County-wide library system considered A county-wide library system is being studied by a subcommittee of the Lane County Advisory Library Committee before being presented to the full committee at 7:30 p.m. July 31, in the Lane Council of Government offices at 135 E. Sixth Avenue. The subcommittee of the advisory group will formulate the wording for the proposed ballot measure. The advisory committee will also be responsible for preparing factual data for voters to use in deciding whether or not to approve the county-wide system. If the wording of the measure is adopted by the full committee, the measure will be submitted to Lane County commissioners for final action. The proposed program would include such county-wide exchange programs as library service anywhere in the county, more emphasis on reaching outlying areas such as special services and assistance for libraries in small communities, a mobile unit to provide regular service and the establishment of two new libraries in “critical, but conveniently accessible areas.” Committee members have indicated they hope that the library measure can be placed on the May, 1974, primary election ballot.
