Show i MARCH 9, 1983 Increased Use In Countys Three Remaining Libraries By TOM BUSSELBERG FARMINGTON Although Layton City is no longer part of the county library system, the three county libraries continue to see marked increases in use. THE NORTH Branch in Clearfield, where most Layton residents obtained service, registered a 58 percent increase in January vs. a year ago although its total for 1982 was up by less than ,000 items 1 over the previous year, reported Library Director Jeanne Layton to the library board. Overall, the system recorded an 1 percent increase, items circuat 391,000-plu- s lated compared to just over 1 350,000 in 1981. The headquar- ters library in Farmington saw the biggest jump, at 25 percent, up to 72,688 items circulated in 1982. The South Branch in Bountiful circulated 14 per cent more items, at nearly 194,000, still far above North open. Branch, where 125,300 items were circulated. MS. LAYTON stresses those increases in service have come with virtually no staff increases although she said staff directly involved with the public, noting it would average 11,500 people per staffer. On an average day, the three libraries serve 0 patrons each while many days that exceeds l,500--it-s like a very large junior high school. ' The most patrons generally converge on the libraries after 750-80- school dismisses, around LN MOST areas, from Logan to Salt Lake City, libraries open at 9 or 10 a.m. weekdays. In Davis County, they open at 10 a.m. on Saturdays only. She called the percent crease a healthy growth even if we had all of the Layton not anycitizens back-thewhere near what we had before. Some residents havent applied for the $10 a family cards because the city doesnt she immediately reimburse, added. MEANWHILE, 479,000 items were loaned from the libraries and bookmobiles, excluding Layton, or nearly 10 items per registered borrower. Nearly 20,000 new cards were hours are relatively quiet, Ms. Layton added that fre- quently theres a group waiting when the libraries open weekdays at 12:30 p.m., adding, people come to the door quite often before hours loan has seen rapid growth, as well, Ms. Layton noted, thanks largely to computer hookup with a national system accessing 3,200 libraries.

On April 28 the Founders Day dinner will be held at the Valley View CounA op; AT PRESENT, drivers are allowed 200 points infractions under the state system, and could add another 50 if they complete a defensive driving course, before their license privileges are yanked. But insurance companies take a different tack, giving room for a first offense before taking ac- tion. That means on the second offense, theres a rate increase, surcharge or restric- tion placed on the driver. Do it a third time within three years and it usually means termination of the policy. If the young driver's covered with other family members, he may be required to look elsewhere for coverage. THE STATE set-u- p taught by school driver education creates no great urgency to be careful" for new drivers under 2 because they can generally have six or even seven 1 infractions before action's taken, Mr. Browning emphasizes. Under the proposed law that was to have seen action at the weekend, the state would send a w arning letter after the first infraction and call the driver in after the second, enforcing a probation period and discussing the situation. A third infraction within the three years would mean cancellation of probation and license suspension for 30 days. he emphasized, it would eliminate the current conflict that exists between what student drivers learn about how many driving infrac TO BE sure, young drivers have to deal with the real world and the insurance companies. Usually parents just take care of (placing the young driver) with the agent and driver education never tells what happens (with infractions). Noting strong support from the drivers license division, he said a similar law recently enacted in Colorado has faired favorably, and Repr. Browping says he envisions drivers becoming more careful and aware of their actions with that spreading through the driving population as the years pas A Only the first year might see increased problems for young drivers, he adds. REPR. Franklin Knowlton, noted the Legislature will have to deal with a $1.5 million governors request for funding flood control on Uah Lake and the Antelope Island causeway although he proposes no additional means to finance it and there was stall a $5 million gap between a balanced budget and needs at the weekend with no further decision on state retirement, he added, tb mothers and daughters tea is being planned for May.
