Photograph caption dated March 3, 1954 reads "One way to keep 'em quiet. Youngsters become absorbed in wide assortment of story and picture books and, lo! there's hardly a sound from them.

Every library has made provision for the youngsters' comfort and happiness while they are intent on learning, entertainment or just browsing among various books."; See images #00131235 through #00131242 for all photos in this series.
