| TEXT | This is the largest library in New Jersey, having 25,000 volumes, and all the leading weekly and monthly magazines and quarterly reviews. The rooms are light, airy, and comfortable, and the rates of membership most moderate. The organization has existed since 1847, and the best citizens of Newark are connected with it. Of these, the president, W. A. Whitehead, Esq., has been thirty years continuously identified with the institution. Mr. W. E. Layton has also been prominent in the organization from its commencement, and for the last eleven years has served with rare efficiency as librarian. He is esteemed by all and is a most useful, faithful, and exemplary officer. The property belongs to the Association and is worth $100.000. The library is regarded with just pride by all and disseminates much useful knowledge. |
