SHOULD WELLAND HAVE A CARNEGIE LIBRARY?
[Welland Telegraph, 21 September 1909]
A large number of urban municipalities in Canada have availed themselves of the Carnegie Library fund. Out of the fund handsome public buildings have been erected and excellent libraries maintained.
Alderman John Goodwin makes the suggestion that the Town of Welland ought to take advantage of the liberality of the Master of Skibo, and indeed, why not?
The present accommodation at the Town Hall in not too ample and will shortly be required for a department of the municipality. The day will surely come when the town will have to provide a site and building for a library. Why not provide the site and have Mr. Carnegie supply the building?
The matter is one worthy of the attention of the Library Board and should receive from them their endorsation.
