to Join and use the three town libraries at much lower fees this year The township recently created its own library board to study library service for township residents and take advantage of provincial government grants offered to municipalities Studies showed it was financially and geographically Impossible to erect one library to serve the townships far flung population but a better idea emerged Share la grant will encourage its residents to use the already- established and wellstocked facilities and services In the three towns and turn over its 65 cents per capita grant to those three libraries There are around residents and the- grant at cents per head works out to around to be split among the Milton Georgetown and Acton library boards To encourage the township readers to patronize the town libraries the library boards have agreed to drop their nonresident fees ranged from to per and around 1 per child per year to the Intown rate usually 10 cents for a three year period And theres no limit to the amount of books you can borrow for that fee All the town libraries are so close to main population explains Mrs Ruth Wilson of the newlycreated Library Board It would be Impossible to build a central library in the township that would be close enough for many of the residents to use it she added Wouldnt pay fee None of the members of the new library board belonged to a library in one of the district towns we wouldnt pay the fees she adds Some day maybe Esquesing will be able to launch a book mobile service a travelling library which could spend a few hours In each of the pockets of population scattered through Esquesing The grant Is to be apportioned to the three town libraries on the basis of township residents use of the town library facilities Headcounts will be taken twice a year and the library drawing the most township dwellers will obtain the larger share of Esquesings grant Besides Mrs Wilson members of the Library Board are Mrs Anne
