Well-Rounded Lilomr Litem ll Center of 'School In December ol' 1965, the Paul Chandler Library and lnstructional Materials Center was dedicated by Livonia city ofhcials. The library had been open for use since school opened the previous year, but the name of the former Livonf ian, an active citizen, journalist, and politician, had not ofli- cially been given to the library until the dedication ceref monies. Vkfith the opening of school, an entirely new staff ol' librarians and secretaries, headed by chief librarian, Mr. Kemp, instituted a new system of arrangement in the library. XVith the help of the librarian, students soon learned to make use of the library's many facilities. New ideas, such as con- ference rooms which allowed students to view lilm strips. listen to tapes, and discuss projects without disturbing others, were greatly appreciated. New books, magazines, pamphlets, and pleasant sur- roundings help attract teachers, students, and visitors to the unusual circular room. Running the library involves the aid of forty student volunteers, competent secretaries and li- brarians, and the cooperation of the entire school. 1- as Stzulents found that topics came under iz variety of head- of lopadoteirmclzoselaelzogcileokmnioleipsanodrimlzypotrimm- ings in the card catalog.
