Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue of the Dayton Public Library, 1884: Authors, Subjects and Titles This library, in connection with a reading-room and with its winter course of lectures, was sustained for many years, and was one of the marked features of our city. It was supported by an annual fee from its members; and as a free public library had been established, it was believed that the public interests would be best served by a union of the two. In 1860 the stockholders of the Library Association, by a vote, transferred their valuable library and furniture to the Board of Education.
