N the Travelling High School Sci
ence Library Program has been ac-
cepted by the American Associa-
ton of the Advancement of Sci
ence, and 200 outstanding, evalua-
ted, up-to-date best seller" type
books in the sciences and mathema-
tics will circulate to the school Ii
brary from Washington, ID. c. All
branches of science will be covered
and the reading level will range
from books the brilliant junior high
student will find interesting to
some that will give the Outstand-
ing high school senior a taste of
advanced work. The collection lists
for more than $1,000.
The idea for this experimental
program, aimed at interesting
more students in scientific and
technical careers, originated with
the National Science Foundation,
an agency of the Federal Govern
ment established in 1850 ito pro-
mote the progress of science -.
The AAAS was requested to admin
lister the program.
The AAAS was organized in
184S and is the oldest national sci
entific society. 1t is federation of
279 scientific and professional So
3ieties and has over $4,000 individ-
ual members. 1t accepted the NSF
grant, and in 1855 selected and ad-
ministered the first library of $50
books which circulated to Sc
schools. From this modest begin
ming the program has expanded un-
Ill during 1958-59 the: library will
go to about 1,400 schools in every
State in the Union, Hawaii, Alaska,
the Canal Zone, Puerto Rico, the
American Community School of
Paris (France), and to u. S. Army
dependents schools in France, Ger
many, Italy and Okinawa.
The 200 books are circulated 500
at a time to four high schools in
geographical proximity, the cases
rotating every two months. In this
way new titles with a fresh appeal
to the eye and mind appear peri
odically. The books are on display
in the school library, and represen-
tatives of PTA, civic groups, SER
vice organizations and interested
individuals are invited to examine
them.
In addition to this collection, the
High School Library has 7S new
books in the field of science, in
cluding books on mathematics, as
tronomy, atomic energy, weather,
insects, birds, animals and archeo-
logy.
