MIDDLE ATLANTIC COMMUNITY COLLEGE LIBRARIANS
A meeting of librarians from selected community colleges in the Middle Atlantic area was held on Dec. 9 at the Community College of Philadelphia. J. L. Gotlobe, librarian of Philadelphia’s year-old Community College, and Guy D. Chappell, assistant librarian, initiated the librarians meeting and served as co-hosts for the afternoon conference. The meeting enabled librarians of similar institutions from Pennsylvania, Maryland, and New Jersey to come together and discuss problems of mutual and individual concern and provided assistance to those community colleges just getting underway. Among the numerous topics discussed were preparation for accreditation, AV materials in the library, availability and use of published lists for assembling a basic community college collection. During the informal round table discussion the remarks of Mrs. Katherine Brubeck of Baltimore Junior College and James McCoy of Trenton Junior College were especially helpful.
Mr. Gotlobe closed the meeting, stating he hoped the groundwork laid at this brief conference would prompt future meetings to discuss the many other development phases of academic libraries and services which are unique to community colleges. ■■
