George William Curtis, summer residents of the town. It absorbed the books formerly belonging to the Second Social Library of Ashfield (1815 ) ... and these volumes, with liberal donations from the gentlemen above named, formed the nucleus of the library."〔(Report of the Free Public Library Commission of Massachusetts ). 1899.〕 Around 1911 "Andrew Carnegie ... offered to give $3,000 for a library building, on the usual terms, but there () opposition to accepting the offer."〔(Report of the Free Public Library Commission of Massachusetts ), Jan. 1911〕 The current building was donated in 1913 by silk manufacturer M.M. Belding, a New Yorker.〔Bulletin of the American Library Association, March 1914.〕〔http://doddcenter.uconn.edu/findaids/Belding/MSS19890076.html〕 At the time, Belding's gift was considered particularly generous: "The announcement that the little town of Ashfield in Western Massachusetts -- a town once famous for its summer colony of learning and culture ... -- is to be presented with a 30,000-dollar public library by a filially affectionate native of the place, Mr. M.M. Belding of New York, prompts the query whether a little farming community of less than a thousand inhabitants, barely making its rock-ribbed acres yield it a livelihood, will thoroughly enjoy the prospect of maintaining the splendid institutions whose marble walls, bronze doors, pedestal lamps, and other luxurious appurtenances, will present an appearance so strikingly at variance with their simple rural environment."〔(The Dial ), Sept. 16, 1913〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Belding Memorial Library」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
