Invaluable Assistants Inventory is one of the biggest jobs in which the club assists the library, and this club member is doing his share. Library Club Any library is an essential organ for the proper functioning of a school. This fact is certainly no exception at A.C.H.S. Unquestionably, a library will not operate itself. This is why the Library Club plays such an important role in the maintaining of the welfare of the students. At least one of the mem- bers of this organization may be observed on duW at the library desk at all times. They must perform such duties as operating and maintaining Audio-Visual equipment, mending books, and assisting students in finding desired books. Library workers Patsy Adams and Patsy Franklin repair books for use. 74
