The Bookmobile
Making Rapid Progress
The numerous and effective
moder methods of transmitting
information are tied in with most
of today's social and economic
problems. Newspapers, periodicals
and boos have been the backbone
of our educational and informa
tional systems. Today, however
their places of prominence in ed
ucation and newsgiving are being
challenged by radio and motion
picture, which have quickly spread
In education, the application of
beyond the entertainment fields,
these modern methods of com
munication may well effect a com
plete change i n methods of educa
tion both the child and the adult,
but nn educational background
through good reading is an ever
lasting accomplishment that no
one can take from us and in return
we have a broad knowledge and
I undertaking of everything.
Experts in the field of library
I problems report that the foremost
j public library need in this country
j is more adequate distribution. 45
million persons in the United
States have no library service and
that a like number has inadequate
service. The problem of providing
service to these groups is of pri
mary importance in the develop
ment of library service.
As for differences between town
nnd country -ervices, iiithortea
have found that library services
are far more inadequate for the
rural that the urban population.
Even where library service is act
ually extended to the rural areas,
it is reported to be seldom equal
in quality to that which is given
to residents of cities and towns.
The library needs of the scholiv
and tiie student have been found
to be usually better supplied than
those ol the general reader in the
email town or in the country.
In order that students may
satisfy their intellectual needs,
a large collection of books cover
ing a wide variety of subjects is
essential. The realization that
children in elementary schools
need many library books to read
in developing reading and com
prehensive ability has resulted in
greater consideration for younger
readers in library purchases. The
trend in buying has in recent years
been toward providing library
Books at all grade levels and
thereby equalizing library oppor
tunities.
Considerable care has beefl
taken to keep the books in the
libraries in as good repair as pos
sible. The major portion of mend
ing has been done through the
Library Project of WPA which
has furnished the labor for the
work.
Tiie Book mobile, sponsored by
the County Board of Education,
|is making rapid progress in the
circulation of books throughout
the county. The bookmobile covers
all parts of the county, and the j
books circulated by the book- i
mobile are proving helpful to j
teachers students and all book-1
minded persons in both rural and \
urban localities ol the county. Ily j
this method of circulation, th" |
rural communities have the ramie
opportunity as the urban com- |
muniteis in the selection of books
they choose to read.
