Borrowers from every ward excepting College
Park have taken tickets at the Central Library, but
the large number from the adjacent wards of Brook
Green, the Grove, St. Paul's and St. Matthew's is
ample testimony that a Library in this part of the
Borough was necessary.
The usual tables accompany this report, from
which full particulars of the work of the various departments
may be obtained.
I am, Gentlemen,
Your obedient servant,
S. MARTIN,
April 23rd, 1907. Chief Librarian.
