Many patrons use reference books, periodicals, and other items from the collection in the building. LIBGIS statistics represents when a staff member assists a patron, either in finding a specific answer, an item requested, or a location. The com- bination of these two pieces of data does not cover use of materials within the building when a patron locates tbem~ without staff assistance. Because of such a wide range of use factors~ approximate figures only are available for many aspects of library services and their use by patrons. The children's department is busily preparing for the winter session of pre-school programm Jo put on three special ~eld trips for pre-school groups during the week of January 27, as well as providing regular library services to the scheduled classes from Immaculate Concep- tion School. Thanks go to all the Friends of the Library for the donut holes they provided for the January senior citizen program. Thanks also go to Connie Carlson, Delight Olson, Aileen Sturdevant, and Lee Wilkie for helping to serve. Thanks also go to the V.F.W. Auxiliary of Post 230 for the playpen which they bought for use in the children's department by parents with babies. Now the parents can browse and select materials with both arms free.
