REPORT OF TRUSTEES OF MEMORIAL HALL LIBRARY


The Trustees of Memorial Hall Library take special pleasure in presenting the report of the Librarian for 1931 because of its notable interest. It is the twenty-fifth report of the present Librarian, Miss Edna A. Brown, and calls attention to some of the many changes and improvements in the library during the last quarter century.


It deserves careful reading by every Andover citizen and should awaken pride in the increasing helpfulness of the library, deepen interest in its work and strengthen appreciation of the faithful and skillful work of Miss Brown and her assistants.


The remodelling of the building with its new wing for the use of the children, the freedom of the library shelves to its patrons, the fourfold increase in the circulation of its books, its wise choice of literature suited to the needs of the changing times, and the additional open hours of the library are some of the items which show its important contribution to the welfare of the people and commend it to the unfailing support of our citizens in this time of economical depression.

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE MEMORIAL HALL LIBRARIAN


January 5, 1932.


To the Trustees of the Memorial Hall Library:


GENTLEMEN :


I herewith present the report of the Library for the twelve months ending December 31, 1931.


It is also the twenty-fifth annual report I have written for your Board. Much may happen during twenty-five years, and much has happened in that time to the Memorial Hall Library. Though Mr. Boutwell is the only one of the present Trustees who was upon the Board in 1906, there are others who recall the unattrac- tive place which was Andover's public library. A generation has since grown up which will find it hard to believe that the library then consisted of a single room with a bare, worn floor, contain- ing four long tables surrounded by rickety wooden chairs. The western half of the room was shut off by a partition of wood and ground glass, effectively concealing from sight every book in the place. A single aperture, like that of a bank wicket, broke this barrier, and through this, a would-be reader presented a slip re- questing a book, and in time, received through the same opening the desired book.


Changes began at once. The barrier came down, and people rested their astonished eyes upon the hidden books. Ugly gray paper covers came off, shelves were erected around the room, children's books placed upon them and the children made welcome.


That was the beginning. The number of books circulated for home use in 1906, was 17968. Twenty-five years later, we have, thanks to the Trustees and to the enlightened townspeople, a re- modeled building known far and near as one of the best-planned


151


and most attractive in New England, with an especially charming room for the children. In 1931, we circulated 68512 books, an in- crease through the years of over 50,000 volumes.


And here, the librarian wishes to express her thanks to the present members of the Board and to their predecessors, for the trust they have placed in her, and the interest with which they have furthered all plans. Without their help and advice and the generous support of the town, the Memorial Hall Library could not show its present record. Nor could it have been achieved without Miss Twichell, who has shared every event of that quart- er-century. The library has been fortunate in interested and loyal helpers, but her place in its development, its work, and in the affection of the public, is unique.


Our most important plan for 1931 was to open the adult library daily from nine to nine, not closing at noon as had been the custom since 1872. To do this required the employment of another full- time assistant. The town generously granted us the necessary increase in appropriation, but the opening was delayed by the sud- den death of Miss Edith Donald, who had been with us for fifteen years. She was a most valuable assistant and is still much missed. Her death, followed by the serious illness of another member of the staff, made it impossible for us to put the plan into operation immediately after the March town meeting. Realizing our diffi- culties, people were most patient over the unavoidable delay ; indeed, we encountered but one unreasonable person. On May 1st the new hours went into effect, and at once proved one of the most popular things the library has ever done. Records kept of attendance during this noon period show a steady increase in use. In May, 396 people came; in October, 678; in November, 824, and during one day in November, 57 people came at the time the building was formerly closed. It would be a real disaster if lack of funds should compel us to return to the old schedule of open- ing.


An analysis of the year's circulation shows 60962 books issued at the Memorial Hall, of which 15839 were borrowed from the junior room. At Ballardvale, 7550 were taken for home use.


152


The use of the library was larger than in 1930 by 5363 books, and larger than in 1929 by 7634 books. A total use of 68512 volumes means that we have issued books at the rate of over 6.8 per capita of the population. The borrowers' cards actually in use represent 48 percent of the townspeople. Our use for 1931 is, of course, the largest in our history. This increased use means greater wear and depreciation of our books and greater need of rebinding.


