Broome, was de- signed to interest and entertain children in the county's villages and areas where there are no public libraries. Broome said: "It is based on {some ideas I picked up in Amer- ica." Since the library service possessed two vans, usually 1stored during the months, Broome thought could be put to good use in ing Nottingham's 86 remote vil lages well stocked with books and accompanied by a storyteller, SMALL REPERTORY brarian to try out the new plan, 4 said: "I felt like one of those In-* dian story-tellers must when they + travel from village to village."
