Tickets $1.®® On Sale at ROACH’S MUSIC STORE Y. M. C. A. UNIVERSITY Y. M. C. A. James G. McDermid Composer-Pianist PLANS RECEIVED BY LIBRARIAN 39 BY 48 FOOT “V” WILL TRIPLE BULIDING’S CAPACITY TABLE SPACE IS SMALL Space of 10 or 15 Feet Will , Separate New Structure From Old. Room Made for 150,000 Books. Plans by the state architect, W. C. Knighton, for the new addition to the library, have been received by M. H. Douglas, university librarian, who expects that the contract will be let by April 1, and that the extension may be occupied September 1. The new addition will hold more than three times the number of books in the library at the present time, according to Mr. Douglass. Forty-six thousand volumes are now packed on the shelves, while the new addition alone will easily accommo date from 140,000 to 150,000 vol umes. Steel racks, each holding from 20,000 to 30,000 volumes, will be installed in the new addition. The addition will be built on the west side of the library near the ce ment tennis court ,and will be 39 feet wide and 4 8 feet long. A dis tance of 10 or 15 feet will separate the two sections, and they will be connected by a passage. This will be done to promote lighting and ven tilating facilities, and) also for fire protection for the new addition, as it will contain all of the volumes ex cept reference books. Will Conserve Space. The addition will have a Bmall amount of table space, but it will be used mainly for the book stacks. There will be small tables, at which a person may run through a book rapidly. The windows may be placed as far out as possible and the sills used for book rests, for the purpose of conserving space. Mr. Douglass stated that lie had thought of this Iilan, and would ascertain if it would be practical. There is also a probability of an open-air reading room on the sixth floor, but this plan lias not had very much consideration. Mr. Douglass stated, however, that lie thought it would be very useful. Improvement Necessary. The present library will be used entirely for reference hooks and for studying. A few more tables will be placed where the bookcases are at present situated, so that the library will not bo crowded its it has been. lift ween 5,000 and 7,000 volumes are being added to the library each ear, making the improvement a necessity. When the new addition is finished, many of the stacks in the reading-room will be taken out, and only the periodicals and the gen eral reference books will be left. The ventilation of the reading-room will lit' improved, and the 'room will be cleaner and roomier. Mr. Douglass hopes in time to be able to UiO the classrooms. ANNOl XCKMKNT.
