Duff Thompson, Clinton, chairman of the Board, stated that the Board had had repre­ sentation from Luclmow Li­ brary Board requesting contin­ ued service, and had discussed this matter With the Bruce Cpunty representatives. He felt that some satisfactory arrange­ ment could be worked out fol­ lowing the adoption of the new system by both Huron and Bruce Counties. Ultimate goal of all libraries, the chairman said, was integra­ tion on a national .basis. He ad­ mitted- that cost of distribution would increase, but was. of .the opinion that there would1 be a more even distribution of the cost among all municipalities. /—........................................
