Burley Deweese and Mrs.
Bunch Nugent of our suff
attended a training workshop
sponsored by theState Library
ta Asheville recently.

better.
The Nantahala Regional
Library receives State Aid
and Federal Aid for library
services. During the past five
years this library received a
total of $65,530,32 in State

library board on problems of
all kinds.

free "Talking Books" from
the State Library. The Talk
ing Books are special phono
graph records made by actors
and other prominent people
with good voices who volunteer
their services. The Bible, the
Readers Digest magazine and
all kinds of books are avail
able.
The State Library, re
organ zed in July 1956 by a
merger of the Library Com
mission and the old State
Library, has so increased its
services that books and per
sonnel are crowded beyond the
point of efficiency. It operates
wi>h two other agencies in a
building designed for the
Supreme Court. Various study
commissions have recom
.mended that a functional
library building be con
structed and that present
space be converted to state
offices. The legislature has
approved the recommends don
by including a proposed
building, to be shared with
the Department of Archives
and History, in the lute bond
elecdon on November 7.
