Excerpt from Country-Borough of Plymouth, 1st-12th Report of the Free Library and News-Rooms Committee, 1876/77-1888/89: Together With the Librarian's Report and Statistical Tables, Financial Statement, List of Donations to the Library, &C The Committee of the plymouth free library respectfully present to the Town Council their First Report, with Financial Statement, made up to the end of the year 1877, together with the subjoined Librarian's Report, and sundry very interesting Statisti cal Tables, Which set forth the gratifying success that has attended the Institution, as shown by the large and increasing use made of it by the inhabitants. The accounts show that the sum of £984 2s. 11d. Has been expended in the purchase of books. Your Committee would have been glad if a much larger sum' had been at their disposal for the purpose, but this has been prevented in the past through the heavy necessary outlay for altering, fitting up and furnishing the premises. Your Committee acknowledge, with hearty thanks, the gifts of books, magazines and newspapers, from ladies and gentlemen, Whose names will be found at the end of this Report. Further similar gifts will be thankfully received, specially of such as would be suitable and valuable for the Reference Department. The steadily increasing numbers using the Library is beginning to press upon your Committee the need of more space. The News room is Often unduly crowded; and if it were possible to give us more room in the present building we could greatly extend the benefits which we confidently believe must result from the increased use of your Free Library.
