H f 0 -A N supplement for study, through an excellent reference section. Under the direction of the Librarian, Brother Franciscus Willett, C.S.C., the library was started and has been expanded in both scope and content in the five years of its existence. It procures the finest available literature of all kinds, fitted to suit all tastes, and provides fully for the needs of the student, both academically and for private reading pleasure. The library listening room is well stocked with a varied selection of recordings both as a teach- ing tool and as a means of arousing interest in literature for outside pleasure and benefit. Some of the varied services which the library provides are vocational and pamphlet files, and a file of mounted reproductions of fine art masterpieces. The Librarian and his staff of student volunteers strive to keep the Holy Cross library running in a smooth, harmonious manner and suc- ceed admirably in this respect. They are continually stimulating interest in literature and intellect- ual endeavors in general, through the use of varied attractive displays. The fact that the volumes contained in the library are so diversified is not by accident. Each book has been carefully selected for its value as an academic aid or for its literary content. We at Holy Cross are thankful for our well stocked and well run library, for the aid it provides, and the riches it contains within its volumes. y ...,,,,,w? f 'I ma 'l'0n', w 4 Muni' :Ima Gee whiz-cbooring rome recordf to lirterz to ir almorl at bard dl trying to decide what kind of ' ire fream to buy, .
