COULDN'T WAIT: Thanks to a photographer's urging, these two youngsters couldn't wait until they got home before peeking inside a book just taken out at the Ann Arbor Public Library. Their mother shows them a few of the pictures. Special exhibits are set up at the library this week in connection with National Library Week. The library is open until 9 p.m. today.

AID TO SIGHT - H. Ashley Weeks, a retired professor of sociology in the School of Public Health at the University of Michigan, tries out a new video machine at the Ann Arbor Public Library which will aid partially-sighted individuals in their reading and writing. The machine, a Visualtek Miniviewer, was donated by the Friends of the Ann Arbor Public Library. The Miniviewer uses a television monitor, a camera and a powerful lens, and will enable people to read small print. Weeks is a member of the Friends of the Library and also has a sight problem. The machine may be used by asking at the reference desk on the library's second floor. (Staff photo by Jack Stubbs).
