IN THE LIBRARY
The Library was a VERY busy place during the month of Oct.!
Our literacy program started up with a flurry of activity. Activity which
included carrying a huge and gigantic desk up our very narrow and steep
stairs• We do want to thank the two gentlemen who were here innocently
reading and =volunteered" to help. I hope they won't think we make our
patrons carry desks upstairs every time they come in:
We also received our new computers and program so that the High
School, Hinton Area and Talcott School can now dial in to the Library's
computer. This process involved being without a computer for a few days
while the new system was installed and served as a lesson as to just how
much we have come to depend on these amazing (and often frustrating)
machines. Our circulation here rises constantly - we have already circu-
lated 5,000 MORE items since July of this year than we did for the same
period last year. If the librarians had to do all the cataloging, filing and
counting by hand the way we used to wed probably have to be closed one
day a week just to keep up!
Now that the new sYstem is in place, students and teachers can use the
computer see if the Library has materials they want or need, and, if they
cannot get to the Library to get them,we will arrange to deliver them.
And last but perhaps mostimpoldmnt we had two very successful fund
raisers. The raffle in which Scott Bries won a $100 bill and the Library
gained more than $400 for ou r rather desperate =Inclf' fund and a most
"delicious and wonderful benefit dinner at Pence Springs which will proba-
bly give our favorite worm at least a $1,000 boost (we will know once we get
the bills)..We do very much thank Ashby Berkley and the staff at the Pence
Springs Hotel and all our wonderful Friends of the Library who worked so
hard on our benefit. In order to keep the wolf from the door and NOT to have •
to close the Library any more days per week we need to raise at least $4,000
each quarter and here we are'a third of the way through the second quarter
in our fiscal year and we have just made it past the first $4,000 mark! So
please keep us in mind ....

From Page 2
Education Has Its Price
the outcome has been and will con-
tinue to be poor results.
After all ofthese depressing facts,
I do offer a solution to our lucation
problem, a solution with three easy-
to-follow steps so that everyone can
understand and take action. First,
we must vote for the levy. Next, we
need to attend the Board of Educa-
tion meet£ngs and ask for an item-
ized list of all the levy money spent.
We should insist that the money be
used for educational materials, and
school repairs. We are to remember
that the Board members, who are
elected by the public, must answer
to the public. The population of
Summers County, if united and
motivated, has the power to force
the Board to spend the money appro-
priately. The last step ofthe solution
is to support and elect only those
people who serve the educational
needs of Summers County best.
Electing people who have interest in
the schools, such as parents of stu-
dents who are presently in school,
will result in better education ad-
ministration. They, for the most part,
are very interested in the affairs of
the school system, and would very
much like to see the quality of educe.
tion in Summers County improve•
What good would it do to have an
American musical artist in charge of
a vocational welding school in Tibet?
He would have no interest in or
understanding of what was happen-
ing at his institution. Chances are,
someone who has personal interest
in improving education will work
harder, and accomplish more, and
the school system will see a great
difference andimprovement. I under-
stand that many people are angry,
and they have a right to be angry
considering the fumbles and blun-
ders of the past few years of the
Board of Education. But, if some-
thing isn't done, if there is no sup-
port offered soon, if the school sys-
tem is punished utterly crushed
by tremendous and unfair opposi-
tion it may be too late to ever save
our schools, our children, or our
future.
Sincerely,
Joey Hartwell
