Stolen books are only a small part of the missing book problem at Watson Library, Robert Quinsey, assistant director of libraries said yesterday.
Library Book Snatching Minor
"To establish a theft is no small matter. It is difficult to say if a book is missing or stolen. A book may be unavailable for many reasons—loss, damage to the book, or by being mislaid." he said.
Since there are 830,000 to 849,-000 items categorized in the library it would be a serious mistake to come to the immediate conclusion of a theft, he explained.
A book found missing is replaced
Lost time was like a run in a stocking. It always got worse. Anne Morrow Lindberg.
within six months unless there is an immediate demand for it by students and faculty. In that case the book is replaced in a matter of a few days or weeks, he said.
Mr. Quinsey said that on rare occasions, when a book theft has been discovered or reported, the usual disciplinary action is taken.
He declined to give an estimate of the monetary value of books not returned because he felt that the problem was not a pertinent one.
"The entire library system is one which can operate only on the basis of good faith. We assume the faculty and students are conscious of this," Mr. Quinsey said.
Policies Vary on Absences
A little-known aspect of college life recently was brought to the surface by the Registrar's Office
There is no all-University policy regarding class attendance.
Also, there is no set policy on the reporting of absences by the faculty.
Schools may, however, establish regulations regarding class attendance. These regulations are announced to the faculty by the deans.
The Registrar does request that a report of absence be filed whenever a student has ceased to attend a class.
