Library Richard Brinsley Sheridan once said, A circulation library. . .is an evergreen tree of knowledge. The Living- ston High School library is an active area of the school all day long. Whether looking for information on a term paper, browsing through the fiction room, or reading about current events in one of the daily newspapers, stu- dents find that the library has a great deal to offer. The library, with its wide variety of reference material, is a use- ful and informative place to visit. In addition to the numer- ous books, the library supplies students with sundry maga- zines, films, records, and microfilm. Livingston students who make use of the high school library will find that it is an evergreen tree of knowledge, and that they can bene- fit from its resources. 'lf-4 WN!
