up their collections of books and serving the readers in their communities. But the loss which affected us the most came through the tragic death as the result of an auto- mobile accident of Miss Laura Duncanson, librarian of the Atlantic Branch since 1929. Quiet, unostentatious, always finding work to be done and doing it faithfully and conscientiously, Miss Duncanson gave an efficient and always friendly service to the people of Atlantic and to the Thomas Crane Public Library. Her death came as a great shock to her associates, for, to quote from the tribute sent by the staff to the members of her family: "Her unchanging, sunny dispo- sition, willing and cooperative attitude were a source of delight to all who knew her." The vacancies at the branches were filled by transfers from other branches and by the appointment of Miss Ragn- hild Lindberg, Miss Betty Keniley and Miss Barbara Hill, all of whom had previously served as substitutes and part time workers. A change in the handling of the work of putting away books and reading shelves was effected during the year. Formerly this work was done by high school girls after the school hours. Increased efficiency has been secured by using two full time assistants, Miss Edna Amet and Miss Elizabeth Keating, who in addition to taking care of such work, fill in on desk schedules and in the work room.


In connection with the staff I should not fail to speak of the ex- ceptionally good work done by Miss Ponti and Miss Giles in the pre- paration of posters, by Miss Hebert in cataloging the picture collec- tion and in making a much needed analytical index of the collections of instrumental music, and by Miss Henrikson who has been engaged in carrying out her own original idea of making a file of clippings of material relating to authors and to careers, valuable source materi- al for reference use. All the other members of the staff can be com- mended for equally intelligent and efficient service in their respective assignments.


This annual report is my tenth as your librarian. In these ten years I have seen this library expand in size and extend in use. There is now no section of Quincy over a mile from some one of the agencies of the library, and through our automobile exchange system, all the branches are in almost daily touch with the main library and with each other. the resources of one being available to all the others. During these ten years the Thomas Crane Public Library has sup- plied the answers to thousands of questions asked by seekers of in- formation. It has provided hundreds of students with collateral and supplementary reading. Other hundreds,-professional people, busi- ness men, skilled and unskilled workers, housewives, all classes,-have


347


REPORT OF TRUSTEES OF PUBLIC LIBRARY


found in the library practical books written by experts which have been of help and inspiration in their lines of work. More thousands have drawn from the shelves of this library books which have pro- vided mental stimulation or pleasant relaxation, books which have been a resource in these depression years. And last, but by no means least, countless children have been furnished with and encouraged to read the best of literature written for the youth of today. Over the desks of the Thomas Crane Public Library and its branches in these ten years, 6,964,731 books and magazines have been loaned to indi- vidual persons for home reading, books enough if laid end to end to make a path 2000 miles in length or to pave a fifty foot street for 20 miles.


During this decade there have been many changes in the personnel of the staff, for which matrimony has been chiefly responsible. To all who have worked with me I owe a debt of gratitude for their loyalty and efficient service. To them really belongs the credit for whatever has been accomplished. To Miss Callahan I am particularly in- debted. She was extremely helpful in my first months of adjustment and all the way along by her executive ability and cooperative spirit she has lightened the burdens of administration and made the road much easier to travel. And on this anniversary I cannot forbear to express my appreciation for the splendid support and friendly per- sonal interest shown by you and by all the trustees of this library un- der whom I have served.


Respectfully submitted,


February 11, 1936.


GALEN W. HILL, Librarian.
