Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a fascinating glimpse into the inner workings of a public library in early 20th century England. Through the detailed annual reports of the librarian, William Choules, we are privy to the meticulous record keeping that characterized library management of the era. Choulesââ ⢠reports chronicle the library's growth and development, documenting the acquisition of new books, the repair and replacement of worn volumes, and the steady increase in circulation. We see the library as a vital community resource, serving a wide range of patrons from students and researchers to the general public who utilize the reading room and lending services. The reports also offer a snapshot of the social and intellectual life of Redruth, with mentions of local events, notable figures, and the types of books that were popular at the time. The author's meticulous record keeping allows us to understand the library's evolution as an institution and provides a window into the reading habits and interests of a community in the early 1900s.
