Dunninghain), the Library Committee reports that it is of the opinion that the proposals offer a unique opportunity for the librarian to acquire special training and valuable information in modern methods of library administration and service, and therefore recommends that the necessary leave be granted the librarian to enable him to take advantage of the Carnegie Corporation grant, on the understanding that Mr Dunninghain will not accept another position, excepting with the council’s consent, within a period of five years after his return to duty. If the council’ approves, it is further recommended that Mr E. H. M’Cormick, M.A. (Hons.), Dip.

" These payments will not involve the council in any additional expenditure beyond that allowed for in tho current salary vote for the library.
