The Managers Of the Cleveland Library
Association, desirous Of extending the beno-
fits of the Institution as widely as possible,
aud believing that large numbers of our citi-
zsns are not sufficiently informed Of the I'D
vantages to be derived from it, have deemed
it advisable 20 mako brief statement of
facts concerning it.
The Reading Room, on the ID floor, is
open, every week day, from A. ". to ten
P. N. and contains the Newspapers and most
Of the Magazines, Reviews, &c, hereinafter
mentioned.
The Library Room, on the Sd fl 1or, ia open
from 10 A. N. to u, from 2 P. n. tO5P. y.
and from P. II. to P. n. Here are over
1000 volumes, and many magazines, &e.
The Rooms are well lighted, and have
good ventilation, and are kept quiet and or
derly at all times, so as to afford comforts-
BILE and pleasant resort to either Ladies or
Gentlemen, to either procure books, or to sit
and read, without being disturbed By the
res ding or conversation Of others.
Membership for Life may be obtained by
the payment Of $50, or membership for oue
year for S3,-thus for sum go small as
would merely purchase one or two books, OF
would pay but for ono Magazine, OF for a
We KY pApeEy may % OOlAllou al lIb priv
ilegss Of the Association for one year, includ-
ing access to over Z, 900 volumes, comprisiug g
the standard works of Foreign and American
Literature and Science, valuable books Of
Reference, as we'll as tho best current publi-
cations Of the day, for light reading, &c the
reading of the principal daily Newspapers
from All parts Of the country; all the best
Magazines, Reviews and other periodicals of
this country and Europe.
The Managers scarcely consider il neces-
sary to press upon tho attention Of parents
the benefits that will accrue to their children
By being early imbusd with a tssts for read
ing and by the habit of resorLin0 to a well
selected library for TecIeaion and improve
ment, rather than to those questionable
places Of amusement with which every city
sbounds. To the merchants and Other bust
ness men of the city, and to all who have
means With the right use of which they may
benefit others, the Board confidently look for
q liberal support of such an institution, a
support not measured by the trifiug sum re-
auired for yearly membership, but to bo bo-
slowed with the Kbsrality with which such
associations have been endowed in most 9TH
or commercial cities.
The Board ilsls0 invite any persons who
arc not already members to call at the Lib
rary rooms and investigate for themselves as
to the benefits to be obtained.
Certificates of Membership may be OBJ
tanned of W. J. TAFT, Librarian, who will be
found in attendance during the hours desig-
mated for the Library Room.
