The Honesdale library has been
in existence in the high school just
one year and an excellent showing
has been made in comparison to the
population of the borough. The Ii
brary opened on November 10, 1912,
and the year ended Tuesday evening,
November Is, 1913. During the year
just closed 1854 books have been
loaned out. The month of March
was the largest month, there having
been 1,277 books given out, while
the smallest number given out in
any one month was during September
when only 1856 books were loaned.
The local library has 936 patrons
which is certainly very good show
ing considering the population of
Honesdale and immediate vicinity to
be about 1000 people. The rate
would be about one library patron to
every seven people. The library is
open every Tuesday and Friday eve
ming. The average number of books
given out each month was S79.
