Because Library expenditures have already been under tight control since the reces sion started (each loan, for example, costs less today than it did in 1982), it will be necessary for us to reorder our priori ties and make changes in the way we do some things. Ileavy use of the Library by the people of West Van makes the operation very labour-- intensive. Having already reduced hours of operation by 3% in 1984, we didnt want go further in that direction. L .ortunately, we were left with very few areas in which economies could be made, Thus, other than the materials budget. despite inflationary pressures, we are having to reduce book purchases by some 15%. This means that we won't be able to purchase quite so many of the more esoteric titles that you sometimes recommend, or which we ourselves feel should be represented in the Memorial Library. We won't be buying so many copies of popular best sellers, which will mean longer waiting lists.
