Davis, director of the State Library, Salt Lake City, and members of his staff are in Springville this week, to evalu-ate the books in the public li-brary. Working with them have been Mrs. Hal Clyde, secretary of the library board, with local librarians in attend-ance. As result of the evaluation, a number of obsolete books are being discarded. Some have been found to be beyond re-pair while others have become outmoded and useless as new-er, more easily read te books are available on the same subjects. In going over the books on the shelves, some areas have been found where new books are needed, while in some in-stances books occupy space on the shelves and have not been used by the public enough to make them worth the space they occupy. The visiting officials, all of whom have Masters degrees in Library Science, pointed to the cost of maintaining books on the shelves which are not read. They stressed a point that through the present evaulation of the books in which every book in the library will be carefully gone over, will come many new books. As a re-sult, the public is expected to take advantage more often of the material offered at the li-brary. The visiting librarians com-mended the fine work of the Springville librarians and said that the Springville library was found in much better on page 9, col. 2) District essay honor goes to SHS junior Merlene Schreiner, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Merle Schrein-er, has won the Americanism essay contest, sponsored by the American Legion Auxil-iary, in the ditrict it was an-nounced this week by chair-man Emma Long.
