The Burlington County Library is a public library system that serves 37 out of the 40 municipalities of Burlington County, New Jersey. The central headquarters is in Westampton. The library collection contains approximately 770,000 volumes, and its annual circulation was 1.8 million in 2005. The libraries of Moorestown, Mount Laurel, and Willingboro are not affiliated with the Burlington County Library System. ==History== In 1921, the New Jersey Legislature passed a bill providing for the creation of a county library system via referendum for Burlington County. Proponents viewed the measure as a method to distribute books to the rural community and centralize library facilities.〔 Burlington County voters approved the referendum by 73 percent, making the Burlington County Library System the first county library in New Jersey. The library began as a small room of the Mount Holly YMCA,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.bcls.lib.nj.us/about )〕 which functioned as the library's depository. Service consisted of delivering collections of books to various community distribution centers by a Model T library truck.〔 In 1971, the library's new headquarters in Westampton was constructed.〔
