The meeting of the Clearwat~r Public Library Board was
called to order by the chairman, Mr. Taver Bayly. All members
were .resent. They are Dr. A. T) Cornwell, Mts. Julia Cox,
.fw1r. Robert Dixon and Mr's. Eugene L. Pearce.
The chairman called for a brief report of recent activities
at the library~The librarian reported that the extensive repairs
, . and redecol;"ating had reached a total cost of $5599.64 to date,
, " I ~ . . ' ,
and.th.at $4723~28 had been spent from city budget in other
expenditures, leaving a balance of $7477.08 f~r the remaining
seven months.
The librarian reported that the records show fewer tourist
registrations in the deposit category, but that the circulation
records for the last three months show a .considerable increase
, ,
over the same period in 1947. Such figures seem to indicate that
a larger percentage of ' the patronage has come into the permanent
resident category and that the patrons as a whole are re~ding
extensively.
"
The report went on to say that both bindery and: equipment
costs have been especially h8BVY, but that bindery service has
been improved, and equipment is more obtainable. Cons~quently,
both the shelves and the files are more nearly in condition and
up to date.
