Book excerpt: Made Free and Thrown Open to the Public charts the history of public libraries and librarianship in Pennsylvania. Based on archival research at more than fifty libraries and historical societies, it describes a long progression from private, subscription-based associations to publicly funded institutions, highlighting the dramatic period during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries when libraries were “thrown open” to women, children, and the poor. Made Free explains how Pennsylvania’s physical and cultural geography, legal codes, and other unique features influenced the spread and development of libraries across the state. It also highlights Pennsylvania libraries’ many contributions to the social fabric, especially during World War I, the Great Depression, and World War II. Most importantly of all, Made Free convincingly argues that Pennsylvania libraries have made their greatest strides when community activists and librarians, supported with state and local resources, have worked collaboratively.

So hatte meine Enthullung dieses Geheim-nisses nur Unheil anrichten konnen, aus dem fur Niemand, nicht einmal fur Lord James, der ge-ringste Vortheil erwachsen ware. Ueberdiess war mir Dieser fast ganzlich fremd, wahrend ich Sir Richard manche Verbindlichkeiten schuldig war und auch fur die Zukunft manche Begunstigung von ihm hoffte. So entschloss ich mich zu schweigen; vorsichtshalber bemachtigte ich mich dieser Papiere und kehrte am nachsten Morgen nach Edinburgh zuruck. Kurz darauf erhielt ich ein Schreiben von Sir Richard, worin er mir anzeigte, dass seine angegriffene Gesundheit ihn nothige, England fur langere Zeit zu verlassen; er uberschickte mir zugleich ein werthvolles Andenken als Beweis seiner Dankbarkeit, wie er sich ausdruckte. Da ich jetzt mit dem Stand der Dinge vertraut war, so erkannte ich, dass er mir mittelst dieses Briefes und dieses Geschenkes meinen Abschied gegeben hatte. Ich dachte in der ersten Zeit hausig und mit seltsamen Gefuhlen an Sir Richard;

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What stories do we tell about America’s once-great industries at a time when they are fading from the landscape? Pennsylvania in Public Memory attempts to answer that question, exploring the emergence of a heritage culture of industry and its loss through the lens of its most representative industrial state. Based on news coverage, interviews, and more than two hundred heritage sites, this book traces the narrative themes that shape modern public memory of coal, steel, railroading, lumber, oil, and agriculture, and that collectively tell a story about national as well as local identity in a changing social and economic world.
