The possible effects of this project may be the foliTiation of a three or four county library system by 1967 or 1968 . The library system law passed in Topeka in the spring of 1965 will make possible throughout the state numerous federations of libraries , each able to provide services to broad areas by m~ans of taxes on areas not novr taxed for library services as well as anticipated state aid to libraries ld thin systems . ' • The immediate benefits to Lal·rrence under such a system Hould come with Larrrence serving as a library center for a multi- county library area . Its book collections and its professional services would be increased considerably, and it would serve as a major information center for a broad area . The most important changes vri thin the library in 1965 \lere in the areas of service . A new circulation system was installed in the Adult Department in April , 1965 . This ~s designed to make work operations more efficient in view of the large increase in oook circulation over the past several years . As a result of the time saved from routine duties such as overdue procedures , more staff time r~as made available for orLr~ri ser,nces to patrons . The new or increased services include: 1 -Home deliver,y service to shut-ins . By the end of 1965 this direct book service to the aged or infirn was being brought to lh!rT patron:; will be added as the service gro\'TS . 24 persons in Lav~ence . 2 - By mean 3 of a teletype network spread throughout six main ~b:aries in Kansas , we nm~ have interlibrary loan access to over one m.J.llion books. In the first month of its operation in 1965, LaHrence borro\·7ed 121 books for loan to our patrons . In months since , we have borrovred an average of 100120 books each month . Rese r ves are nm-1 being filled for patrons in a matter of days rather than ~eeks in most case:; . 3 - The most important internal ::;ervice added in 1965 •,ras the establishm~mt of a seoarate reference advisor desk . Al~hough ma?ned only on a part-tJ.me b · t t signs are already eV1dent of ~ncreased 9atron use of our afsls a presde? 'r ormat;onal materials .

In the p~st , La\-tr~nce Public Library has prl)vided llmited service to the schools through d:trect classroom loans of books to teachers . As school$ increase the numbers of books in their libraries this service to teachers \dll naturally decrease . Since the number of school l~ans has figurad at bett-~een 15, 000-20,000 a ~ar, the change may have noticeable i~~ediate effects on circulation of children ' s books . In the long run, hmvever, good school libraries t-rill complement public librarJ service to children, ~ot replace it . Experience in other areas indicates that good school libraries staffed by experienced librarians , develop public library users among pupils at an ~arly age , \-Iho continue to use public library facilities as they grow older • 1 A - 3jor purchase during 1965 r:as a used International Harvester Truck to replace the old bookmobile . This vas fitted with shelves and used for the 1965 Summer Reading Prograw . In adiition, it is currently being used to orovide rotating book collec~ tions to the libraries being served by the pi l ot project mentioned earlier . i'he Children 1 s department again conducted a successful Summer Readin& Program . ~total of 1, 998 children signed up for the program . Of these , 1 , 529 completed the required reading and became eligibl e fo r a re~ding certificate or reading seal . frJrinG the year, story hour for pre - scnoolers continued to be nooular 1d th a total attendance of 952 children for the 2) Friday sessions held in l9u5 .

Physic!.ll changes within the building v1ere kept to a min:iJnum during the y7ar . Recogr~z:ng the need for additional physical facilities to properly serve a c~ty of LO,O"C, the l i bra~J board late in 1955 requested the St~te Library to conduct a :mrv.ay of the needs of the library and to suggest solut1.ons based on accepted standardr; of library se rvice .
