LIBRARY Mrs. Mary L. Hardie, Head Librarian The library has had a struggle to reach its present posi- tion. It was started with a F5120 fund obtained from 'lthe proceeds of various entertainment given by the schoolfj Raising money to increase its facilities was not -always Miss Martha Bozeman, Librarian easy. For example, a concert was glven for the libraryis beneht in the 18905. All but S30 was used to purchase electric lamps. The desire and need for an adequate school library over- came these diihculties. Today, 10,800 volumes and three librarians serve the needs of the students.

Theodora Apostolacus Department Head B.S., Trenton State College MA., Columbia Teachers College GUIDA CE E, Frank West B.S., Trenton State College M.Ed., Rutgers University Wayne M. Stevenson B.Ed., Bucknell University The Guidance department took root in a berry crate tucked away in the biology lab. As the seed grew, the department branched out to include the extensive Hlcs of occupational materials and col- lege catalogues now used in the guidance office. In l95l, Guidance became a separate depart- ment with Mrs. Gertrude Morresy as its head. Its purpose has remained the same: to help students make intelligent decisions in planning for their future. Throughout the year, the Guidance department sponsors career and college conferences, which supplement the personal interview. These aid the college preparatory students in deciding on which college to attend and the general and business stu- dent in job placement. Barbara M. Maggie Secretary
