Libruriun Says
Concluded from yesterday
In the Library Journal for
September 1855 there is an ar
ticle entitled Lets Push
School Libraries at the White
House Conference" It ex-
plains the Importance Of
school libraries in the general
educational scheme and says
q few pertinent facts about
school librarians:
School Librarians should be the
most .winsome and best trained
persons in the schools. They
should excel in personality. en-
thusiasm. and eagerness TO serve.
They should have had teaching
experience. or at least a teacher
point Of view. and a thorough
knowledge Of the total school pro
gram. They should be able to
work with people. Everywhere
there IS a shortage Of qualified
librarians. There is need for a
new kind Of school for training
librarians who understand chill
dren and know teaching"
Mr.. Emanuel potentially
fills this bill and is embarking
on what might become the
efficient service in the Chris
tiansted High School. Here is
a new librarian with a fresh
and enthusiastic outlook. The
chances of eventual profess
sional training will come af-
ter the proper introduction to
work and its aims are well in
tegrated.
The question Of whether the
High School Library has a
catalog of its books, the ans
wer is yes, a catalog is in pro-
cess Of establishment. That is,
at the time the high school
library was at its old quarters
there had been q pretty fair
catalog of its contents, but the
library had changed hdnds
many times and many books
were lost or withdrawn from
the existing catalog. An in
