Research aid is provided The Huron County Public Library wishes to inform its patrons that a new service is nowavailableat the Goderich Branch Library that will be of special interest to historical and genealogical researchers. The Huron County Libra Board has purchased a 3m'- 500 LM Microfilm Reader/Printer which will allow patrons to make ex- cellent quality copies of materials on microfilm for only 25e per copy. A resear- cher using the early editions of a local newspaper on microfilm, for example, can now make copies of the pages he desires instead of tedious- ly writing down the informa- tion they contain. As well,ras making the microfilm collection at the Goderich 'Branch Library more convenient to use, this new service will be of great benefit to those borrowing microfilmed materials through interlibrary loan. The passenger lists of ships bring- ing new emigrants to Canada and early editions of newspapers outside Huron County are only two examples of the interesting historical records available to resear- chers on microfilm through interlibrary loan. Since items borrowed through interlibrary loan are only on loan for a relatively short time, the usefulness of being able to make copies is even more apparent. We are sure that this new addition to the library will be most welcome one to those using microfilmed materials. t Mrs. Sheila McGillivray of Trenton spent the weekend with her mother, Mrs. Ralph Bailey, of Andrew St Exeter. • } ODDFELLOWS FRIENDSHIP NIGHT — Exeter Noble Grand Norm Whiting, Deb- bie Josephson, the student sponsored to the 1982-83 UN pilgrimage and Audrey Rowe, Noble Grand of Exeter Rebekahs, posed before the Friendship Night din- ner and dance hosted by the Exeter Oddfellows.
