REPORT OF TRUSTEES OF PUBLIC LIBRARY.
During the past year the library has shown a steady gain in use- fulness and adaptability to the requirements of the community. The reclassification, increasing as it has the accessibility of the library, has shown the wisdom of the undertaking, and thanks are due to the public spirited citizens and friends who made it possible. What for many years had been matters of guess work have been reduced to certainties. Statistical information including circulation and classes of reading is now based on facts, not conjecture. Books that are in the library can now be found without annoying delays.
The annual inspection was accomplished this year with more satisfactory results. A few books are missing which we trust will
be returned or replaced soon. The library as a whole is in good condition considering the length of time that some of the books have been in service. We find that there has been considerable wear and tear which has necessitated the withdrawal of quite a number of books for rebinding. Many of what are termed standard works and classics are sadly in need of replacing with later editions, which are published in more attrative form and with type that is less tiresome to the eye; among these are such as Cooper, Scott, Dickens, Hawthorne and others, some of which have been in use since the institution of the library, The juveniles also need a thorough going over. The books put into the hands of the young should be in the best condition of any in the library for the moral and educational effect if nothing more.
The increased circulation, from 5487 last year to 6797 this year, is pleasing and would have been greater but for the withdrawal of books from circulation in Cochituate from December 13 to January 24, during the prevalence of smallpox.
38
The statistical tables as compared with last year show many other gratifying changes especially in the more profitable classes of reading. We have adopted the method of purchasing books monthly and it seems to meet with favor.
It is impossible to meet the demand for current fiction with our limited means and we do not think it advisable to invest as large an amount as formerly, in this class of books, many of which prove to be worthless after a few months circulation and are then left to take up valuable room. Among the great number of books of fiction now being published very few are of lasting worth.
It was with regret that we accepted the resignation of Mrs. Small which was tendered in December and took effect January first. Her term as librarian was marked for its efficiency and faith- fulness, her ready adaptability to the details and needs of the library and the progressive spirit with which she entered into the work increased the usefulness and convenience of the library.
We succeeded in getting as her successor Miss Margaret E. Wheeler, who is a graduate of Bates College and is well equipped for the position. She is proving most satisfactory.
The friends of the library have not been unmindful of our wants. Early in the year we received from Mrs. William F. Matchett a gift of "Three hundred dollars for the purchase of books of biography, travel and reference principally " and by consulting the list of accessions it will be seen that we were enabled to procure many ex- cellent and much needed works. Gifts of this nature are of lasting worth.
Later we received a typewriter, an acquisition that we could hardly do without. All the cards are now being typewritten, thus rendering them more legible and uniform.
Numerous other donations have been received including mag- azines from Mr. Wallace S. Draper, books from the late Dr. C. H. Boodey, the Misses Loring, Mrs. Charles A. Cutting, Mr. Francis Shaw, Hon. C. Q. Tirrell, Mr. John Q. Adams and unknown donors whose thoughtful interest should be fully appreciated by the citizens.
Through the kindness of Messrs. Francis B. and Horace Sears
39
the portrait of Judge Mellen has been framed in harmony with the library furnishings. And we are informed that we are soon to re- ceive from the same source an appropriate frame for the protrait of their father, Rev. E H. Sears, who was closely identified with the early days of the library. We hope that these gifts may lead to others of a similar nature, as those who were identified with the library in former days are deserving places of honor in the present building, but of course [should be in keeping with the surroundings.
Realizing that the method of lighting the library was deficient in many respects, and from the standpoint of safety not what it should be, the trustees asked the town at a special town meeting for an appropriation for electric lighting which was readily granted and the system is now in operation.
We also asked the town to take some action in recognition of the gift of the Library Building by the late Warren G. Roby and it met with hearty response in the form of an appropriation for a bronze tablet which has been placed in the library and the inscription is,
WAYLAND FREE PUBLIC LIBRARY FOUNDED - 1848
THIS BUILDING THE GIFT OF WARREN GOULD ROBY 1900
The opening of the library on Wednesday evenings is most satis- factory and there is a general demand for more open hours which the Trustees will gladly grant when sufficient funds are at their dis- posal to cover the extra expense.
Mrs. Sarah E. Heard, who faithfully served as Librarian from 1885 to 1901, has passed away during this year.
A matter that should have early attention is the establishment of a reading room and branch library at Cochituate.
40
We recommend an appropriation of eight hundred dollars for the next year. With this amount the library can be kept in operation but no department is more worthy of an increased appropriation and none could use it to better advantage.
Appended is the Librarian's report including a catalogue of last years accessions.
Respectfully submitted,
JOHN CONNELLY, Chairman, FRANCIS SHAW, ARTHUR G. BENNETT, A. CLIFFORD BRYANT, C. B. WILLIAMS.
NOTE. Owing to his absence abroad, the signature of Mr. Alfred W. Cutting, Clerk of the Board of Trustees, does not appear.

The state and government reports still remain unclassified, but it is hoped that circumstances will permit of its being done in the near future.
The addition of a typewriter has facilitated the work of the Librarian to a great extent.
On account of smallpox the residents of Cochituate were not allowed to take books from the Library from December 13, 1902, to January 24, 1903. This has reduced the amount of circulation through the Cochituate office.
In closing, the Librarian is pleased to say that the past year has proved the new system to be a success.

Librarian.
