RULES ARE BROKEN AT THE LIBRARY
STUDENTS SECRET BOOKS FOR PRIVATE USE.
student Council Will Be Asked to Take Action After an Investigation.
There is still some complaint at the library building, concerning the infraction of many of the Library rules and regulations. Students continue to spirit away books without permission, which they use at their leisure, and often forget to return. The greater number of volumes thus taken are those needed and used as references in lecture courses and their monopoly by a few students is not only forbidden by the authorities of the library, as a precaution against their loss, but decidedly inconveniences those who are unable to procure them in time to prepare their reference work.
Certain persons, more cautious than others, content themselves with secreting desired books back in the stacks, where they will not be found by other readers. This method seems to be more prevalent than that of carrying the books out of the building, as it is fully as satisfactory, and certainly more safe.
Investigations are being made by the proper authorities, and when sufficient evidence is procured, the matter will be turned over to the Student Council.
