Abstract:
The article is a critique of public libraries throughout the state and the failings of this system for those North Carolinians who are illiterate. As a member of the Governor's Commission on Library Resources, the author suggests that libraries should not just be repositories for books. The 1964 commission proposed several changes including developing a more cooperative funding scheme including local, state, and federal funds and forming a statewide Citizens Committee for Better Libraries to be represented in every county.
