In four western counties of Massachusetts, at least 130 public libraries are planned or operating with about 25,000 books. The towns housing them serve around 307,000 residents. Some libraries began from dog tax or private contributions, others from public funds. Books are kept in town halls, engine houses, schools, or civic residences where space exists. Librarians often work without pay or with modest stipends ranging from 45 to 30 dollars yearly, and some have bought books with personal funds and charged patrons two cents a day until costs were covered. The library movement in Massachusetts unites efforts and resources across communities.
