The great mass of cheap editions of works of fiction by pop- ular authors, at such low prices as to allow their purchase by almost any one, is considered as one of the reasons for the appar-
41
ent decline in the demand for books from the shelves of the library.
The subscribers to this report are unanimous in the opinion that we are highly favored in retaining the services of our efficient librarian, when we consider the appearance which the library room invariably assumes under her supervision; the excellent order in which we find the books of the library ; the efforts which she manifests that they shall be used with care and neatness, and not abused or injured by the patrons. We consider her labors for the best interests of the library are worthy our high commend- ation.
