Excerpt from Modern Public Libraries and Their Methods
In 1845 an Act for encouraging the establishment of museums in large towns was passed. Although the Act made no provision for books, the town of Warrington in 1848 established a library of reference, free to the public on certain days and within certain hours, and a lending library, which could be used only by subscribing members.
