«n cmowam nmat warn iron, wow cuouna, NOVEUBSK It, ltTf KW/'< ireHOOKED ON BOOKS ln tjjese days when addiction of o»je kind or another is the iiibject of great concern. I’d tfte to tell you about a dif ferent kind of compulsion: the love of reading. The book which impressed me mdst during my recent stu dies at the School of Library Science in Chapel Hill was written by Daniel N. Fader, a processor of English at die University of Michigan, de scribing ' his work with so called juvenile delinquents. The title of the book was Hooked on Books and it de picted the phenomenal re sults of massive doses of paperback books given to boys who had never succeed ed at reading before. It is wonderful to be able to re port that Dr. Fader is even more inspiring in person than in his book. He was the speaker at the first general session of the 24th biennial conference of the Southeast ern Library Association held in Atlanta last week which it was my privilege to attend, along with 1,300 other li brarians from nine southern states. Among the many hew insights which Dr. Fader put into words for us were is something you want to do—l used to think it was something - somebody elise wanted you to do." "Privilege equals being able to delay gratification because you can wait for tomorrow. Underprivileged kids never use the phrase ’when I grow up’ because their hopes are impoverished.” The chal lenge which he gave to li brarians is to remediate mo tivation which is what is , lacking rather than ability to read. In his words. “How you feel about reading is more important than whether you read good.” Screeches i; HUNG UP IN ATLANTA— Iti between meetings with other good speakers, there was time .for sightseeing stich as the tour of Under ground Atlanta (an area tfrhich was hidden 50 years ago by a vast system of via ducts near the Terminal and which is being restored to its gay 90’s ap pearance), a quick shopping trip to Rich’s and my neme sis, the Regency Hyatt House.

On the second try, with fewer passengers and an op erator at the controls, the elevator went .faster than my stomach but the view was worth it.
