The year 1967 is the first year of operation of Huron County Library as a unit and the Board has run. into various, problems which had not been anticipated originally.

With the opening of the new wing, the Huronview budget for operational purposes is expand ing, In addition to ' the new wing, there have been labour negotiations as the result of the formation of two unions.
