The above was taken directly from the Library Boar's manual, the very first page and the very first reason for its existence. S The Library's conscientious staff itself always' looks forward to encouraging aduits and child- ren, both students and noustud- ents, to regard the Public Library, and utijize the Public Library, as a source o! knowledge and recre- ation,-,fory lifelong use.
