BOOiC di a a De�wer► One of the main problems in connection with the new Huron County Library Service 4, has been the supplying of books to the various libraries, in particu- lar, the larger libraries located id the towns, DIM Thomson, Clinton, chairman of the Coun- ty Library Board, told members of Huron County CoCuncil at their November Session, Mon- day. In order to alleviate this sit- uation, . special permission was given to permit these larger libraries to buy books directly, if they so desired, he said. "In' the meantime, however, a. purchase order system has been installed whereby each library, requisitions books re- quired aisd these are ordered' directly from the publisher by the County Library staff," the chairman said. "This system works well as long as the books are, available." He stated that at the last Board meeting, the County Lib- rarian pointed out that al- though the orders as requested by the local libraries had been submitted to the publishers, there were in excess of two doz- e,: back orders indicating either that the books wa0 out of stock or had not be ' ublished. Apparently, there are a num- ber of factors in determinifig how quickly books may be ob- tained and placed on the shel- ves of the local libraries. Effective January'l, 1968, sal- aries will be 'as follows: Mrs. C. Huffman, $4,500; i.(rs. G. Whal- ey, $3,000; Miss M. Pepper, $2,- 580; Mrs. J. Cruickshank, $2,- 880: Board chairman Thompson was enthusiastic concerning the {future of the County Library System, once the wrinkles had been ironed out. Remember!

At the board of director's meeting Tuesday Mr. Urqu- hart outlined the " proposal which suggested a 48 -man planning committee in each county. Four committee mein- bers would be ' chosere, "fro' n each of 12 groups according to the proposal. - Corporate members of in- dustries and commercial busi- nesses would . make up the first two areas 'of representa- tion. Members would also be sent from chambers of cain- merce, tourist councils, indust- rial ndustrial committees, existing plan- ning. 'boards, -.conservation or- ganizations, - agricultural or- ganizations, and' essential ser- vices (utilities). The final 12 committee mem- bers would represent .councils of townships, urban municipa- lities'and the county. ' Perth,. Huron and Welling- ton Counties ,would each have such a planning committee. Mr. Urquhart said. The, com- mittees would then submit their suggestions to the MODA board of directors to allow a regional planning effect. Ronald • Forrest, planning director of the Waterloo Coun- ty Area planning board, said before any such"planning com- mittees were formed it would be necessary to establish a ,liaison with the governing -bodies concerned.
