Excerpt from Notes by the Way on Free Libraries and Books With a Plea for the Establishment of Rate-Supported Libraries in the Province of Ontario
Tellier says: Much of our education, even our best education, is got out of school.
Then how are we to attain this desirable end 3 for people cannot always be going to school? It follows that, in order to make up in some degree for that which has been either neglected or but partially performed, and to keep pace with the progress and requirements of civilization, communities should, during their leisure hours, resort considerably to books, and where books cannot be individually pro cured, then I hold that they should be obtained bv combined action. As supplements to ordinary education, as means for supplying to the masses what defective training or limited resources of money may have deprived them of, and as counter attractions to the many ener vating allurements which have crept into modern life, I look upon free libraries as the best possible agencies and material aids which can be devised.
