Heron said the University will need a new library in the next decade. He said Watson Library built in 1984, has had three additions and has pointed out that "it is not an ideally designed building."
"Statistically, it u.s. rather short of seating space." Heron said. "We should be able to seat 4,000 in the entire library system. We have seating for 2,500. This is somewhat bad, but there are too many times when this time (Watson) is terribly overcrowded."
Another problem the library has is a shortage of personnel.
"This year the work load is going to increase," Heron said, "and there will be fewer, rather than more, people working here." The library also has a briefing problem. There are currently about 250,000 books. Wilson which are only briefed and not fully catalogued. To the user of the card catalog, briefed books are not as useful.
Heron said the library needs more employees to speed up the briefing work.
"increasing doctrinal programs also mean greatly increased burdens on the library,"

The root of the libraries' troubles is the refusal of the Board of Regents and the state legislature to allot more money for books, library operation and extension of facilities.
In 1968, 69, the total expenditure of the Kansas University Libraries was $2,143,358. In 1969, the total expenditure was $2,191,192. Here she said that, "we would probably drop below $2,000,000."
Heron said the administration has been advocating a new system of budgeting, called formula budgeting, used widely by other institutions of higher education. He said that the library submitted a formulated budget two years ago, (1986-89) in which it requested $54 million. This budget was turned down by the Board of Governors; it never made it to the legislature.
The annual report for 1989-70 summarized the success of the formula budgeting technique for that year: "It went down in flames with the rest of the奥运, but some day when the weather improves it should fly better than the old manic carrot."
With a shortage of employees and operating funds, another economy instituted by the Bank of Canada has taken over.
"This is a problem this summer," Heron said. "People work during the week can't come on campus."
Heron said that the library would be closed on Friday evening during the coming school year, and that the library would be forced to curtail its hours of service a total of five to ten days each week, added the Kansas State schools were having the same problems.
The University of Kansas library system is not facing an immediate crisis. Libraries at KU will continue to operate. But they will be overcrowded, understaffed, and the quantity and quality of resource materials will continue to decrease in future years unless the university moves more financial aid from the Board of Regents and, ultimately, the state legislature.
Renee said the council has not yet begun to make very many specific proposals for consolidation or elimination of particular programs.
Kissinger Reveals Details of Trip
WASHINGTON (UPI) - Henry Kissinger's trip to China was so secret that even one of the two Secret Service agents who went with him didn't know the destination.
Kissinger revealed that and other details of his Peking trip during a chat Sunday aboard Air Force One as President Nixon and his jerry returns from California. Nixon called his cabin and congressional leaders of both countries to discuss his untimely China journey.
who has been active in civil rights and political campaigns for several years, had never discussed the ACLU post with Cardinal John Cody or church authorities.
Kissinger declined to discuss what type of aircraft was used on his clandestine trip, or even what route he traveled. But he said one of the two Secret Service agents with him was kept in the dark—until he spotted a Chinese airplane, presumably on the flight into China.
On arrival in Peking the Chinese kept their promise of strict secrecy, even to the point of whisking him away from the airport in a car and rear windows hidden by thick silk curtains.
The agent, Kissinger added, nearly dropped its teeth.
Once he began his 20 hours of talks with Premier Chou En-lai, he said, the Chinese leader proved to be better informed about some of Nixon's more recent statements than he was. He said Chou immediately started peppering him with intelligent questions about an off-the-cuff briefing Nixon held in newsman Kaiser City July 6.

and his father.
Kissinger said he has no illusions about an immediate friendship forming between Nixon and Chou; but he said there seems to be mutual respect already.
The following morning Chou sent him a copy of Nixon's remarks, in English, with his personal notations on the margin and a note reading "please return, our only copy."
Kissinger said he had to admit he had been traveling and was of out touch, save for press reports.
Althou no date for Nixon's visit has been announced, Kissinger said diplomatic negotiations were underway to make sure the groundwork will be well laid. White House officials said Nixon will probably go late this year or early in 1972.
Docking Fights AEC
TOPEKA (UIP)—Gov. Robert B. Docking Monday made a last ditch effort to halt the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) funding for the nuclear waste dump near Lyons.
"I do not believe the AEC has made every effort to determine the safety of the Lyons project. Many of our state's prominent scientists, knowledgeable in the technical complexities and potential dangers of storing radioactive wastes, have joined with me in asking that the AEC conduct further research on these matters. Lyons project before proceeding with site acquisition and construction." Docking said in the letter.
The governor's office released the text of a letter sent by the Kansas governor to all 100 members of the U.S. Senate. The Senate will consider the request today.
The governor said the AEC "for the most part has ignored our concerns" and gone with the plan.
Docking asked the Congress approve AEC funds for research on the project, but defer requests for funds to acquire land and prepare projects until all safety tests are completed.
The AEC wants to take over an abandoned salt mine near Lyons in central Kansas for the nuclear waste dump. Radioactive waste would be shipped out of the nation would be disposed at the facility.
Spencer Closed This Week
There has been a generator installed to keep the library at a cool temperature. It is not known how well the generator will provide the library until the cable is repaired.
Spencer library has been closed due to a 12,500 volt cable broken by a construction worker at the site of Wesco Hall Tuesday, July 13.
Spencer contains many old documents, manuscripts and rare books which might be destroyed if not kept in a controlled atmosphere. There are no lights in the library.
Most of the staff employed at Spencer Library have been transferred to Watson Law School.
The closing of the library has caused an inconvenience for approximately 40 students and 45 faculty members who are using the library this summer. Three of these have been provided with space near a window in the library to continue their studies. Two are doctoral candidates and the third is a faculty member.
The Casson Construction Co. said the cable would probably be repaired by the end of this week.
