Libraries, mostly private , have
been in existence since at least
3000 B.C.. preserving the chroni-
cles of the human endeavor, but
the public library movement in
the United States didn't begin
until the last half of the 19th
Century.
School libraries can be traced
to that era also, when the prox-
imity to a public library was a
consideration when building
new schools. The school libraries
evolved as public libraries began
temporaril y placing some book
collections in schools.
It also started the era of the
bookmobiles , some of which
are still in use today in rural
areas. Were it not for libraries ,
how else, as poet John Greenleaf
Whittier put it, could the young
learn:
Where Greek and Roman f ind
themselves
Alive along these crowded
shelves:
And Shakespeare treads again
his stage.
And Chaucer paints anew his
age.
