Bostock, “‘since during

Officials:

TERRACE — Represen-

‘tatives of ‘regional and

municipal governments in
the Northwest will have
two opportunities to meet

with B.C. Premier Bill.

Vander Zalm in the next
week,
Vander Zalm will con-

-vene' a Premier’s con-

ference for members of
the Union of B.C.
Municipalities (UBCM)
the weekend of Jan. 24,
and he will also make a
one-day visit to Kitimat
Jan. 26 in fulfillment of a
promise he made during
the October, 1986 election
campaign. About 20
elected officials and ad-.

ministrators from -several ©
‘Northwest communities

met at the Inn of the West
recently to establish com-

“mon issues for discussion

with the Premier.
Attention was largely

focused on a report from -

C.S.J. McKelvey on
decentralization of
government filed Dec. 23,
1986. The report will be
the main item on the agen-
da at the Premier’s con-
ference.
Although agreement in
principle was indicated by
the group on some of the
points in the report, there
appeared to be.a consen-
sus that the report lacked
sufficient detail to justify
any concrete decisions.

Terrace Mayor Jack

Talstra, chairman for the
meeting, expressed disap-
pointment. ‘It seems like

- McKelvey. went around
‘and had.a cup of coffee
-- with each minister, and

then just threw this
together in one night.”
Ald. Bev Rodrigo from
Kitimat pointed out to the
group that the report may
have been intended simply
to stimulate discussion on
issues concerning the rela-
tionship of the province
and local -government.

-Ald. Doug Smith of Ter-
- race

suggested that
counterproposals could be
the. appropriate response

to some of the report’s

recommendations.

Some of the topics in

the report that generated
discussion at the meeting
included suggestions for

Law

books _

available
TERRACE — A special
feature of public libraries
in B.C. is their provision
of legal information for
non-lawyers.

In the past ten years,
B.C. public libraries have
developed legal informa-

tion resources which have
made law accessible at

some level to nearly every

citizen of the province.
This is a major change
from the early seventies
when there were very few
books even written for the
lay person. At the same
time, the Statutes of B.C.

_ were only publically a-

vailable in about seven
libraries, and they were
difficult to use with no in-
dex. But times have
changed. °

In 1975, in cooperation
with the Legal Services
Society of B.C., the' Ter-
race Public Library added
legal information to its
library services, At ‘that
time, the Legal Services
Society initiated a pro-
gram to assist public
libraries provide legal in-
formation, to train library.
staff, and to assist lib-
raries by providing infor-

mation not locally avail-

able.

At this time, the Terrace
Public Library has -the
new improved B.C.
Statutes which now in-
clude a comprehensive
subject index. In addition,
the library contains a wide
range of books and mat-

 efials written specifically .

for the lay person looking
for clear and accurate in-

formation about law and: -

legal procedures. These’
materials cover both per-
sonal and business related

subjects such as ‘senior

citizen benefits, living |
commonlaw, selling. your:
home, small claims court,

tax law and incorporation,

and business guides. _-
Resources such as these’

can be very useful for in- —
dividuals making personal.
_ decisions. But. they also.

provide information. for: .
Community organiza-"..
tions, the small-business’

person, municipal coun-
sellors,
others.

The legal and:informa-: .« -
tion sources available in -
the Terrace Public Library
- are one of .the services.
which make this library an
in-valuable resource.
