Eh -- LIBRARY Summer Course Mr:. MacFarlane, Librarian This the Public Branch of the Department of Educa- year Libraries tion, sponsored three Summer Courses at Kingston, Barrie and Sarnia, Lib- in elementary library science, rarians or members of library boards from towns oF villages with a populas tion of 2000 and under were eligible for registration. Last year when the course was first intraduced, schools "were held in Hamilton and London, but- these were so quickly over-sub- scribed that it was felt wise to meet the demand for such instruction by having an extra group this summer. ) Each class consisted normally of not + = A ---- more than twenty persons. Your local librarian was fortunate in being ac- cepted for enrolment at Kingston, where there were only ten students in all,--a circumstance in favour of those . 1 attending, in that they were given more individual instruction. Other libraries represented in the Kingston class were Aurora, Perth, Lakefield,' Camden East, Uxbridge, Brooklin, Bowmanville, Solina, and Palmerston. Classes were held daily in _ the PETERBORO FAIR NEXT WEEK Hear Professor G./1, Christie, of Guelph Agricultural College, Thursday afternoon.

This is a co-operative movement of small libraries to organ- ize together into county groups, and "the scheme is progressing favorably in Lambton, Middlesex and' Elgin counties. Sucha plan was adopted in Simcoé county this year. Miss Car- -lisle stated that the Government is "anxious for greater. co-operation among the libraries in the smaller centres, to enable them to buy books more cheaply and raise the "standard of their community service generally. Mr. E. C. Kyte, librarian at Queen's University, gave special lectures on . Bibliography and book collections, in the latter of which he described the libraries and methods of book collect- ing, of several. English peers.

Later in the course Mr. Kyte conducted the class through the magnificent Douglas Memorial Library at Queen's. Visits were made almost daily to the Kingston Public Library, where practice in book-binding was obtained, and where Mrs. Kennedy, chief lib- arian, gave lectures on Children's ed last Tuesday with Mr. and Mrs. Robt.
