"Ten minutes after the library closed one
night, a breathless young man showed up
saying that he had to find out what tadpoles
eat. It seems that his children had brought
some home and they were dying. Within
minutes the night reference librarian, Anne
Barager, had found a source that offered that
information," said Foster.
There is also a complete reference section,
including medical and scientific journals
and pamphlets along with literary references
and several atlases.
The Audio Visual (AV) department, which
is located next to the library, offers a wide
selection of services.
There is a darkroom for student use re­
quiring only that the person furnish paper
and chemicals.
Closed circuit TV sets are located through­
out the buildings and trailers.
"Pick up the phone on the TV set, push
the button, and it rings in the AV depart­
ment. Tell them what tape is needed and
what the location is, and the number on the
tape. There is a catalog in each carousal
listing the numbers for each tape," said
Bill Tour, AV technician.
There are also film loops, filmstrips,
slides, projectors, records, and record players
available.
Ira Heard, AV department chairman, Bill
Tuor, Technician, Scott Griffith, AV Aid and
Caroline Ritter, materials technician are
there to help select the tools needed.
The library and the AV room are open

Approximately 43 to 45 per cent of CCC
students are involved in occupational career
courses such as automotive, nursing and law
enforcement. This percentage also includes
students enrolled in evening and "hobby"
classes.
Over half CCCstudents range from those
experimenting in different fields of study and
those enrolled here as college transfer stu­
dents obtaining associate degrees.
Many students are taking advantage of
on-the-job training opportunities or are here
to obtain their high school equivalency di­
plomas.
According to Adams one of the reasons
for enrollment at CCC is for experimental
reasons.
"It gives students a chance to try things
they might not do at a four-year school,"
Adams said.
Basically, CCC is a center for students who
are undecided about their futures, he said.
Enrollment at CCC is on positive terms
this fall due to its inexpensiveness compared
to four-year colleges, the many courses offer­
ed, its locality and the recognition given
the school by high school administrators in
the area, Adams said.
