C3BUS Thursday, July 12, 1984 Page 3 Library to fund textbook program By ART WOODRUFF Tar Heel Staff Writer The UNC Library System plans to fund the textbook reserve program proposed by Student Government, Paul Parker, student body president, said Monday. Forty books for 12 classes would be put on reserve at the Undergraduate Library starting in January, he said. James F. Govan, university librarian, decided Friday that the system would spend up to $&00 to start the program, Parker said. Michelle Killough, chairman of Student Government's text book committee, said that put ting textbooks on reserve was the idea of Carol Mulholland, the textbook committee chairman in 1982. "She thought we could help students by putting some text books on reserve, Killough said, "so you don't have to buy all your textbooks." The committee did research to see if the program would work and to find out which books should, be put on reserve, Kil lough said. "We picked the classes by enrollments," she said. Only classes with a large number of students were chosen to begin the program, so most of the classes involved are introductory courses. The courses that will be in the program include Economics 10, Business Administration 71, Biol ogy 10, and Psycholgy 10, she said. The books cannot be put on reserve until January because even with a rush order the books would not arrive for up to two months, she said, and then they would have to be catalogued. The librarians are also busy with faculty members' requests to have material put on reserve, she said. American Red Cross Call for your appointment today. V reatest SsIq Ever!

The library, which was the main university library until the completion of the Walter Royal Davis Library this year, is being renovated to house some of the university's special collections. The North Carolina Collec tion, consisting of material about the state and its people from the time of colonization, will be located on the main floor of the library. "We'll have much more reader space and a special Thomas Wolfe room," refer ence historian Alice Cotten said. An auditorium designed for the use of all the library col lections will also be on the main floor. The Rare Books Collection will be housed on the second floor of the library where the Humanities Reference Depart ment was located. The Manus cripts and Southern Historical Collection will be located on the third floor. The basement is being ren ovated to house the Maps Collection and the Media Cen ter, which has been located in several different places around the campus. "They're trying to keep most of the interior without any major changes," said Cliff Brock, associate librarian for special collections. "The plans are to refurbish it and preserve it," he added. The major changes would be in the office areas, the third floor and the basement, Brock said. The special collections have been moved to the stack addi tions of the library for the two year renovation period. Earlier renovations were completed in 1952 and 1977. When the building was ren ovated in 1952 two wings were added on either side of the central structure. Book stacks were added to the existing nine stack levels, and the air con ditioning was installed. In 1977, stacks were added to the back of the building. The library was built in 1929 to replace Carnegie Library, which is now Hill Hall. The limestone building, hous ing 400,000 volumes, com pleted the South Quadrangle formed by South Building, Carroll Hall and Manning Hall. The dedication of the library opened the 1929 Homecoming celebration. Until 1956, when the library was named the Louis Round Wilson Library, it was called University Library. Wilson, an 1899 graduate of UNC, was the university librar ian from 1901 to 1932. After establishing the School of Library Science in 1931, Wilson went to the University of Chicago to serve as the dean of the Graduate Library School. In 1942 Wilson returned to UNC as Kenan professor of Library Administration and director of the School of Library Science until his retire ment in 1959. "Wilson was hard-working and persistent," said Carolyn Wallace, director of Manus cripts. "He was a man of great vision." CGC from page 1 said. When Student Government fails to follow the guidelines, Boultori said, he reminds the president of the agreement and lets the government work out a way to correct the situation. The summer CGC may not have the power to amend the budget bill to fit the guidelines, Cole said. The summer CGC is given its powers by the full CGC. Everyone is reluctant to amend the budget bill because it will set a bad precedent, Cole said. However, if it is a bad budget, it should be amended, he said. Closs said most CGC members would like the budget to remain as it is because of the hassle involved in having to reallocate all the money to organizations. LOOKING FOR A HORSE?
