to council on mondaj weve done the best we can with our budget but we do not offer the public the facilities that other towns our size do said mrs hewson the board wants more books and a renovated basement as well as improvements in the main library rooms other libraries she explained have their capital costs met bv the town but in georgetown the local board has financed these from its v earl j grants she read excerpts from a letter from miss smith a bb- ran inspector pointing out that georgetown does not give tht service to children that it should that the librarv is popular wshown in statistic 42 000 i books issued last year and a membership of 4761 the board expects to have a surplus of 3 000 which could be used for capital improve ments mrs hewson said and she wondered if a winter works program could not be used to make the improve ments an estimated 50 of the improvements would be labour cost for which senior governments pay 751 major hvde explained that processing of winter works pro- grams takes over a month and thdt there would be slight chance of embarking on any program which could be com pleted by the aprrl 30th dead- iine perhaps it would be wise to plan
