Collections of books have been deposited with 8 schools, in- cluding 1 Sunday school, with a circulation of 9754 volumes ; and 36 teachers have taken 544 books for school work.
On the Student's cards, 79 card holders have borrowed 900 books.
The registration of borrowers, since the beginning of the present registration, in April, 1909, records a total of 4387 applications, 314 of which have been made this year.
The annual examination of the books, for which the library was formerly closed on New Year's day, has been made dur- ing the regular working hours since January 1 became a le- gal holiday. This year the examination shows that 24 books have been lost, of which 4 were replaced and 4 paid for, by the borrowers; and 11 books previously reported lost have been found.
Because 66 books were unfit for circulation, they have been discarded.
The total number of accessions is 34768, of which 508 were added this year, including 34 replacements, 43 gifts, and 61 bound periodicals. 255 books have been rebound.
The books purchased from the Susannah Hunt Stetson fund, the Augustus J. Richards fund, and the Tirrell Dona- tion are listed in Appendix B.
The additions to the Reading and Reference room have been as follows : American year book, 1916; Catholic ency- clopedia, index, 1914; Hill's manual of business and social in- formation, 1915 ; Massachusetts-Manual of the General Court, 1917 ; General acts, 1916 ; Special acts and resolves, 1916 ; and Vital records of Chelsea, Granville, Greenfield, Gloucester, Salem (v. 1.), and Uxbridge; National cyclopaedia of Ameri- can biography, v. 15, 1916; New international year book, 1916; Statesman's year book, 1917; Whitaker's almanack, 1917; Who's who, 1917; World almanac and encyclopedia, 1917.
The list of periodicals contained in Appendix C varies from that of last year as indicated below: Something-to-do has been discontinued. Countryside is incorporated with the
225
Independent, and the Craftsman is combined with the Art world. Arts and decoration, Our four-footed friends, and Raja Yoga messenger are no longer presented to the library. Cassell's Little folks is now Little folks.
The Congregationalist is now the Congregationalist and Ad- vance. The Engineering news and Engineering record are consolidated under the name of Engineering news-record.
The following periodicals have been added to the list for the coming year: American cookery, Canada weekly (gift), Industrial arts magazine, Journal of home economics, Manual training magazine, Missionary review of the world, New re- public, Norfolk county agricultural and home making bulle- tin, and Red cross bulletin.
The collections of pictures, from the Library Art club, which were exhibited in the Reading room, illustrated the fol- lowing subjects: The Panama Canal; Belgium, No. 1, West- ern Belgium, or, Provinces of East and West Flanders; The Great War in Europe, No. 5; German color prints; Swedish life and costumes; The History of England in twelve pic- tures; Rhodesia; Augustus Saint-Gaudens, Sculptor; The Great War in Europe, No. 3; Markets of the world; Moscow and Nizhni-Novgorod; The Great War in Europe, No. 6; Marchen-Brunnen, or, Fairy-tale fountain in Berlin; Bibli- cal scenes, personages, and saints; Pictures in Buckingham palace and Windsor castle, Pt. VI, Italian and Spanish.
Among the gifts of the year, the library has received an- nual reports, bulletins and other publications from 38 li raries ; books, pamphlets and periodicals from individual do- nors, and societies; and many publications from the State and Federal governments.
Mrs. Mary Fifield King has shown her continued interest in the Fifield Collection by contributing numerous books, papers, and other articles of historic interest, including sev- eral numbers of the Liberty Bell.
This annual, devoted to the interests of abolition, was edit- ed by Mrs. Maria Weston Chapman, a daughter of Weymouth, noted for her active participation in the cause of anti-slavery.
Portraits and busts of Mrs. Chapman and her husband, Henry G. Chapman, have been presented to the library by
226
Mrs. Warren Weston and her daughter, Mrs. Meigs.
The Trustees take this opportunity to express their thanks to the donors, whose names may be found in Appendix D.
In last year's report acknowledgment was made of the generous gift of Joseph E. Trask under whose will the town received, in 1916, six thousand dollars, under a partial dis- tribution of his estate. This year, by a farther distribution, the sum of fifty-six hundred dollars has been received.
The home circulation, as well as the use of the Reading and reference room, has been somewhat affected by the war, which has ,to a large extent, absorbed the interest and the time of our townspeople.
Under the management of the Board of Trustees, constitut- ing the Local Library War Council, a tag day canvass of the town was made on September 22, in the interest of the Million Dollar Campaign, of the Library War Service committee of the American Library Association, to provide libraries and books for the soldiers and sailors. Through this tag day can- vass, $600 was realized, and the town's quota, amounting to $700, based on 5 per cent of the population, was more than made up by club and individual donations, with the result that the sum of $705 was forwarded to the Division Director on November 22, as Weymouth's contribution to the War Li- brary fund.
The library was closed on two days in November because there was no heat in the building. The heater could not be used on November 1, when the cellar was flooded with water, nor on November 26, because several sections of the boiler had given out.
The cost of pumping the water from the cellar amounted to more than thirty dollars; while the repairs to the boiler called for an expenditure of about four hundred dollars.
Once a week, for ten weeks, in the early part of the year, a parliamentary class, formed under the auspices of the Mon- day Club, met in the Reading room, during the morning hours, for instruction in parliamentary practice.
During the last two weeks of December, the Trustees' room was used by the Legal Advisory Board, who met to give ad- vice to registrants of Ward 3 concerning the filling out of
227
Questionnaires.
The Trustees announce with great pleasure that Class List, No. 6, which was mentioned in last year's report, has been completed. For several months the preparation of the Class List has taken all of the time which could be spared from the regular work.
This Class List, No. 6, contains a list of the books which have been added to the library from August 1, 1910, to the date of publication, October 1, 1917. With the Lists already published, it will give, to the residents of Weymouth, a com- plete classed list of the books in the library from 1879 to Oc- tober 1, 1917. These printed catalogues should be especially welcome to the borrowers who cannot come regularly to the library to consult the card catalogue.
The Class Lists are on sale at the library and at the De- livery Stations.
For several years the appropriation for the maintenance of the library has been insufficient. This year the service has been crippled for want of funds, as evidenced in the limited number of books added during the year. The increased cost of heating and of library supplies, together with the neces- sary repairs, have taken so large a proportion of the income that the trustees feel obliged to ask for a larger appropriation for the coming year.
To do honor to the memory of Miss Caroline A. Blanchard, who died on June 20, the library was closed during the fu - neral services, on June 23. Miss Blanchard was librarian of the Tufts Library from its beginning in 1879, until her health failed in 1906. As first librarian, she brought to the work a love of books and the trained mind of a successful teacher, which made her of inestimable value in establishing the library. To her efficient and disinterested service, for more than twenty-five years, is due, in a large measure, the success of the institution. The influence of her kindly help- fulness and her genial personality continues as an inspiring memory in the hearts of the people whom she so ably served.
The library has also sustained a loss, this year, in the res- ignation of Miss Louisa C. Richards, who was associated as assistant with Miss Blanchard, and who for thirty-six years
.
228
has rendered faithful and valuable services to the library. Her presence at the desk will be missed by the people who have learned to appreciate her sterling qualities.
