Preface THE PRESENT SURVEY of N'Tth Carolina's library resources is a culmina- tion of the efforts of numerous persons. The principal guidelines for the study were laid down by the thirty-nine members of the Governor's Commission on Library Resources, representing all areas of the state. Members of the Commission took personal responsibility also for con- ducting the public opinion poll, in which a cross section of about 250 citizens expressed their Nlews on the existing state of public library service and offered suggestions for improvement. Full support and encouragement from beginning to end have come from the Chairman of the Commission, John V. Hunter III. Another group of citizens, 257 faculty members representing all the senior colleges of the state, cooperated in supplying critical analyses of the adequacy of library service in their institutions. Special appreciation should be expressed to the able, hard-working, and enthusiastic staff responsible for gathering the mass of data re- quired for the investigation. The list is as follows: Public LibrariesMrs. Dorothy Evans Shue, Librarian, Cumber- land County Public Library Hoyt Galvin, Director, Charlotte Public Library, served as con- sultant on public libraries School LibrariesJane B. Wilson, Director, Durham City School Libraries, assisted by Mrs. J. B. McArthur and Mrs. W. L. Griffin Junior College LibrariesMrs. Helen A.

Baker, Librarian, Chemstrand Re- search Center Library EducationRay L. Carpenter, Jr., Lecturer, School of Library Science, University of North Carolina :4 ,, STWATA1AMP iv PREFACE The aid, advice, and information suppliedby librarians in the state government were equally indispensable andare gratefully acknowl- edged. Major assistancewas received from the following individuals: Mrs. Elizabeth H. Hughey, Librarian, NorthCarolina State Library Elaine von Oesen, Librarian, Extension Service,North Carolina State Library Cora Paul Bomar, Supervisor, Library andInstructional Materials Services, State Department of PublicInstruction H. G. Jones, State Archivist, Department ofArchives and History Another group of collaborators madeimportant contributions to the success of the project: the hundredsof public, state, school, college, university, and special librarians whocompleted and returned the detailed questionnaires used for factgathering. Wise counsel in planning andcarrying through thesurvey was re- ceived from Dr. Louis Round Wilson,Director Emeritus of the Uni- versity of North Carolina Library andLibrary School, whose pioneer- ing activities in North Carolinalibrary development began early in the present century. The difficult task of preparing thesurvey report for reproduction was most capably managed by Mrs. Clarabelle Gunning, ofthe University of Illinois Library staff. ROBERT B.

The survey has been undertaken by an able staff, including many volunteers, under the direction of Dr. Robert B. Downs, Dean of Library Administration at the University of Illinois, and former librar- ian of the University of North Carolina. The survey is attached hereto, and the Commission commends Dr. Downs and his associates on pro- ducing a comprehensive, balanced, and understandable report under severe handicaps, especially as regards the availability of time. In this foreword, the Commission will attempt to comply with the other mandates given to it by the Governor: to measure existing library resources in the state against present and future needs; and to present recommendations designed to meet the state's growing and changing library needs. In measuring the Commission's findings against present needs, one fact becomes obvious: North Carolina libraries just do not have enough room, enough books, or enough librarians. As for the future, the rapidly increasing enrollment in public schools and colleges, plus the impact of the great economic and social changes taking place throughout the state, can only mean a greater demand for information and knowledge. Such a demand will call for more library space, more books, and more librarians. If our library resources as a whole are substandard in 1964, despite outstanding efforts of our state and local governments in recent years to improve conditions, what hope can there be for raising the stan- dards in the midst of the constantly increasing demands the future is 1 ;w.f. wvir..k.51-7yragza-M.W.V.N.-2 2 RESOURCES OF NORTH CAROLINA LIBRARIES sure to bring?

