LIBRARY REPORT
in PRINTED FORM
Shows in Careful Detail Work
Of Institution During
Year

The annual report Of the Board Of
Managers and Librarian of the Whining
ton Institute Free Library has just been
issued and an examination of the report
shows in careful detail the work that the
library has done during the year ended
February 10Th. Not only was the home
circulation OF books during that time the
largest in the history Of the library, but
it also showed the largest increase Of
any year since the library was made free.
The total circulation was 252S97 volumes
making an increase Of 2z457 over the cir
culation of tho year before
The librarian very justly states that
the measure of success Of a library can
not be wholly determined by the number
Of books that it circulates. A library Cir
culating 100000 volumes a year may be
a greater force in the community than the
one which circulates 25O,OO volumes. He
says that the real measure of success Of
a library can be determined only by ask
ing tho people who use it what it means
TO them. The circulation Of this library
however, compared with the circulation
Of others proves conclusively that the
readers who use il are as intelligent, and
as high a class Of books are circulated as
in any city of its size.
The number OF children using the IL
brary was greater than ever before, al
though owing to the cramped quarters
of the library. no attempt was made to
introduce some Of the modern methods
for attracting children used by other Ii
braries
Books as usual were sent to the schools
and the children's Librarian in the fall
made several visits to the schools and
gave talks on the uses Of books.
That the library is expanding is shown
by the fact that another deposit station
corresponding with that in the Ninth ward
has been established at the Woodlawr
Club on West Sixth street This club while
theoretically limited 20 residents on the
Woodlawn property, has very generously
thrown open its rooms for the use Of
books to all those who care to use It.
Much interest in the collection has been
shown by the management and by the
residents Of that section of the city. This
station simply shows what could be done
IN a dozen other parts of the city II the
library had the funds to carry on the
work
The city during the year appropriated
$3.50 year for the work with the blind.
This extra appropriation enabled the
library to provide a room which could be
used part of each day for the exclusive
use of blind readers It also enabled the
library to distribute the books from house
to house by means of a man who is almost
blind, but who can see sufficiently well TO
get about the city. During the year a
number Of books read by the blind was
20, an increase Of 19S over the year before.
The appropriation from the city enabled
the library to buy a number Of hooks for
the blind. relieving it Of the necessity OF
borrowing such books from other Libraries
as has been done in the past.
Other interesting details are noted in
lhe report which is for free distribution
at the library. or will be sent to any whs
desire It.

Deputy Attorney General Daniel o.
