He referred to a report on On- :tario‘s library resources prepar- ied by Library Consultant Fran- cis R. St. John after a 13-month survey‘ across the province. This called for a shake-up in library service with centralized ica-tologuing, a group of regional ‘co-operative libraries and reg- ional reference centres linked by a tele-communications net- work.

LUNCHEON SPEAKER At the luncheon at Richmond Hill Golf and Country Club the guest speaker was Deane Kent. director of the Lake Erie Re- gional Library Co-operative and of ‘the London Public Library and Art Museum. He traced the development of his regional co- operative which came into being in September 1964. Its first policy decision was to encourage development of county public libraries.

He said the St. John report strongly favors county and re- giorial libraries but his branch has found that for various reas- ons some countries are not yet ready and will not be for some time for county libraries. so are thinking along other lines as‘ well. He stated emphasis will be placed on regional libraries with} the largest library in the region being designated the main refer- ence centre. N0 CHANGE IN GRANTS No changes are expected in provincial grants this year, exâ€", cept for larger town and cityi libraries. The increase in grants' to these libraries will help them; build up reference facilities} There will also be substantiall grants to regional and county| libraries, without reducing those[ to smaller boards. 1 ed and a fourth is being plan- ned. His region also feels they should develop a telex system for smaller libraries to get in- formation not available at the London Public Library which has been designated the regional library. from the bibliographi- cal division of the Toronto Pub- lic Library. or failing that from the National Library in Ottawa.

The invita- ‘tion sent out several weeks ago by the Public Libraries Branch ‘of the Ontario Department of Education contained one sen- :tence stating only those boards which attended the workshop would be eligible for a grant of approximately $300 to be used for the purchase of reference books. The registration of 95 interested library workers indi- cated that few of any of the 41 library boards in the Counties of Peel, York and Ontario (ex- cluding Metropolitan Toronto) failed to put in an appearance. COULD FORM COUNTY BOARD He mentioned that both Mark- ham and Vaughan Townships have formed library boards and are building libraries as their Centennial project. and that boards exist in Richmond Hill and Thornhill. He suggested the relatively small geographic area including Markham and Vaugh- an Townships. Markham Village, Thornhill and Richmond Hill. with a combined population of more than 60,000 people might form a central library board with the possibility of a book- mobile serving the rural parts.
