Pat Gazin Reports
(Report of the quarterly meeting of Region III of the Los Angeles County Library Advisory Commission)
There are now more than three MILLION volumes in the Los Angeles County library system of which we are a part. On every subject under the stars. Each and every one of these books is available to you. All you have to do is ask.
Hermosa Beach Library is almost unique in the system for its freedom from vandalism (there are now 94 libraries in the system). Other branches have suffered increasingly from vandalism and stealing. Hermosa Beach has not had an instance of vandalism in more than two years.

Hermosa Beach Library circulation increases each month. More MEN are using libraries all over Region III, according to Miss Lee Addison, regional librarian. She attributes this to widespread unemployment, tight money and disappointment in TV programs.
Parents and teachers, WATCH FOR, in July, a special bicentennial reading list from the Children's Services Department. To guide your youngsters' reading and appreciation of our nation's history.
