PUBLIC LIBRARY REPORT


LIBRARIAN'S REPORT


The Flint Public Library is now open two days a week instead of three days as in the past.


Tuesday 2:00 to 9:00


Friday 2:00 to 9:00


This change was made so that it would be possible for both high school and grade school pupils to use the library at the close of school. In order to add only three hours to the schedule, it was necessary to close on Saturday, when few people used the library.


Sometime ago it was decided to limit the number of new books loaned to each person to one fiction and one non-fiction, so that all adults using the library would have an equal opportunity to read the new books. There seems to be some misunderstanding in regard to the need for this. The budget of a small library is not large and has to be used for books suitable for five reading ages; grades 1-3, 4-6, 7-9, high school, and adults. A few of the many interests that must be considered within these groups are: biography, history, literature, science, novels, mysteries, westerns, light romance, and historical novels. It should be clear that not too many books for any one group of readers can be purchased each month.


Exhibits of hobby collections, well labeled and arranged by young people, have been shown in the balcony, where at the same time books relating to the exhibits have been placed. Some work has been started with the school. The first exhibit was shown during Children's Book Week in October, when new children's books were on view in the Children's Room. At this time six classes came from the school to visit the balcony and get acquainted with the library. The junior high school classes have been shown how to use the catalog and the reference tools. In November the first three grades, one class each week, started to come to the library for a story hour. The loan of books to classrooms was resumed.
