What It's Like To Be . . .
Love Library W orcer
Enjoy Meeting Peop

By Jan Itkin
Junior Staff Writer
Behind a desk on the second
floor of Love Library sits a
boy or girl who cheeks brief
cases and books to see t h a t
library books have been
checked out and keeps count
of the approximately 3,000 peo
ple who use the library daily.
Janice R o w e, who sits
behind the desk about four
hours a week, describes it as
"a relaxing and enjoyable job
where you get to know a lot
of people.
Miss Rowe is a senior
majoring in sociology who has
worked in the library for two
years. She said her duties in
clude looking for misplaced
books, checking books in, help
ing people find books they are
looking for and working the
control desk.
Control Desk
Working the control desk,
she explained, consists o f
counting the people who come
up the steps between first and
second floor, checking to see
that library books leaving the
library have been checked out
and sorting cards.
"It's a funny feeling the
first time you sit behind this
desk," she said, "to find out
that one of your instructors is
showing you his books. This
desk assumes a position of
authority."
There is nothing personal in
having one's books checked,
she stressed. "We check
everyone' s books even
library employees, and pro
fessors." Sometimes when books are
checked, Miss Rowe finds
either a thesis that is not to
be removed from the library
or unchecked books about to
leave the library.
"This does not mean the
thesis or book is being stolen
though," she s a i d. "It's
usually an over-sight and the
person either returns it or
checks it out."
"Whoever is at the control
desk usually f i e 1 d s a lot of
question s," she a d d e d,
"especially at the beginning

trol" desk at the library.
'con-
of the year when there are so
many freshmen who have
never used the library. Wre
can tell the freshmen because
they're so very scrupulous
about having their books
checked. Upperclassmen are
more bored by it."
Most people she has contact
with are "very nice," she
added, although some people
do resent having their books
checked.
People 'Interesting'
Miss Rowe said that working
the control desk is interesting
because she often can sit and
watch the people who use the
library. "After a while we
can even guess the majors of
some," she added.
The library differs from one
time of the day to another,
Miss Rowe pointed out. "For
instance, most of the activity
is in the morning when peonle
use the library as a stopping
place between classes," she
said. "In the afternoon, things
slow down and are more
peaceful, but there are still a
lot of people. And at night,
things are pretty quiet with
many of the same people here
every night."
The job can become monot
onous, she added, so one per
son works the desk about an
hour at a time. "There are
about 30 different people who
sit behind this desk at various
times during the week," she
said.
To pass the time, she ex
plained, the people at the desk
keep chain letters going. One
letter was written partially in
German and another was
written from the point of view
of a piece of paper lying on
the desk.
Occasionally something
amusing happens, Miss Rowe
said.
She cited instances of peo
ple who were entering the
library stopping to show her
j their books. "Can you imagine
someone proving they weren t
stealing books into the
library?" she laughed
