David Farr, representing the Pickering Public Library
Board, spoke in support of the resolution to approve
an over-expenditure of $50,000 for the purchase of
books and materials. The average libary system spends
15\ of its funding on collection development, however,
the Pickering Public Libary Board only spends 9\. The
Board must purchase meterials such as periodicals for
special services such as children, businesses, etc.
They are getting complaints about not enough new books
or a poor reference section. Circulation has
increased dramatically while at the same time
Pickering has the lowest per capita dollar spent on
circulation of all similar sized municipalities.
