The Huron County Library
is no exception. For more
than a month now, the
library has been using a
computer terminal to order
books and search for
requested books. The ter-
minal is on loan from 'the
Midwestern Regional
Library System and will be
sent to Bruce County Library
next. •
Head librarian William
Partridge will then put in a
request to the Huron County
Library Board that a $1400
terminal be purchased for
permanent use. The staff at
the library has found that the
terminal has streamlined
their work; saves steps and
makes things much more
efficient. It can handle one
book inquiry per minute and
three book orders per
• minute. •
The Huron County
Library, which moved into
its new quarters on Waterloo
Street last March, has a staff
of one part-time and five full -
fine employees besides Mr.
Partridge. When taking all
the branches into con-
