Summary
Collection of books on the shelf at the original Brunswick Public Library in the old West End Elementary School on 317 Brunswick Street?
The Brunswick Library Association was formed on March 1, 1962. With 3,500 books, the library opened its doors on April 23, 1963.
Chris Weitzel I was there with my mom the day the library opened and was the first person to take out a book. I don’t remember what it was.
Shari Therit I was there all the time. I remember the librarian tried to get me to read easier books. My mother told her what I was selecting was fine for me. Loved reading!
Linda Moss I went to the library just about every week. I would usually get a chapter book and a Beatrix Potter book. I used to shelve books there for Mrs. Hortman. (Right now I’m working as a librarian; little did I know then how much my work there would help me so many years later.)