The junior room has about regained the popularity it lost when our former children's librarian, Miss Wade, left us. It is now a happy and a very busy place. Story-telling, and the meeting of three clubs, one of them an extremely popular stamp club, charac- terize Saturday mornings. The young people feel a sense of ownership in this room so intense that it is sometimes amusing. They take great pride and interest in decorating it for special occasions, and staged under Miss Robinson's direction, an exhibit for Book Week which did them great credit. Miss Robinson has visited the different schools and spoken to teachers and chil- dren. Books have been sent to the more distant schools and many teachers are taking them for class use. The records for the junior room are now most satisfactory and its prospects promising.


The Andover Garden Club has presented to the library several unusually beautiful and expensive books upon flowers and garden- ing, in memory of Mrs. Amy Trow. These books are marked with a book plate designed by Miss Priscilla Page, and given by Philip Cole. They are for the use of all garden lovers and are appreciated.


Unlike the work of most business organizations, that of a public library increases suddenly and greatly in times of depression. During 1930 we began to feel this increase, and it has doubled during the year just past. Never before have we had so many people visit the reading-room, nor have we ever had such a de- mand for books upon current history, economics and social prob- lems. This is not peculiar to Andover ; from libraries all over the country comes the same story of increased use. Indeed, in many places, the demand upon the public libraries is exceeded only by that upon local agencies of relief.


153


During the war, libraries and books were an acknowledged factor in maintaining public morale; in another emergency they are making their influence felt. It must mean something to an unemployed father in Andover to know that in the town library his children may find enjoyment without personal expense. The older men who spend hours in the sunny reading-room perhaps leave with a little more hope for the future. Some have been studying to fit themselves for opportunity when it shall come ; others have forgotten for an hour their anxious problems.


Through its books, the Memorial Hall Library is sending cheer and a change of thought into homes in every part of Andover. It is furnishing recreation and enjoyment to those who can no longer afford to pay for entertainment. By promoting the study of history and economics, it is helping to bring about a clearer understanding of the vital public questions engaging the attention of all thoughtful people.


The present is no time to develop plans involving expense. We feel, however, that the extremely large use of the library during the past year, and the real refuge it has been to the unhappy and the unoccupied, justify us in asking that we be permitted funds sufficient to continue our twelve hour daily opening.


Respectfully submitted,


EDNA A. BROWN Librarian

HOW TO USE THE LIBRARY


The Memorial Hall Library is open every day except Sundays and holidays, from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. The junior room is open from 3 to 8 p.m. from Monday to Friday. On Saturday it is open from 9 to 12.30, and 3 to 6 p.m. During July and August it is open from 3 to 6 p.m.


Any resident of Andover may have a library card upon filling out an application blank. Any child who can write his name may have a card, but children in grades below the Punchard School are required to have their applications endorsed by both parent and teacher.


Children may borrow one book at a time. All grown people are allowed to take any reasonable number of books, provided that only one is a current magazine, and only one is a seven-day book.


Books are issued for fourteen days, the date upon which the book is due being stamped plainly on the "date due" slip at the time of issue. A book kept overtime incurs a fine of two cents for every day overdue (Sundays and holidays included). A few of these books most in demand are issued for seven days only. All these are labeled upon the book pocket, "Seven-day book". Books lost or damaged must be paid for.


Seven-day books are not renewed nor reserved for anyone, nor may they be transferred from one card to another. They must be definitely returned to the library by each borrower. Other books may be renewed if no one else has asked for them, and if a work not fiction is especially desired for any serious purpose, notice of its return to the library will be sent on request.


The shelves of the library are open to all grown people. The books are arranged according to subjects, and it is often much more satisfactory to go to the shelves and examine the books than to depend upon the catalogue.


The new books are listed at intervals in the weekly paper, and


156


cumulated in the yearly library report, but the only complete record is the card catalogue. This catalogue is arranged alpha- betically like a dictionary.


The new books purchased each month are placed for some weeks in a special case, so that the most recent additions to the library may be found there. The library buys only a limited 4 amount of new fiction but it tries to fill the wants of the com- munity in regard to other books desired. People are invited to suggest for purchase the titles of books they wish.


The library staff is always glad to answer questions or in any way to help visitors find what they want.
