Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Public Library, Its Place in Our Educational System The thesis is herein maintained that the public library in Ontario is historically and logically a part of the educational system of the Province. The historical phase is full of interest and suggestion, not only to those immediately concerned, but to the library worker elsewhere. The experiments of three-quarters of a century have been given in considerable detail, that students of library administration might trace, step by step, the advance from the Niagara library of 1800 and the two early Mechanics´ Institutes of 1835 to the well organized public library system, of 1911. This accounts also for the inclusion of the appendices A and B (prepared largely by the author). Grateful acknowledgment is made to Professor A. H. Abbott, Professor F. Tracy, and Professor James Mavor, of the University of Toronto, for many suggestions, and to Mr. E. F. Stevens, Pratt Institute Library, Brooklyn, N.Y., and Mr. S. H. Ranck, The Public Library, Grand Rapids, Mich., for permission to use the valuable papers given as appendices C and D.
