Radios are installed whenever they are available, and although jukeâ€"boxes are not conâ€" sidered a part of the library‘s equipment, the music from those in nearby service clubs often reaches the ears of the soldier readers and livens up the already friendly atmosphere of the li~ brary.

Many people wonder what hapâ€" pened to the books collected in this country during the war in the Victory Book Campaign, Miss Russell said..,. These books did reach the men overseas, but they were in .suck demand that they were worn out in just a short time and the Army had to buy replace ments. In many Cises the books that are being used overseas toâ€" day are the third and fourth reâ€" placements. A Lack of personnel is another problem facing an Army librarian in Europe, according to Miss Rus sell. Because of the fact that there are many more libraries than there are librarians the latter ofâ€" ten act as supervisors for a numâ€" ber of libraries within a given territory. Native librarians and American enlisted personnel do the work behind the desk.
