The moving of children's literature books to Rowe #all from
ihe main library has distressed
eight members of the English
department and affects approximately 1000 students.     •
The books were moved-this
summer because the first floor of
the main Library, where the
children's literature books were
housed, is being remodeled to
include a self-instruction center.
John Weatherford, director of
libraries,said, «I called somebody in the English department
this summer and informed them-
of the move. It had to be a
quick decision because the material arrived for the self-
instructions center and the books
bad to be moved."
The books are now kept temporarily in Rowe Hall until the
new Instructional Materials Center is finished in that building
next semester. There is no
librarian there at fee present
time.
One of the major complaints
students and faculty have about
the books being in Rowe is the
distance between the two buildings and the limited number of
hours Rowe is open. Many students have night classes but can't
go to Rowe to do research because it is closed. And, if they
are on campus in the main library, but .need children's literature books,, students must
walk over to Rowe,
A meeting was held Tuesday
afternoon between the eight men-
bers of the English department,
Weatherford and John Bergeson,
associate professor of education
and director of the Instructional
Materials.Center (IMC).
,Ha&eI Emery,- 'assistant"professor of English, stated, "The
children's literature books
belong in the main Library. Professional journals and bibliographies, which make up half of my
courses, are in the main Library
and the children's literature
- books are in Rowe.
"Plans in Rowe are simply
wonderful (the IMC) but it must
not include our books. It is too
hard to work between the main
library and Rowe Hall."
Christa Kamenetsky, assistant
professor of English, told Weatherford she is writing the syllabus for a new English class

next semester. In that new
bibliography, 30 per cent of the
books are in children's literature in Rowe. Hall and the rest
... of the book^s are .in the m$in ,*
^Libtary; This would be very
inconvenient for students.
"I have had many complaints,'
from  my students saying theyi
have    to   run   two   places for
books," argued Mrs. Kamenetsky.
Weatherford told the group, "I
wish you would give us a chance.
There was no disrespect intended
in moving fee children's literature books over here to Rowe.
We were not only thinking of
mis year but five years from
now. In less than four years the -
shelf space in the main Library
will be used up."
By moving the books to Rowe,

said Weatherford, the IMC should
ideally represent what a school
library should include and future
administrators of schools should
see a model library before they-
graduate from Central.
In closing, Weatherford asked
the group if there was anything
else he could do for them.
An English professor said,
"Yes, move us back to the main
Library."
