the city.
The trustees have hoped that New-York and other
cities woulo In time build Libraries with apartments
in the basemen; for children under twelve years OF
age In the summer OF 1857 the founder of the
Chdren's Library Association visited the city OF
Minneapolis. She requested to give short
account of the work in of the churches. This
was done. and afterward circulars relating to the
work distributed. She afterward received
many letters from Western cities also from across
the ocean. asking for information in relation to the
plan. a little more than year ago. in visiting
the city OF Minneapolis. the library building
vas inspected and the writer was rejoiced to find
that the basement had been opened for the chill
dren. An article in "Harpers Weekly" for Sep
TENDER a. 1885 entitled "A Recent Journey to the
West" has the following item in relation this
building:
In the basement Is room for children. where
the racks open. and the children free to
make their own selections and report them to the
assistant in charge % the room The great
Milwaukee library of 5000 volumes maintains six
delivery stations. and has developed its connection
with the nub,ic schools into a very important
feature. The plan was adopted in 1855.
The trustees of the New-York Chldrens Library
Association may modestly hope that their labors
have not been In vain.
