| A little about the Newfane Free
Library |
| On a cold January night in
1911 a meeting of the committees from the different organizations
of the town of Newfane was held at the Methodist Evangelical Church
to ponder the question "Does the Town of Newfane need a public
library and reading room?" The answer was a unanimous "YES!"
and since those early days the Town of Newfane has encouraged and
supported its library, which in turn has striven to meet the needs
of its townspeople. |
