The increase of 2.2% this uronth in circulation does not r:flect the extensive use of magazin.s which the school students have been consulting for their term papers, particularly students from Capuchino. Soup method of counting such usage should be instigated mostly to show the incr:as3d use in the library of unbound periodicals. The librarian studied several proposals for charging non-residents for service by. contracting r:ith the city of their r,sidence for payment. The pro;)osal r.hich was discuss-ed With the City :yianager of Hillsborough is as follows: The total budget expenditure $70,460.00 vias divided by the number of patrons (10,400) . This gave us a cost of $6.77 per patron. Tnis was discuss:�d as a possible basis for furnishing library cards to any resident of aillsborough. The library would bill the City of Hillsborough quarterly or sem i-annuallyv they in turn would levy a special tax to cover this cost. This would allow a small beginning and in all probability would grog, to a thousand or more card hold yrs. Th^ total cost to the City of Hillsborough would not equal the amount (20,000) which would be levied by the County provided the City of Hillsborough was still a is-,mb,r of the county system, MS JINGS ATV-144 EO.
