LIBRARIAN'S REPORT:
The Librarian's Report was read. The Board members were especially interested in the
Summer Reading Program activities of the Children's Room. Trustee Lynes commented that
the school visitations by Mrs. Dunn and Miss Riordan, to promote the program, were very
successful. Trustee Lynes suggested, however, due to the hectic end-of-the-year schedule
the school visitations might be made one week earlier. The Librarian stated that the
suggestion would be brought to the attention of Mrs. Dunn and Miss Riordan for next year's
program, but thought that going to the schools too far in advance would hurt the program's
enrollment.

they have held their Board meetings for the past two years.
