EDUCATION: SUBSIDIES TO PUBLIC LIBRARIES (REPORT ON DISTRIBUTION OF). [In Continuation of E.-9, 1883.]

Presented to both Houses of the General Assembly by Command of His Excellency.

I.—Extract from New Zealand Gazette, 20th September, 1883. Education Department, Wellington, 20th September, 1883. Notice is hereby given that the sum of £6,000 has been voted by Parliament for distribution to public libraries. The distribution will take place on the 31st January, 1884, and no claim will be considered that shall not have been sent in in due form and received by the Secretary for Education, Wellington, before the 22nd January, 1884. Every public library maintained by rates will be entitled to share in the distribution according to its income from rates ; and every library maintained by subscriptions and voluntary contributions will be entitled to share according to its income from subscriptions and voluntary contributions: Provided in either case that the income for the year has not been less than £2; and that admission to the library, if within a borough, is open to the public free of charge. The income of each library may be stated either for the year ending the 31st December, 1883, or for the year ending with that day in the year 1883 on which the annual accounts of the library were made up. The distribution will not be in proportion to the several incomes of the libraries; but a nominal addition of £25 will be made to the amount of each income, and the vote of £6,000 will be divided in proportion to the amounts as thus augmented, but so as that no institution shall receive more than £50, and that no payment shall be made in respect of income derived from endowments or grants from Borough or County Councils, or of moneys received for building purposes and not simply for the library itself. Application to share in the distribution must be made in the form of a statutory declaration by the Chairman, or Secretary, or Treasurer of the institution on behalf of which it is mad-; and such declaration shall be in the following form: — Declaration. I [)»««], of [place of abode], [occupation], do solemnly and sincerely declare that lam Chairman [ Secretary, or Treasurer] of the [name of institution] ; that during the year ending the day of , 1883, the income of the aforesaid institution for the purposes of a library only was as follows: Prom rates levied by a local governing body under " The Public Libraries Act, 1869," pounds shillings and pence ; and from the subscriptions of members, pounds shillings and pence ; and ironr"voluntary contributions other than members' subscriptions, pounds shillings and pence; and that the attached statement is a true copy of the audited statement of the accounts of the institution for the year herein specified; and that by the rules of the institution admission to the reading-room is open to the public free of charge. And I make this solemn declaration conscientiously believing the same to be true, and by virtue of an Act of the General Assembly of New Zealand intituled "The Justices of the Peace Act, 1882." Signature: Ji 'S t 3 a* | Declared at , this day of , 188 , Q o S before me— [S'g'S . m c Justice of the Peace [or Solicitor, or Notary Public]. [Note. —The words relating to free admission may be struck out if the library is not in a borough. The words in brackets are not part of the form, but indicate the matter to be inserted or substituted.] Copies of the form of statutory declaration may be obtained on application to the Secretary for Education, Wellington; or to the Secretary of any Education Board, Thomas Dick.

II. —Distribution of the Public Lirraries Subsidies according to Education Districts.

[Note. —The whole of tho vote of £6,000 was apportioned in the first instance, but after a majority of the payments had been made it was ascertained that part of the amount returned as " donations " by a certain library was actually rent, and therefore inadmissible for the purposes of the distribution. The deduction made in this case represents tho difference between the vote and tho amount shown as having been distributed.]
