Correction An article in the March 10 is- sue of The Dallas Post improperly credited James Alexander Martin with acquiring the property for the former Kingston Township High School. : now the Westmoreland Elementary School. According to his daugh- ter, Charlotte Martin, James A. Martin served as supervising prin- cipal of the school after it was built. Later, as supervising prin- cipal of the new Dallas Area School District, he was responsible for acquiring the land that is the present-day school campus, and houses the high school, middle school, Dallas Elementary School and the Wycallis Elementary School, which will replace Westmoreland.

Library patrons will notice the differences as well. The comput- erized system will require them to surrender old library cards for a new version. The updated cards will provide book lovers unprec- edented access to area libraries. “That one card can be used here or at any public library in Luzerne County,” explained Martha But- ler, Library Director. Molly Radics has been volun- teering at the library for seven years. She thinks the new tech- nology will enable those who work there to be more efficient. “The changes will take some getting used to, but eventually I think it will make my job easier,” said Radics. “Molly doesn’t really need the help, she can shelve books in a jiffy,” said Children’s Librarian Marilyn Rudolph. As head of the bustling children’s department, Rudolph knows there is much work to be done before the library can fully utilize the new technology. She expects it will take several months to apply bar codes to the approxi- mately 10,000 books that need stickers. “The system should be up and running in July,” she said. When the computerized inven- tory does come online, a terminal will be made available to library patrons who can perform searches raccording to author, title, key- POST PHOTOS/CHARLOTTE BARTIZEK Mary Krehely and Fred Krohle took a break from the marathon recoding session. word or subject. These options will simplify the task of locating a book and make a visit to the li- brary easier for everyone. “The paper card catalog will become a thing of the past and searches will take less time,” Butler explained. Patrons will also have the op- portunity to search the database to locate a book which is not stocked at their own library. “In- dividuals will have access to the inventories of area libraries and will be able to reserve a copy of the desired book through inter-library loan,” said Butler. “We think these upgrades will help us better serve our community,” she said. Library employees and volun- teers are excited to be a part of these changes. “It is totally amaz- ing to see what is being done. More people should come into the library and enjoy what it has to offer,” said long- time volunteer Molly Radics. ke Candy & Cake X & Supplies 2 Candy Classes *15 (supplies included) Limited Space.
