Shannon Henderson, assistant librarian, accepts a book on behalf of the library from Jim Staggs, executive secre- tary of the Alumni Association. One of the ways in which the library is able to help is by the use of approximately one-hundred and fifty-four thousand books. The program consists of four tapes that explain to the listener the card catalog, a brief orientation of the library and the ERIC, series. The library is also responsible for send- ing overdue notices to anyone with an overdue book. The staff believes that everyone should have an equal chance to use the materials offered. Fines are simply to discourage people from keeping mate- rial too long.
