Photograph was edited for publication purposes Photograph caption dated November 22, 1961 reads, "Regional libraries in the Los Angeles Public Library system offer many special services to their patrons. Among them is an extensive library which provides films free of charge. However, regional libraries, although more resourceful than the smaller branch libraries, are not intended to serve as research centers. Here, Mrs. Julie Lundy (right), head librarian at the North Hollywood Regional Library, checks out a reel of film to Madeline Thomas."
