Report of Public Library Trustees


The Trustees of the Haydenville Library submit the following report :


The Library was repainted in the Spring, and some repairs were made, which not only put the building in better condition, but materially improved its appearance.


We received last Summer a gift of fifty or more books from Mrs. E. C. Miller which have been much appreciated by the users of the Library. In addition to these about fifty new books have been purchased.


The Library has been generously used during the past year. A larger use of the non-fiction part of the Library is recommended. There are, on the shelves, valuable books of history presented in a popular and read- able form.
