- W287097323 abstract "You've got to get involved with gov ernment! Librarians have been told that for years. Recently we have heard intimations that we should get involved with COCs, or councils of government. Professor John Bollens of UCLA suggested it at the 1968 Con ference of the Graduate Library School, University of Chicago. Norman Beckman, of the Department of Hous ing and Urban Development, said it in Kansas City.

Credit for this ac tion goes to Kenneth Dowlin, who was at that time librarian of the Arvada Public Library. Mr. Dowlin recognized the need for planned development of public library services and realized that the Regional Planning Commis sion would, as he put it to the librar ians, give us a home from which to operate.
