HomeMy WebLinkAboutJanuary 14, 1964COLUMBIA HEIG}~S PUBLIC LiBRgRY January 14, 1964 The circulation for November was nearly an ~11 time high for school months, 7,491. But then came the assassination and Christmas and we dropped to 5200 which was still 1400 more than l~st December. This mont~ is already exceeding all e~pec- rations and should be ~bout 7000. We have already ordered, received, and catalogued many non- fiction books that should be helpful to the students with their projects. We have also tried to supplement the adult collection, especially, the fiction. There seems to be a limited number of good adult books right now. The adult readers have been particularly loyal and Monday is our busiest night. We h~ve q~:ite a few out of city patrons and we might give some consideration toward char~tng for non-resident c~rds. The figures gathered fo* the yearly report are interesting and will be reviewed. The card catalogue has been separated into Juvenile and Adult. The arrangement may be somewhat inconvenient but would othe r~ise be too tall for the younger re~ders. A new source has been found for used mystery books at 75% discount. This should please our chronic mystery readers. The figures for the budget are eagerly awaited so that we can pl, n our attack for 1964. H. Deeble, Librarian.
