,..,...i. I Library Staff Porter Library Wlieri Kansas State Teachers College CPittsburgD was founded in 1903, as State Nlanual Training Normal, a library was installed in the officc of the principal. This was necessary because Miss Odella Nation, the librarian, was also secretary to the principal. The library soon outgrew these quarters, and after being housed in three separate locations, was moved into its own building in 1927. Porter library, opened in May of that year, was named for former State Senator Ebenezer F. Porter, who was instrumental in the estab- lishment of the college. The building is air-conditioned and contains four large reading rooms, an exhibit area, U.S. Post Offce branch, college mailing offices, seminar rooms, faculty lounge, microfilm read- ing room, stacks, circulation area, and museum. It has 34,000 square feet of floor space, a seating capacity of 800, and book capacity of 150,- 000 volumes. Three departmental librarians serve the two laboratory schools of 600 students maintained in connection with the college and the department of library Science, which trains school librarians for the surrounding area. The library is staffed by forty full and part time staff members. The bool: collection contains 105,000 volumes. 1, l 1, ,. ..zfi.. :.'..-.., , V- ll f 1 ,D ,, lf A 1 lx, xl H7 ll X 1 ' f' :X 1 ,H lxl wr f '7f-' ,llfl'l .fll V ffm, A! lf 1. .ffffffff -r-l . fi, f- J 1 l . i ' .
