Investment Made by the 10th
Earn From the Firit
FIRST FEDERAL
Savings & Loan Assn. of Medford
The Public Library of Med
ford and Jackson county will
request an increase of $18,475
in it.i city-county budget for
the fiscal year 1960-1961.
Omar Bacon, head libra
rian, said the increase would
be used to start improving the
branch libraries to the point
where they will adequately
meet the reading needs of
county residents.
Of the total requested budg
et of $87,764, the county will
be asked to give $46,264 and
the city of Medford $35,700.
The remainder will be made
up of anticipated book tee
revenues, which should in
crease from this year's $4,200
to $5,500 next year, Bacon
said.
The state has already com-
mittpri itsplf In rinnafp SSI) ndfl
during the coming year fori
the purchase of books fori
rural use, but this sum is not
counted in the budget, he
pointed out.
Present Fiscal Year
For the present fiscal year
the city gave $33,229 and the
county $31,860 to the total
budget of $69,289.
Bacon said that more will
be asked for the coming year
from the county than the city
because almost all of the budg
et increase will be used for
branch libraries.
The largest single budget
increase in the requested
budget is an additional $12,
539 for salaries, which would
make the total salary outlay
$57,482, Bacon said. 1
The majority of this salary
increase would go to librari
ans in the systems seven
branches so they would be
able to work more hours per
week. It is the library board's
hope that the branches will be
be able to slay open for longer
periods of time during the
coming year.
Minimum Hours
The board would like each
of the seven branches to stay
open a minimum of 20 hours
per week and those in Jack
sonville and Central Point, a
minimum of 30 hours per
week. All seven branches are
now open for an average of
from 5 to II hours each week.
Bacon said a recent increase
in use of nearly all of the
branch libraries warrants ex
panded services if they are to
meets the needs of their re
spective patrons.
The increase in salary out
lay would also be used to hire
one new employee who would
work at the main library, Ba
con said. This employee would
be a processing clerk who will
be needed to help facilitate
the movement of the increased
number of books which the
library has been acquiring
lately through both gifts and
purchases.
Employs 24 Persons
The library presently em
ploys s total of 24 persons, of
which four art students and
nine are part-time branch em
ployees. A smaller budget Increase
will be asked for travel ex
penses. This Increase would
raise the total allotment for
travel from $100 to $600. Ba
son said it would enable main
library employees to visit the
branches once a week instead
of once a month as is being
done at present.
More frequent visits have
become necessary. Bacon said,
because library patrons are
now permitted to return
books to any library in the 1
system, whereas until a few
months ago, they had to re
turn them to the same library
from which they were bor
rowed.
This change has meant that
library employees have had to
distribute books, pick up used
ones and take branch re
quests more often than before,
he said.
Increased Purchase
The library board also plans
to ask the city and county for
a $1,500 increase in funds to
be used for the purchase of
books bringing the total alot
ment for this purpose to $10,
000. The increase would mean
an estimated 3,600 new books
could be purchased during the
year, not counting the 7.500
books which will be pur
chased for branch libraries
with the $20,000 stale grant.
Bacon pointed out that
books, both new and old, do
not usually remain in one par
ticular library in the city
county system, but are con
stantly recirculated among all
the libraries so that patrons of
each will have the opportu
nity to read them.
The budget increase for
books would not come from
new monies, according to Ba
con, but would be a transfer
from an $1,800 budget item
which has been used to rent
books.
Abandon Rental Item
The library board plans to
abandon this rental item be
cause they have found that
most of the books rented are
eventually purchased by the
library in the long run, and
therefore they feel it would
be more economical to buy
them in the first place.
Another requested budget
increase will be $2,300 for
equipment. Bacon said the
funds would be used: to pur
chased two signs for the main
library so persons will be able
to recognize it easier; to pur
chase and Install a drive-in
book return on the parking
strip in front of the main
library and to purchase a
mimeograph machine, a cal
culator machine, two desks
and a typewriter, all for use
in the main library.
In addition to these Ihcy
.would purchase two large and
several smaller filing cabinets,
which, Bacon said, are needed
in several of the branch libraries.
Penalties for Tree
Damage Are Noted
With the advent of spring
weather, Chief of Police
Charles P. Champlin remind
ed Medford residents that
penalties for damaging trees
In the city can go as high as
50 days In jail and a $100
fine.
Champlin recalled that last
spring police received numer
ous reports of malicious des
truction to the downtown pot
ted trees planted by the Med
ford street tree committee.
Although there have been
few rases of damage to the
trees reported so far this year,
he said, the good weather
could bring an increase In this
vandalism.
He said there are two char
ges that can be brought
against someone caught dam
aging the trees. They are dis
orderly conduct and the mali
cious destruction of property.
