The timing was great, for a Luck lot of books were needed for the library here. The books bought from them were books that are no longer available in stores. Head Librar- ian, Sondra Cohen, commented, If Fullerton I think that the passes were a good idea, that way the li- brary could never get too crowded. Union High didn ' t sell us all their valuable and beneficial books after they closed, we wouldn ' t have most of the books that we do. I feel that these books are a valuable asset to the students ' education here at Diamond Bar High. The library served many purposes, not just a shelter for when it was raining. It was also a place to check out all kinds of books and a place to study. Students were able to check out most of the books, but there were some that were for library use only. Some of the reference books and the oversized books were for library use only. Many students used the library as a place to study. Lunchtime passes were issued before school and during brunch. A student was only allowed in the library with a pass. Karen Jen- sen, a junior, commented, I think that the passes were a good idea, that way the library could never get too crowded.