  • And Academic Libraries
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Illinois Digital Environment for Access to Learning and Scholarship Repository PAUL H. MOSHER Friends Groups and Academic Libraries 1 he first university library friends group was founded at Harvard in 1925, in order to provide "the most effective aid" for that library. In all probability, the organization was established to stimulate the flagging enthusiasm of donors, whose benefactions had begun to decline; and it was probably modeled on the first library support organization to call itself a friends group, La Societe des Amis de la Bibliotheque Nationale et des Grandes Biblio- theques de France, which had been founded in 1913, and with which Harvard's library director, Archibald Coolidge, had become familiar during 1 a tour and book-buying expedition to Europe. By 1930 there were emulative friends groups at Columbia, Yale, Prince- ton, and Johns Hopkins, and the number grew substantially during the next four decades. While the process of growth has been substantial, it has undergone fluctuations; there has been a fairly high mortality rate among friends groups. The number swells during periods of poor library funding or and it declines times of for there rapidly rising costs, during plenty ; example, 2 were few new groups between 1954 and 1970, but significant multiplication of them occurred during the decades immediately preceding and following that period. There has also been a tidal ebb and flow as groups have lost direction or membership, or as major projects have been completed. Suc- cessive editions of the ALA Friends of the Library Committee publications show that of thirty-five groups listed in 1937, twenty-four were not listed in 1951; and of eighty-eight listed in 1941, fifty-nine groups were not men- 3 tioned in 1951, and fifty were missing in 1955.

  • Contribution of the Not for Profit Sector Study
    Australian Government Productivity Commission CONTRIBUTION OF THE NOT FOR PROFIT SECTOR STUDY A submission by Friends of Libraries Australia Friends of Libraries Australia (FOLA) was established in 1994 to foster the development of Friends of Libraries groups in Australia. Those Friends groups are increasing in numbers and influence, as the supporters of their local libraries, and voice of their communities about them. With its vision of ‘better, more accessible, libraries for all in Australia’ FOLA is a lay voice of the 60% of Australians of all ages who use and highly value the Australian free not for profit public library sector, with its 1550 access points. Those libraries uniquely serve the whole population, from ‘cradle to grave’, and are facing increasing demands at both ends of that demographic range, particularly from the baby boomers and other older adults. On behalf of those libraries and their users, FOLA therefore welcomes the opportunity to contribute to the study. Its submission provides the context for the Australian public library sector and, consistent with the study’s stated focus, a commentary on the measurement of the public library sector’s contribution to Australia. obstacles to maximizing the public library sector’s contribution to the nation. Context Australia is a longstanding and well regarded member of UNESCO. The UNESCO Public Library Manifesto1 states The public library, the local gateway to knowledge, provides a basic condition for lifelong learning, independent decision making and cultural development of the individual and social groups. This Manifesto proclaims UNESCO’s belief in the public library as a living force for education, culture and information, and as an essential agent for the fostering of peace and spiritual welfare through the minds of men and women.

  • Community Development and Rural Public Libraries in Malaysia and Australia
    COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AND RURAL PUBLIC LIBRARIES IN MALAYSIA AND AUSTRALIA Roziya Abu Victoria University, Melbourne Australia 2014 COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AND RURAL PUBLIC LIBRARIES IN MALAYSIA AND AUSTRALIA Submitted by Roziya Abu School of Social Sciences and Psychology Faculty of Arts, Education and Human Development Victoria University, Melbourne, Australia in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILISOPHY November 2014 Victoria University, Melbourne Australia ii ABSTRACT In Malaysia, the government has invested in public libraries with the intention of promoting development, particularly in rural areas. Despite the increasing number of rural public libraries being built throughout Malaysia, providing users with many services, activities and programs, previous research indicates that they are underutilised. The research reported in this thesis aimed to explore relationships between rural public libraries and their communities in both Malaysia and Australia, with particular attention to empowerment and community development processes. This study adopted a multiple case study methodology with a purposive sample of six rural public libraries, three in Malaysia and three in Australia. Qualitative methods were used, including personal interviews, observations of group meetings, group discussions, and document review. The research found that in the Malaysian rural public library services included in this study, activities and programs are standardised and limited mostly to children, taking little account of local community information needs. Participants indicated that the materials and resources are frequently out-dated, and they perceived the library services as being mainly for children. The Australian rural public libraries included in this study facilitate greater community participation and involvement and are more responsive to the needs of local communities, providing support and assistance for lifelong learning and access to information literacy.
