Deposit Station at Kingsley House
On January 27 a deposit station of the Library was opened
at Kingsley House through the kind cooperation of those in
charge of the House, about 300 books for children and young
people being placed there on deposit. These may be obtained
for home use on Monday afternoons and evenings and Saturday
afternoons, when an assistant from the Wylie Avenue
branch library is in charge, the deposit station being under the
management of that branch. On Monday afternoons also a
story hour is conducted by an assistant from the Library.
In the room with the Library books is a collection belonging
to Kingsley House, as well as a number of current magazines.
These books and magazines may be used in the room
ever}' afternoon and evening.
Call Station in Kaufmann's Store
The call station opened in Kaufmann's store on January 8
shows a steady and encouraging increase in use, though its
existence is not yet realized by all those to whom it would be a
great convenience. In order to spread the news of its establishment,
placards have been posted in various places in the
city where they may be widely read, and printed slips have been
distributed in the books lent from the Library, in addition to
the publication of notices in the newspapers and the publicity
given the station by the firm in whose store it is located.
The station is open daily with assistants from the Library in
charge. Numerous catalogues and reading lists are supplied
from which book titles may be selected. There is daily delivery
of books so that anyone leaving a request one day will be able
to obtain the book the following day.
