This is a new venture for Bruce County Libraries. The library is entering into a co-op ar- rangement with the Ontario Library Ser- vice - Saugeen, to gain access to a larger number of tapes, to be used for programm- ing and made available to the public. The tapes are basically eductional and documentary for children and adults, with a smaller selection of entertainment tapes for children. The tapes must be ordered in advance and are available on a first come, first served basis, kr overnight loan.

Millions for education The Provincial government will in- crease operating grants to Ontario school boards by an additional $50.3 million, Education Minister Chris Ward announced today. Details of the grant calculations were mailed to school boards today. The increase will bring the total operating grants for boards to $3 billion, 891.7 million for 1988. Ward said that because of further pro- jected enrolment increases in Ontario Schools the government decided to in- crease the amount of the grants from the previously announced $3 billion, 841.4 million. The grants include $61.8 million as the first instalment of a three -year -phase-in of funding commitments made in the Throne Speech — $22.6 million for the four-month period from September to December of this year for the reduction of class sizes in grades 1 and 2; $13.4 million for the pur- chase of computer hardware and soft- ware; $16.8 million for textbooks; $6 million for learning materials and $3 million for the implementation of in- termediate science programs. The total also includes $193.6 million for the exten- sion of the separate school system. Ward said that the base operating grant of $3 billion, 636.3 million, combined with the $193.6 million for separate school ex- tension and the $61.8 million first instal- ment payment, represents an increase in grants of 7.2 per cent over last year's ad- justed allocation of $3 billion, 630.9 million.
