Summary "Report of the National Library Service for the Year Ended 31 March 1958" is a governmental publication detailing the operations and activities of the National Library Service in New Zealand. Written during the mid-20th century, this report provides insights into the functions, expenditures, and services provided by the library system, emphasizing the growing need for access to literature and information in a post-war society. The likely topic of the book revolves around library services and information access within New Zealand, focusing on both public and school library systems. The report is structured to showcase various aspects of the National Library Service's functions, including the Country Library Service, School Library Service, and initiatives for professional training through the Library School. It discusses the growth of library stock, user services such as inter-library loans, and the increasing collaboration among local authorities for improved library efficiency. Key highlights include the expansion of book loan services to rural areas, efforts to standardize library services, and the introduction of a national library proposal to enhance accessibility for all New Zealanders.
