Excerpt from Annual Report of the Legislative Library and Provincial Archives, 1980
As it has been for over 100 years, the Legislative Library's main statutory obligation is the provision of information and research services to Members of the Legislative Assembly, to the personnel of government departments and agencies, and to special committees, commissions of inquiry and task forces appointed by the government from time to time. The Library's facilities are also used by the general public, particularly by the academic community, and by researchers, students, business, and local historians.
Service is given at two locations. The bulk of the Library's collections is housed in the Manitoba Archives Building, but a basic reference collection is kept in the Legislative Reading Room in the Legislative Building, where Members may also consult periodicals, government publications and newspapers. Materials and information pass back and forth between these two locations and other government areas by mail, courier, pneumatic tube and telephone.
In addition to the performance of these normal functions there have been other activities in the past year; 1980 has been a time of both assessment and of target-setting in all areas and departments of the Library. Basically, the main assessment has been one of space, although at the same time both the size of the collections and their worth have been re-evaluated as well. This new knowledge has helped staff to set goals and to better plan for future needs.
Space is of primary importance: in the near future the Manitoba Archives Building is scheduled to undergo alterations, with the Legislative Library and the Manitoba Archives expanding and supplanting the various agencies of government which have until recently occupied part of the building. When the building was renovated in 1975, it was anticipated that this enlargement would occur; the recent world-wide information explosion has brought with it an increased need for storage and shelf space in the Library, and the projected alterations are expected to meet these needs.
