Microfilms, magazines and newspapers enhance the practical utility of the Valley College Library. The periodicals room is a separate section away from the bound volumes. It has 500 monthly and weekly magazines, 17 newspapers, 839 microfilms, 20 indexes and 606 college catalogs available for student use. Because of crowded conditions that also exist in this section of the library, any magazine issues over five years old are put on microfilm, which is sold to students for 10 cents per magazine page. These periodi- cals also include copies of the Valley Star, Crown and Sceptre magazines, the college publications. The walls of the library are stationary until money is received to begin construction of a new addition. Until then, books, books, books, books are still the problem. The uses of microfilm are demonstrated by librarian Mrs. Barbara Toohey. The roll of film she is holding contains a picture of every page in the year's magazines in front of her. Librarian Toohey checks out the microfilm reader to sophomore Michael Mularky, who wants to use past issues of one of the library's 541 periodicals. . -Q. , , ZX: -- T1 ' I 1 'Pm R- r 1 l .Q -fr, 32 Q, ,P .- s -- - ' -'- . . -, ' f 1 I '-1 :. , 3' T, -Xa-A 411 -57.- CU

Held on Dec. 16 and 17 the sale was completely organized and run by students. It was the first sale of this type held at Valley though Mrs. Zella Marggraf, club sponsor, had been thinking about the idea for several years.
