In April, Dr. Maurice Huckins, Jr., the School Physician, assist- ed by Dr. Eleanor H. Smith, the Medical Director of the Nashoba Asso- ciated Boards of Health, conducted a Pre-School Roundup for the chil- dren who were to enter the 1st grade in September. This gave the par- ents an opportunity to have the children examined and also to be vac- cinated and receive Diptheria and Tetanus Boosters, if needed, before school opened.
A Tuberculin Testing Program was conducted by Dr. Smith, in Oct- ober, for all 1st grade children and any others who had moved to West- ford this year.

REPORT OF TRUSTEES OF THE J. V. FLETCHER LIBRARY
The Trustees of the J. V. Fletcher Library herewith submit their annual report for 1959, including the report of the Librarian.
In the spring Miss May E. Day and Miss Alice M. Howard went to Ipswich on May 25th for the meeting of the Merrimack Valley Library Association where they had an interesting meeting with fellow Librar- ians and this fall they visited the Chelmsford Library on November 5th and here they had the pleasure of hearing Mrs. George R. Wallace again.
We wish to thank an unknown giver of a Magnavox Stereo Music Rec- ord Player to the Library.
Mr. Walter B. Tyrrell, Civil Engineer, set the stone bounds for the Library grounds this year.
A glass case was purchased to hold more of the relics upstairs and two metal cases to hold Library supplies.
The Library celebrated its 100th Anniversary by having Open House on September 22nd. It was a pleasure to notice the number of children who came in and wrote their names in the visitor's book.
To carry on repairs and the necessary work of the Library, the Trustees ask for the following appropriation:
1. The sum of Six Thousand Two Hundred ($6,200.00) Dollars
2. The receipts from the Dog Licenses in 1959
3. The receipts from the Library Fines in 1959 - $330.67

REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN
The Librarian herewith submits her 42nd Annual Report of the work of the Library.
This has been an unusually busy year since the pupils of Westford Academy have had term papers to write requiring many references. It has been necessary to have two people in attendance at all times. As several pupils need the same material at once and must have several references apiece it is not possible to supply all without the return and exchange of books. The circulation figures alone do not show all the story as many have used the references while working in the Library
The most popular books of non-fiction are still Biography 1,131; followed by History 971; Useful Arts (medicine, aviation, agriculture, cooking) 871; Sociology (economics, government, education, costume) 825; and Science 728.
Besides the obvious work of charging books to borrowers and check- ing them in on return and shelving them, there are many other things that must be done, a few of which are as follows: 1. Books are still sent to the Schools in the Villages for recreational reading and for help with their studies. The books are usually chosen by the Librarian and slips must be put in the books on which the circulation record may be recorded. When the books are returned the cards must be returned to the books and the circulation record counted. This all takes time. Pictures are also supplied on various subjects for display on the bul- letin board.
2. Another chore that takes much time is notifying borrowers of their overdue books. This is done by postal card notices or by tele- phoning or both when more than one notice must be given. Several hun- dred notices are sent in a year. If a borrower would return or renew the books promptly it would be a great help. Books should be returned as soon as possible after finishing because very often other people are waiting to read them.
3. Books are also delivered to a few at the Countryside Home in Westford Center once a week by Stephen Burne. The Librarian supplies books twice a week to about nine people at the Nursing Home in Gran- iteville.
Miss Gleason, teacher of reading in the 6th grade, brought each of her five divisions to the Library this fall for a get-acquainted visit. Many children borrowed books.
The citizens of Westford have been benefitted greatly by the Li- brary Service Act passed by Congress in 1957, as it is from this source that the Bookmobile, which makes monthly trips to the Town, is financed. Many books have been borrowed from them - some for recrea- tional reading which the Library could not afford to buy or were of too limited demand; others were of valuable aid in supplementing the need for books on Science, History etc. Everyone is invited to visit the Bookmobile and make their own choice or the Librarian will try to
131
get desired titles on request.
In-service training for workers in small Libraries has also been sponsored by this Act. Two Courses have been given at North Reading, headquarters of the Bookmobile, the one in the spring on "Techniques of Public Library Service in Small Communities" and in the fall on "Cataloging and Classifying Books" both of which were taken by Mrs. W. Otis Day.
Beside the books from the Bookmobile we still make use of the Division of Library Extension of the Department of Education in Boston for books on education and other non-fiction subjects including those on foreign languages. They do not supply fiction. While only Russian books have been requested this past year, we have had other languages and can get others on request.
As it is not possible to supply mystery readers with all the ti- tles they desire by purchase we are now exchanging mysteries with the Library at Carlisle. They need more than they can afford to buy and so do we and as we have different titles it is possible to exchange books for a few months at a time.
The Division of Library Extension has sent out a list of basic reference books for small Libraries which would be adequate for answer- ing the majority of questions asked by the general public and selected for the purpose of providing as broad a subject coverage as possible at least expense. Our Library has about one-half of the specific ti- tles given and has comparable material in most of the other fields suggested. A few titles will be added.
This year marked the 100th Anniversary of a free Public Library in Westford when the Town accepted the gift of about 1300 Books from the Proprietors of the Social Library in March 1859. The occasion was celebrated by Open House held on September 22nd. One hundred eighty names were signed in the guest book that day. In the evening a pro- gram was enjoyed - a welcome by the Trustees, a history of the Library by the Librarian and an interesting talk on Libraries given by Mrs. George R. Wallace, Trustee of the Fitchburg Library. Refreshments were served during the day in charge of Mrs. McGrath. Previous to that date the Library had been thoroughly cleaned, including the re- arrangement of the exhibits upstairs by Mrs. W. Otis Day and Mrs. Thomas McGrath. New cards were typed by Mrs. Day. A brief history of the Library, mimeographed by Mrs. Virgil E. Murdock, was given to all visitors. Copies may still be obtained.
In the Frost Museum Case was an exhibit of articles to illustrate events which happened in 1859.
The average cost per capita of the Library this year of about $1.25 does not meet the minimum standard for service as recommended by the American Library Association which is $1.50 and for superior ser- vice $3.00 per capita is necessary.
The D.A.R. met at the Library in February and October. The His- torical Society used the hall four times. A few Committee meetings
132
were also held at the Library.
Nineteen members of the Brownie Troop from Nabnasset came to the Library on March 11th with their Leaders to get acquainted and borrow books.
In December an anonymous donor made a welcome gift to the Library of a Magnavox Stereo Music Record Player. The borrowers were enter- tained by carols during Christmas week. The Library collection of rec- ords is constantly increasing and being borrowed by more people.
A bust of a child's head was given by Miss Mary G. Balch when she moved from Town.
The Librarian attended the meetings of the Massachusetts Library Association in Boston in February and three days of the fall meeting at Swampscott and the two meetings of the Merrimack Valley Library As- sociation with benefit and enjoyment. She also visited quite a few Libraries.
The list of magazines follows. Nature and Natural History have combined. Science News Letter has been added. All except current numbers may be borrowed for one week.

REPORT OF TRUSTEES OF EMILY F. FLETCHER FUND
On April 10th Hal H. Harrison presented a wonderful program in the Academy Auditorium, entitled "Beyond the Shining Mountains".
For six months during the past two years Mr. Harrison travelled thirty thousand miles through twelve Western States to complete an historically accurate picture and shows it much as it was one hundred fifty years ago at the time of the Lewis and Clark Expedition. Mr. Harrison's full length pictures were a delight to see and were much appreciated.
This was another of our programs held on a very rainy night. Still the audience seemed to be happy with it.

On October 7th in the Academy Auditorium, Donald B. MacMillan lectured on "The Far North". "He was one of the foremost explorers, a grand story teller, one of the most fascinating personalities". Lowell Thomas says he'd go miles to hear MacMillan. Our audience was very good even though the rain poured all the time.
It was very satisfactory and we have had requests for Mr. MacMil- lan to come again soon.
