Bytown Mechanics' Institute

The Bytown Mechanics' Institute is an Upper Canada example of knowledge transfer organizations aimed at the grass roots. These institutions were Victorian and moralistic in tone and class oriented in structure which, in part, explains their failure. However, they show the tendency towards democratic institutions in the early history of Canada where borders between the United and Canada where more fluid than in the present era and encourage such ideals. These institutions attempted to include the working class, French Canadians and women where the British social model did not support these inclusions. The composition of the executive of the Bytown Mechanics' Institute in its various formations illustrates this and exemplifies the issues of cost and available leisure time that would eventually cause the Institutes failure.〔Blanchard, Jim. Anatomy of Failure: Ontario Mechancis’ Institutes, 1895-1935, ''Canadian Library Journal'', v.38(1981)p.396.〕
==Origins==

In the 1830s, ''newsrooms'' were beginning to open in Bytown, Upper Canada. Newsrooms were spaces where reading materials, especially newspapers, were made available presumably to those who subscribed and paid for the materials. Newsrooms were set up in the British Hotel in Upper Town and another in McArthur’s Hotel in Lower Town.〔Hirsch, R. Forbes, ''The Bytown Mechanics' Institute: Improving the Mind of the Working Class.'', Bytown Pamphlet series; 39) 1992. p .6.〕 The longevity of these organizations was influenced by the long hours of the working class.
In 1845, clerks in Bytown organized ''The Mercantile Library Association.'' This association appears to have been an extension of the Upper Town newsroom as both were housed in the British Hotel.〔Lucien Brault,''Ottawa Old and New.''Ottawa: 1946, pp. 280-281〕
