Reading Rooms Cut Holiday Book Loans

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Although Widener Library's circulation desk will continue its two-week checkout system during the Christmas holidays, the Boylston, Union, and Widener reading rooms will not permit students to take books home over the vacation.

Division of the book stock last year to permit some reading room volumes to be taken out over vacation ended unsuccessfully, as there was an acute shortage of tomes for commuters, married students remaining on the campus, and undergraduates returning early to prepare for general examinations.

While the libraries will only lend books out overnight this year, librarians will not strictly insist on the 10 o'clock in the evening to 9 in the morning deadline.
