Hintz, Librarian. The addition, which has been under construction since March, 1949, cost $750,000, including furni ture and equipment. It will in crease floor space by about 80 per cent, and raise the immediate seating capacity to approximate ly 1,300. When the annex opens, library service will be reorganized on a subject divisional basis, and prac tically all materials will be made available to students on the open shelf principle. The four major public service units comprise the humanities division, the science division, the social science divi sion, and the general reference and documents division. Books in East Wing yieserve books will still be found in the east wing, first floor of the main building. Current issues of periodicals and reference books will be separately shelved in the divisional area. With the shift to open shelves, students will be expected to find their own books. Books need not be checked out if they are to be used in the stocks or the division al reading areas. If the student wishes to take books home or to use them elsewhere in the library they must be checked out at the circulation desk in the main build ing. The audio-visual department will be located in greatly expand ed quarters in the basement of the annex. Special features of this area include the Douglass Room, with earphone turntables for re cord listening, individual listening booths, and two studios which may be used for projection or record ing purposes. Special Facilities The room which was formerly the Browsing Room has now been set aside as a general reading and study room. It also contains the latest issues of newspapers. Various areas of the Library contain special facilities, such as seminar rooms, where advanced and graduate classes may meet; study rooms for faculty members, conference and typing rooms; and individual carrells for graduate students. “The University Library is tak ing a rather unusual step," Hintz said, “in opening its shelves to the student body at large, as very few university libraries have con sidered it feasible to do so be cause of the operational difficul ties involved. “The advantages of ready ac cess to books as a part of the edu cational process cannot be denied, however. Complete cooperation on the part of students will contri bute materially to the success of the 'new plan’,” he concluded. Crismon, Anita Frost, Ron Sy mons, Herb Nil], and Chairman Jim Fenimore.

Dessert Schedule The council went on record as recommending the plan presented, by a special committee to equalizo the distribution of desserts be tween dormitories and Greek or ganizations.
