In addition, the planners made a special feasibility study of bookmobile service. Recommendations were made concerning expansion of buildings and collections, especially non-print collections; additional funding and charges; enlarging the reference collections; increasing hours and staff; copying facilities; coordination of technical services with other libraries; circulation control and routines; and library board policies and documents. Tables are provided for (1) a comparison of Orillia's library services with those of other libraries, and (2) books, circulation, and expenditures 1965-70. (LS)
