ATCHISON CLOSE Thunday, July 26, Plan 14-County Library Service Representatives from 37 libraries In Northeast Kansas Including Atchison, met In Lawrence on July 21 to develop plans (or cooperative library service throughout the county area. This assembly meeting or librarians and trustees from the northeast area climaxed 16 months ot previous meetings on library cooperation which began In February, 196S, At that time book and equipment grants were made to individual libraries in the area through funds from the State Library, A later grant in July of 1965 provided more books to participating libraries. In addition, the State Library contracted with the Lawrence Public Library to provide a one year pilot project of services and materials to six libraries in the area. Library consultant services and rotating book collections were provided by Lawrence to libraries in Effingham, Valley Falls, Baldwin, Oskaloosa, Meriden and Nortonvtlle, A similar but expanded program is now beginning for 31 participating libraries in the northeast area. Under the Library Systems Law passed in the state legislature in 1965, libraries arc encouraged to cooperate with each other to provide better services to all citizens in Kansas.

To help develop cooperative efforts, the State Library, with funds from the Federal Library Services and Construction Act, is providing a planning grant of $35,795 to the northeast area for a one-year program leading to a Northeast Kansas Library System. The grant will be handled through the Lawrence Public Library which will act as administrative library during the period. Under the proposed planning program participating libraries will receive: help from professional library consultants and in-service training through workshops to be held in Hiawatha, Oskaloosa and Ottawa. In addition, there will be book fund6 available to supplement local budgets as well as collections of rotating books on loan to each library in the program. Funds will be provided, to encourage each library to increase its use of inter-library loans via The Kansas Information Circuit, a teletype loan service operating out of six Kansas libraries.

A key aspect of the coming planning grant willbe the opportunity for librarians and trustees to meet frequently to determine the best form of library system for their particular needs. Each system is tailored to meet the needs of the specific persons it serves and hence the need for a period of planning between libraries. A library system is a voluntary assocation of autonomous libraries who are free to join or not to join such a system, A system has been referred to as a 'libraries library' in that it provides services to member libraries which each library could not afford to undertake. Some of the services available to member libraries in a system include: specialized consultant services to members, centralized cataloging and book processing, cooperative film circuits, central reference services, Interlibrary loan services and central purchasing of materials. Under central purchasing, each library would select the materials it needs and they would be ordered through a point at volume discounts.

Systems do not replace local library support. They supplement it. By means of local tax support and systems services, the local library becomes able to provide library services of both quantity and quality to all its patrons. Support for a library system comes from a one cent mill tax on areas within the system which are not currently being taxed to support a library. The system is governed by an assembly made up of representatives of participating libraries as well as persons living in areas without library services.

Designation of library systems is made by the State Library Commission. It Is anticipated that Northeast Kansas libraries will be-come a system by 196 B. At this time library services would become available to all persons within the system area from any library In the system. There are now 118,000 persons In Northeast Kansas who are now without library service. Under a system all persons would have service and the charging of nonresident fees would be dropped.

Such a move was not "we later learned that two of the cars, purchased from Mr. Andrews, who we thought was a reputable used car dealer, were stolen," Young said. "Andrews' charge that we knew they were stolen is ridiculous." Andrews said one of the fake registrations was made out to Hosea Williams, an aide to King. He testified he had met with Wiuiams once after police had picked up one of the stolen cars. He said Williams was an-gry and told him he was taking another stolen car to replace the one recovered by officers.
