The architect's pencil sketch of Newburyport Public Library. The Tracy Mansion is visible to the viewer's right. Its main entrance, now leading to a reading room, is no longer used.The Tracy Mansion as public library, 1899. The tree to the left, where the modern wing now is, is a massive colonial elm, which must have been standing when George Washington stayed as a dinner guest there.
Newburyport Public Library, in Newburyport, Massachusetts, was founded in September, 1854, by Josiah Little. It opened its doors to the public on September 5, 1855, in Ward Room 4 of the new City Hall. On that day its collection amounted to about 5750 books.[1] Its operating budget depended at first on legacies and the generosity of private citizens. The library flourished.
