Some councillors were don.
cerned about libraries'incorpor.
ated into other buildings such as
a community centre. They were
told such premises would be
r entad by the county.
Said Duff Thompson, ,,The new
library system `should increase
the breadth of education at ail
levels. The board's idea of in.
suring at replacement value is to
make absolutely certain that the
service comes, first."
Thompson , also ,indicated that
National Film Board films may
become available through all
county libraries.
