     Dear Editor, 
     
    

    
     I amr‘eplying to a let- 
     
     ter signed "Keener" in 
     
     which the writer makes 
     
     sane constructive sug— 
     
     gestions. to ameliorate 
     
     those problem associated 
     
     with Library hours. 
     
    
   
   
    
     The preemption that the 
     
     current Library tours 
     
    

    
     are budget driven is cor— 
     
     rect. ’ ThevUniversity 
     
     Library had reduced staff 
     
     by seven persons since 
     
     opening the new Library I 
     
     in 1975. The present " 
     
     complement of 24 can— 
     
     pares with St. Francis 
     
     Xavier's 29; Mount Al- 
     
     lison's 31; St. Mary's 35 
     
     l/2. 
     
    
   
   
    
     Despite cutbacks, the 
     
     Library has attempted to 
     
     provide the University 
     
     with a quality Library 
     
     service. Library hours 
     
     are extended for the last 
     
     several weeks of each 
     
     semester and the Library 
     
     is presently open 83.5 
     
     hours per week, in- 
     
     cluding Saturdays from 
     
    

    
     1 pm to 9 pn. Additional 
     
     hours are provided for 
     
     those weekends prior to 
     
     and during'ltheexan ’ ' 
     
     period. V 
     
     The suggestion that the 
     
     Library can simply let 
     
     the Circulation staff go 
     
     home and leave the Li- 
     
     brary open without 
     
     supervision or any con— 
     
     trol on the materials 
     
     leaving the Library would 
     
     not be acceptable. 
     
    
   
   
    
     We are presently explor— 
     
     ing alternatives to pro- 
     
     vide additional study 
     
     Space for students and 
     
     we hope that the matter 
     
     Can be resolved even 
     
     b(afore this letter is 
     
     printed. 
     
    
   
   
    
       
     
    
   
   
    
       
     
    
   
   
    
     I would be happy to have 
     
     representation fran the 
     
     students, possibly through 
     
     the Student Union, to see 
     
     if the Librarv can bet-

     nancial limitations.

     STUDENT AID: BANK'S (EN'T 
     
     AFFORD STUDENTS. 
     
    
   
   
    
     "The bank of Montreal 
     
     made over $100 million 
     
     profit last year but 
     
     can't afford to process 
     
     student loans here." 
     
    

    
     So read posters outside 
     
     the Universityof B.C. '5 
     
     Bank of Montreal branch 
     
     recently. 
     
    
   
   
    
     Last year the bank moved 
     
     its student loan pro- 
     
     cessing to a downtown lo— 
     
     cation, miles fran the 
     
     campus after branch 
     
     managers claimed it had 
     
     become "uneconcmical" to 
     
     handle  V 
     
     Student Union Building 
     
     -branch manager Stuart ' 
     
     Clark said the bank will 
     
     not process the loans 
     
     at UBC because last 
     
     year the student society 
     
     charged rent. He added 
     
     that he's unconcerned 
     
     about the posters and 
     
     W111 let them stay. 
     
     The only two banks on the 
     
     university campus are 
     
     Bank of Montreal branches 
     
     and neither handle 
     
     student loans.
