FREE PUBLIC LIBRARY
OUTGROWTH OF EARLIER
LIBRARIES ORGANIZED

The present Free Public Library
in Skowhegan is the outgrowth of
other libraries established in the
earlier days Of the town. The first
settlers of Canaan had a goodly
number of books for the times and
showed their desire for more by
subscribing as early as 1898 to the
shares OF the Canaan Social Library
which was in existence until 1880.
After this the people depended upon
private and circulating libraries
until 1857, when the Skowhegan
Library Association was incorporated
and which supplied the needs of the
town in greater or less degree for
twenty years.
When the present library building
was completed, the stockholders of
the Library Association very gen.
erously donated to the trustees their
entire library of over four thousand
volumes.
Ex-Governor Coburn bequeathed to
the trustees of Bloomfield Academy
thirty thousand dollars to be used to
found free public library. To make
this bequest of use to the town, 1t
was necessary to have suitable
building in which to house the books,
In 1889 the library building was
erected at cost of twenty thousand
dollars, the town giving five thou
sand dollars for a Memorial room
to the men who served in the Civil
War.
On the first floor are the commo-
dious reading, delivery and reference
rooms and in the rear the stack
room, where the present library OF
over seventeen thousand volumes is
accommodated with space above for
nearly as many more. The second
floor of the main building is made
into pleasant parlors where many OF
the clubs Of the town hold their
regular meetings.
Beginning with 1908, the town has
made generous appropriate each
year for the benefit of the library
which has enabled the trustees to
make very liberal rules in regard to
the loaning Of books.
That the library holds an i'm
portant part in the life of the town
is shown by the large number OF
people of all ages that frequent the
rooms.
