Student Librarians learn by activities I am the library I am neither the walls, nor shelves Nor even the books That stand in rows, I am the wisdom of the universe Captured and arranged for you, I am an open door Enter . New to Mercy’s curriculum this year, the Library Science course was established to promote an active interest, along with a scientific approach to the field of library work. Students of this course seek to become proficient with the many phases of librarian- ship through their Library Aides Club. Under the guidance of Sister Emma, students learn the art of skillfully operating audio-visual materials, catalogu- ing, and shelving books.

Meeting every third Friday of the month, the girls unite to further their knowledge of progressive business methods. Under the guidance of Mrs. Nancy Setlock, club moderator, the ever-growing Commercial Club strives to promote interest in various aspects of the business world. In order to achieve this goal, the club sponsors numerous tours of large business corporations. Through these, girls also become acquainted with the latest in business equipment. During National Secretary Week the Commercial Club honors the OLM business department including the administration's num- ber one aide, Mrs. Harkness.
