SCREECHES PROMIISES, PROMISE— One of the continuing items of business whenever the Processing Center Advisory Committee meets is the problem of faster service from book dealer. Our meeting in Fayetteville last week was no* exception. There are five librarians from different sized public library systems who meet with the executives of the Center and other* members of the State Library staff to confer on the various problems associated with the purchase and processingof bookds. Only four of us were able to make it this time, due to the gas shortage. Because of the size of the combined book orders from the 50 or so library systems using the Processing Center, wholesalers are anxious to do business with us (in 1972-73, almost 120,000 books were purchased and processed by the Center)’. And thus, they maim rather rash promises about their ablity to deliver. For instance, a company which guaranteed a 90 per cent Fill Rate was only able to provide 67 per cent of the books on orders given them. They have promised to do better!

Here are some simple pre cautions which seem to pre vent highway hypnosis. Make a special effort to stay alert. Keep the car well ventilated. Keep your eyes moving. Eat som.e candy or chew gum. Stop regularly for refreshment and exercise. Concentrating on driving technique tests your driving skill and helps keep you alert.
