For the information of people who
are asking for further facts regard
ing the public library and the need
for larger quarters, the following re-
view is given, as to the growth of 1t
and the conditions attending that
growth.
The number of books acquired by
a library is known as accessions. 1t
includes the history of each book or
set of books, who gave 1t or when
bought, and the service it renders.
The number of loans made, Of
books going out and being returned,
the same ones loaned perhaps many
times, is called circulation.
The persons going into the library
to read, study or borrow reading
matter are known as patrons and one
person visiting the place hundred
times counts as 100 patrons.
The number af books accustomed
since the opening of the records Is
5342. The number shown in the in
ventory now being taken will be
about 400, the differences, or
shrinkage being explained below.
The number of loans made, circu-
lation in recent years is for the year
ending June 80, 1921, approximately,
$1,000; 1922, $4,000; 1928, 10000.
The number of patrons are 1917,
5000; 1918, $4,000; 1919, $4,000;
1920, $1,000; 1921, $4,000; 1922,
$4,000; 1928, $4,000.
AcceSSiOnS
The record we found begins with
1921, when the number stood at
1862. In 1922 it rose to 44O0, and
now stands at 5342.

Resolution
Whereas the Blackfoot library is
making a phenomenal growth and is
serving large numbers of students
from both town and country, who
find in it fine sets of reference books
as well as the worlds best literature,
and whereas
There Is need of more room for
books and more room for students
to read and study, and whereas
People are agreed that the
library Is q public benefit, At place
for people of all ages to patronize,
no division Of opinion exists and no
opposition Is developing as to the
character of the place or the effect of
visiting or using it, and whereas
There is not room for all who wish
to use it and there is objection to
and anxiety about and division of

especially, patronizing other popular
places that are open to them, and
whereas
Blackfoot has many private
libraries that might yield up large
numbers of books for public use by
loan or gift, If there was only room
for them to be handled by the eff
ficient system in use in the public
library, therefore be it resolved
That the Board of Education of In
dependent School District No. 8 oil

endorsement of the library move

and county to unite on some plan
for a Bingham county library Access
