Tribune Bureau Sir Waiter Hotel Raleigh, July • 21.—Although li brary facilities in the schools of the state have been materially increased in tfie last three years as the result of the $3,000 annual appropriation for school libraries, far more are ap plying for help than can be given with this limited amount and recom mendation is made that the appropria tion be increased from 53.000 to $lO.- 000 yearly in the annual report of Miss Susan'Fuighum, state inspector of elementary schools, under whose supervision this work falls. Her full report covering the past three years has just been submitted to A. T. Allen, state superintendent of public instruction. For any school to benefit from this fund, which is distributed in units of SSO to a school, the eounty and district must each give SSO, in order to secure the SSO from the state, thus making $l5O in all spent for increased library facilities each time SSO is al loted from this fund. In the past three years 221 schools have received aid from this sum. mak ing a total of $33,150 expended in this period to increase tSie library fa cilities. The number of volumes in these 221 schools has been inerensed from 04.103 three years ago to 128,- 577 at present as a result of this aid. Kith a total enrollment of 02.130, there were 46.477 borrowers and 224,- 850 books have been loaned in the past year. Several schools have spent considerably more than the $l5O apiece allowed under the state aid plan, and 108 of the 221 schools re port a total expenditure of $68,709.50 spent for books in this three-year period. The outstanding needs of this work, according to Miss Fuighum, are an increased appropriation, making the amount available annually $lO,- 000; that the State aid be given after the books have been purchased by the school; and that teachers be more adequately trained in library work ami the use of books witfj children. A better system of organization for handling the books and keeping of more complete records is also recom mended. New Building of Revenue Depart ment.
