Gail Borden Public Library District : ウィキペディア英語版 | Gail Borden Public Library District Gail Borden Public Library is a public library district located in Elgin, Illinois, USA. District boundaries include the cities of Elgin, South Elgin, Bartlett, Streamwood, and Hoffman Estates. The library is a member of Reaching Across Illinois Library System, one of two multitype regional library systems in Illinois. ==History== The library was named in honor of Gail Borden ( 9 November 1801 - 11 January 1874 ), who in 1856 invented condensed milk. Although he never lived in Elgin or donated any funds for the library which bears his name in 1892 his step sons, Samuel and Alfred Church, residents of Elgin, purchased and donated the Scofield Mansion at 50 N. Spring Street to house the new library. Samuel and Alfred’s only request was that the library be forever and always known and called the Gail Borden Public Library.
