At the next session OF the Legislature
a move will be made to reduce the sum
necessary 10 secure travelling library
from 50 to 81 Experience has
shown that the cost OF transporting "A
travelling library from the State House
To- its destination and then returning
averages about $3.50 1t is believed
that the reduction Of the price will
tempt Very many who heretofore have
not awaited themselves or the oppor-
use this means Of securing some of the
best literature to be had.
1t has been shown in many places
where charge formerly made for the
use Of books in the libraries in cities
and towns was abolished. the use of the
library is greatly increased. Taken in
Augusta, for instance. When the nom :
inal fee of 81 a year was charged for
the use OF the library the number Of
people using the books vas compare
lively small. Now that the restriction
has been removed. nearly four times as
many use the books.
1t is believed that if the cash restric-
tion is done away with in travelling Il
braries so that only the transportation
charges are required, the libraries will
be much more generally circulated and
a much greater call made.
1t is not probable that in anticipa-
ton of the increase of business an in
crease Of appropriation will be asked,
but il is thought that the same appro
pria ton will be asked again at the
coming session Of the Legislature
There are now about 40 Of the travell-
ing libraries in use. 1t Is believed that
if the number is increased 10 100.
enough will be on hand To meet the de-
mands of the patrons. even with the
anticipated double or triple increase.
No change will be made in the Ii
braries for il has been found that the
collection as at present made up are of
the right character to suit the people
using them. 1t is possible that some
change will be made in some of the Ii
brarieS sent to schools, for they re-
ouirc a collection different from that
used by the public in general. since
their is for a special use. and is needed
ject,
The good that the Libraries have done
cannot be estimated. Their general
use is shown by the fact that in nearly
all cases those who have once used the
libraries call for a second library and
in more than one case calls have been
mode, for a third library, SO that it may
be seen how general is the use, and
how much they are appreciated.
