(2) A library serving $100,000{\sim}150,000$ population should be organized with a staff of 10 persons without actual departments. (3) A library serving $400,000{\sim}500,000$ population should be organized with a staff of 33 persons. $4{\sim}5$ sections and 2 branch libraries leveled with a section. (4) A library serving $900,000{\sim}1,000,000$ population should be organized with a staff of $62{\sim}66$ persons, an associate librarian, $4{\sim}5$ departments, $9{\sim}10$ sections and $4{\sim}5$ branch libraries leveled with a section. (5) A library serving $1,400,000{\sim}1,500,000$ population should be organized with a staff of 95 persons, an associate librarian, $5{\sim}6$ departments, $13{\sim}16$ sections, $6{\sim}8$ branch libraries leveled with a section and a full-time person taking charge of publicity.
