Of the many citizens served by our library, as well as scores of others seeking its continued de velopment—these will be interested to learn that much signi ficant thinking and study has been going on and is still under way.

After considering the sit uation of the various public libraries in the County, those present elected a committee, with Mr. Wood as its chair man, to renresent each com munity and to approach the County Commissioners with two requests; (1) for funds that would make possible a -urvey of what library ser vices the County has already, a? well as what the needs are; (2) for increased support from the Commissioners in the meantime for all cf the public libraries in the County. With these various develop ments, one can recognize good library service throughout the. County is a deep concern of many people.
