IN OAK BROOK
Library Open
Longer Hours
The Oak Brook library is now open, having
been in operation on a limited basis since its of-
ficial opening to public inspection two months
ago.
Until public demand makes a more compre-
hensive schedule necessary, the library will be
open 1 to 5 p.m. Saturdays all year, and 1 to 5
Wednesdays during June, July, and August, in the
village hall.
Except for some children's books and a few
technical volumes on library science, all of the
books have been donated by interested persons.
The collection now contains children's books, se-
rious works, as well as a number of detective
stories.
The entire project of establishing the library
has been carried out by volunteers with occas-
sional professional advice. The floor of the library
has been newly refinished, and draperies were
provided by the board of trustees.
Monetary gifts have made possible the pur-
chase of shelving, supplies, and other necessary
materials. Because of the need for further funds,
the library is asking residents to join the Oak
Brook Library assn. with an annual contribution
of $10. A charge of $1 is made for adult library
cards, and 50 cents for children's cards.
