STIRLING'S & GLASGOW PUBLIC LIBRARY.

This library was founded in 1791 by Walter Stirling,
Esq., merchant in Glasgow, and sometime magistrate,
and has since received many very valuable additions
from various donors. The estimated number of vol-
umes at present in the library, is between 40,000
and 50,000, including a full set of the publications
of the Patent Office. The library is rich in fifteenth
century printing, and contains several manuscripts.
The library is open daily from 10 a.m. till 10 p.m.
The public are supplied with ample facilities for con-
sulting the books and specifications of patents in the
library hall.
Life subscription to lending department, £5 5s.;
annual subscription, 10s. 6d. ; six-monthly sub-
scription, 7a 6d. (entitling to two works and one
magazine). Firms sending four readers, or any com-

In 1871 the Glasgow Public Library (containing
about 14,000 vols.) was amalgamated with Stir-

vols.), who bequeathed the whole of his books and
manuscripts.
