Annual Library Report.

The annual report for the library
year, ending Dec. 81. showed a bal
ance on hand in the treasury OF
s1,3s2.56 and the report of the librar-
ian, Miss Anna Maude Kan berry,
showed the effects Of the war and the
influIaza on the library.
The library was closed twice for
three weeks, each time on account OF
the epidemic, and the cost Of fuel and
light, also the scarcity Of help, forced
an earlier closing hour during the
year. This accounts for the decrease
in the circulation Of books and for
the smaller number Of readers regis
tered. The total circulation for the
year was $3.50. New readers to ting
number Of s72 were added making the
total number Of borrowers b,Ss7
seventy nine whom are out of-town
patrons.
The number Of books added was also
smaller than usual, 100 books being
the total Of purchases, gifts and maya
zines. Five hundred and seventeen
were withdrawn for various reasons
leaving the actual number Of books In
the library at 1885. The number OF
magazines and newspapers on file was
cut from 135 TO 1T.
The government asked for muc!
help from the library for the various
activities. Thru the courtesy OF its
uatrons the library was able to collect
ma send to environments over 1,5Ot
books and many thousands Of maya
zines. Seven hundred scrap books FOL
