The report of the meeting of December 28 was read and approved, as was the report of the Circulation Committee, recommending the purchase of 31 new titles and the acceptance of 5 gifts. Mr. Delaney reported, for the Administration Committee, that the leaks at the Main Library were caused by defects in the brick wall and around a skylight, not by trouble in the new roof itself. Also that the leaks at the Farms Branch have been caused by water seeping through the terra cotta trimming, not through the roof itself. Voted: to adjourn Adjourned Marjorie H. Stanton Secretary
