'This suggestion has considerabl merit. At one time the
Library had a set of small 1ig4s clamped to clip boards
for this purpose. This was ditcontinued only because the
lamps were carried away. In/the absence of complaints., no
attempt was made to replace/them.
"Since this suggestion my4r represent, a wider but unexpressed
need, the Library will,experiment with spot lighting for note
taking in the micron.* reading room.
'Although it would 1every difficult to establish a, monetary
saving, there willralmost certainly be an improvement of
service as a result of this suggestion."

MEMORANDUM FOR: Sugseation Awards Commitl.,ee
. SUBJECT File for Seggestioe Auazels Program
I. INTRODUCTION:
At the last Committee Meeting, 6 March 1958? the Chairman .directed
the Suggestion Awards. Stuff to outliat a revised film, discuss procedures,
time and coat 0TRAA8, and report to the Committee at the next
meeting.
2. PIM=
a. A narrated motion picture, in color, of about 20 minutes
duration can be made by OTR/AAS, probably during the month of July.
(The film production group takes vacation during Augnet). Suggestion
Awards Staff would be charged $400-$500, which covers film cost only;
OTB would absorb labor and equipment costs. Cost for black and white
production would be $2004300.
b. The OTB/AAS scrip writer is on exteaded leave through- Septebber
and has.several projects to resume upon his return. Consequently, so
that the film may be completed soonest it will be necessery for the
Suggestion Awardo Staff to develop the ideas and write the scrip. The
Executive Secretary will briefly describe the outline at the meeting,
c. An alternate possibility would be a motion picture of 140 minutes
duration with actors, dialogue, etc., requiring about three mouthy and
ccoting approximetely $100000?--20 times the cost of a narrated motion
picture. OTR/AAS estimates they could not start such. a production
until late Spring, 3959 because of 4 priority film and 12 others ahead
of our request.
CONCLUSIONS:
a. The preeent Civil Service film is not suitable for showing on
a regular basis throughout the Agency. With some deletions it might
bring favorable reactions in certain r'ield type installations.
b. Considering our immediate publicity objectivee, costs, and the
work schedule of OTB/AAS personnel, a 15-20 minute narrated color motion
picture is the moat practical type of presentation.
4 FECOMMENDATIOE:
That the 6616,gestion Awards Staff be directed to proceed with
the Office of Treining for the production of a narrated color motion
picture during the month of July 1958.
