Here the uiet atmos here makes concentration easier, and the willin' hell of Miss LI P iv l Lytle and Mrs. Cody in looking up reference material proved invaluable. Regular classes are held each year giving instruction in the use of the library and all referenee materials. Through the Readers' Guide and card eatalogues, information seekers were able to locate the exact material desired. The magazine room irovided ea l up-to-date pamphlets, newspapers and magazines to meet the needs of all. Checking out books, refiling. repairing damaged editions, and answering student inquiries kept the library staff on the jump from eight to four every day.
