MANY BOOKS IN CIRCULATION
Business of the Library is Growing
Steadily and it is Used by all
Glasses Of People in the City-Many
Foreigners on Lists.

"The most important event during
the year was the renovation of the en-
tire building. No repairs to any extent
had been made since its erection in
1900 The entire interior was rcpaint-
ed and re-decorated, while the whole
exterior was cleaned and re-painted;
and on account of the settling of the
foundation under the concrete terrace
surrounding the building, it was neces-
sary to construct a new terrace. N.
Max Cunning was engaged as architect
to draw plans for rebuilding the ter
race and also the area way, making
several changes in the windows of the
basement, thus giving more light and
better ventilation to the children S
room.
During the past year the circulation
Of books for home use>was 95,790, an
increase of 500 over last year. This in
crease would have been considerably
larger had it not been for the fact
that the library was closed for repairs
during the months of July and August
ID days in the adult department and
~ days in the children's department.,
while the reading room was closed SC
days during the entire time of re-
decorating.
The average estimated loss of cir
culatlon was 5670 and this would make
an estimated total circulation of 1o1r
$50 for the year, or an increase Of G536
over last year.
The work with the children, one of
the most important departments, con
tinues TO grow. The past year 2070
children have visited the library for
help or recreation.
The library has been the recipient of
number of books from many of our
citizens, and also the bequest of Miss
Bessie f. Wells, which included her
entire private library.
\ During March and April instruction
was given by the acting Librarian on the
use of the library to students from the
seventh and eighth grades, and first and
second year high school. $50 students
received this instruction. Starting rath-
er late in the year for this new work,
not all of the students in these grades
were reached; but with an early start
the coming year, more can be accom-
plished along this line. The interest
and cooperation of the teachers has
help ID much in developing this side of
library work.
TO our foreign collection has been
added Holland department. of fifty
volumes The number of foreign books
circulated continues to show a healthy
increase.
