1 men who request- ed material on marketing and commercial trends. as well as for the rural people who were inter- ested in farming. machinery and building. Books on Fine Arts and Music were particularly popul'n' during the year‘, especially by the members of moieties in this field of culture. ' ' Circulation statistics contained in the report were as follows:

1948 1949

Adult Fiction . 29.547 20.904 Adult Non-Fiction 13,319 14,141 Juvenile Fiction . 6,799 7.696 Juvenile Non-Fiction 2.198 1.008 “Reading trends reflect the

times." the report continues. “In 1949 people were vitally interested in current: affairs. Churchill's "Their Finest Hour”. Sherwoods "Roosevelt and Hopkins". Eisen- hower's “Crusade in Europe", and sch-weitzer's "Out of my Life and Thought" were much read.“

The books accessioned and cat- alogued during the year numbered 101 in the Legislative Library and 491 in the Public Library.

on the main floor of the library the boy’: and girl's corner give a reference as well as a circulating service to the children. In addition to books that meet their special reading needs, a fine collection of books was available to help them in their hobbies. Miss Gill states in her report that they are looking forward to having a. children's room. and trusts their hopes may soon be realized.

An index to the Prince Edward Island newspapers. started mally years ago. is being continued. The scrap book of local war material. taken from the local newspapers which was started at the beginninz of World War II is ‘now completed. This piece of work may not have any significant value at the pres- ent time, but it should be very important in years to come.

ln October. fluorescent lighting was installed in the mezzanine floor of the library. the report states. and in December new doors replaeed the old and original ones Important gifts of books and manuscripts were received. some of the material is very old and valu- able. and will be a nucleus for an Archives. several old maps of P. 11.1. were also received. one is a plan of Lot 14. dated 1809. and drawn by hand.

in closing her report, Miss (3111 refers to the plaque on the outer wall of the library. placed there on August 12th., 1949. in memory of the late Robert Harris. 0. M. G.. Canada's outstanding artist, whose pictures are hanging on the walls of the Har is Memorial Gallery on the second , ieor at the library.
