Shelby County Public Library - Shelbyville, Indiana. Welcome to the VELMA WORTMAN MORRISTOWN BRANCH of the Shelby County Public Library. Our library is dedicated to Mrs. Velma Wortman who was the first high school librarian at Morristown. We are pleased to honor Mrs. Wortman.
Families with college students and students themselves will spend $136.95 on apparel, $117.98 on food items to stock their dorms and apartments, $66.70 on school supplies, $72.79 on shoes and $78.02 on personal care items.
The national average cost of books and supplies hovers around $1,100 per year (considered as two semesters), with that figure continuing to rise with inflation and the rising cost of college textbooks.
