Librarian Tells
of Coordination
Gives Information on Successful Unit
ing of The High School and
Public Library
(By NJ. Francis Moore.)

The Sank Center public library,
which as the Bryant Library asso-
citation. is one of the oldest and
wisestl in the state is the first to
consolidate with the school library
under the new Minnesota law, which
took effect September 1913. A joint
meeting of the library board and
school board was held in September,
when Miss Wilson, Supervisor of
School Libraries, and Miss Baldwin
of the Library Commission were pres
emit, and the details of the contract
and methods of the work were dis
cussed The school library of over
/ 500 volumes has been turned over
to the public library to be occassioned
and catalogued and administered by
the librarian of the public library.
The School District also pays to the
library board all the state library aid
to which it is entitled, and all addi-
tional running expenses incurred by
longer hours of service and extra
work involved. In turn, the public
library agrees to furnish to the school
all the books needed for its work,
many of the books being kept in class
rooms throughout the school year,
and to expend all the money received
from stata library fund for hooks
on the school library list. Miss Haven,
the commission organizer, spent near
" three weeks in Sank Center as
sisting their librarian in catalog-
ing the books, and getting the
new system in operation. In addi-
ton the High School pupils are
taken, through the library, in groups
and explained and taught the gen.
eral arrangement of the books, use
of the catalogue and indexes, and
