libe Seating Capacity Adequate For Civilians Although two of its four large reading rooms will be avail able for military use only, the University library will continue to seat about the same percentage of civilian students as in past years, Willis C. Warren, acting librarian, said Tuesday. The sharp drop in civilian enrollment this year will balance the decrease in library facilities, Mr. Warren explained, so that non-military students will find themselves no more crowded than belore the new program Vent into effect. Formerly the li brary has been able to seat ap proximately 20 per cent of the .student body at one time. Still unoccupied by pre-meteor ology, engineering, and foreign language groups are first floor reserve and reference reading rooms, in addition to smaller study and class rooms on other floors. The browsing room also remains, “for everyone interest ed,” Mr. Warren stated. * Hours for circulation and ref erence rooms will be from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. Monday through Fri day, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturdays, and on Sundays from 2 to 10 p.m., with the first floor reserve open from 8:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. Mon day through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturdays and 2-10 Sun day evenings. Open shelf reserves will be closed during the noon hours and from 6-7 in the eve nings. Sunday browsing room con certs, popular last year, are scheduled to begin within the next few weeks under the direc tion of Bernice Rise, Ella Car rick, and True Morris of the li »-ry staff in cooperation with Everett Harpham, repre senting Phi Beta associates.
