The following year Mrs. Buchanan attended th* Library School at Columbia University, where she has continued her study every summer for the past Mrs. Buehanan began her work by making an inventory of the books. She found that three thousand vol- d been lost from the shelves ight years. At that rate the book- tppearing faster than they were being brought in.

When you stroll through the library at Western Carolina Teachers' College, do you see merely racks el' magazines and newspapers and stacks of books? Do you take for granted the Opportunities available in the library? Then perhaps you do not know .the interesting story of its beginning, its Struggle for existence, its development. When the library was ft] lished in 1920, it occupied tht. room Qd of the hall on the second floor of Joyner Building. It consisted of a few hundred volumes, soiled and torn, which included two or three sets and some fiction. These had, for the most part, been donated. They were catalogued in a ledger and shelved on two old-fashioned, rather unsteady book cases, such as may still be found in some of the more out- ural schools. The room was furnished with long pine tables a few seats fastened together. wood stove in one corner p heat. Magazines and newspaper were distributed about the room which, sooner or later, found a per manent resting place on the floor, since there didn't seem to be any ace for them. There wer t the windows, and the d in glaring in the windows at the ^^^^^^^^~^ taking place in Cullowhee. However inadequate as it may seem now, this was the first step toward establishing the department which is the heart of the school. The following years, 1920-21, 1921- 22, the library carried on with very little change. About three hundred volumes of standardized fiction and about the same number of profession- el books and material necessary for a normal school were added. In 1922-23 the first real progress was made. The library was moved across the hall to the present reading room. An office was built in one corner of the room for cataloguing the books and providing shelves for unbound magazines, which were nov saved for the binder. Ten book-cases sixteen regulation tables, sixty-foui chairs, a card catalogue with guide trays, and charging desks were added as well as about eight hundred volumes of reference books, about twenty-five magazines, and a half dozen newspapers. This expansion necessitated the employment of a full-time librarian. Miss Eleanor Gladstone, a graduate of Carleton College, Northfield, Minnesota, where she served as librarian for fifteen years after graduation, accepted the position. "We feel grateful," wrote Miss Gladstone in the March, 1925 issue of the Cullowhee Yodel, "for every addition. Yet we still have some great needs, comprising chairs, adequate lights, and shades for the windows. Oh, for a philanthropist!" In 1929 five girls worked on the library staff. Because of Miss Gladstone's poor health, it became necessary to hire an assistant who could take full charge in the evenings. Mrs. C. C. Buchanan, at that time a student in the college, was appointed to this position. Mrs. Buchanan had had a great deal of experience in the library in Sylva and had a good general knowledge of library work. She was employed in the fall of 1929. That same year the library was confronted by its first real problem— the American Association of Teacher's Colleges demanded that the library be built to a 10,000 volume minimum. This demand presented to a two-fold question: How could th« college beg, borrow, or steal the three thousand lacking books; if it succeeded in getting them, where could they be put. A campaign for building the li brary to standard size was started April 10, 1929. Each student was asked to donate one book or the price of one book. In return, book plates were placed in the back of each book with the name of the donor, as a reminder to the future student body of his co-operation. Ninety-eight per cent of the students responded. Letters were also sent to former students of the college inviting them to contribute to the library fund. The response was instantaneous. The books came in so rapidly that it was necessary to use the adjoining room for the stacks. The office was then moved to the present stack room. In the summer of 1930 Miss Gladstone's eyesight failed, so that she resigned her position as librarian. In August, when the board met to replace her, only one person was sidered for the job. Mrs. Lillian Buchanan, who had so successfully served as assistant, was made head librarian. She accepted this placi Is Assistant Librarian alogue ' 11 be moved into the hall. room will include ent office, which will be moved to The Typing Room will he used for a Publisher's Collects Room.
