Bylaws for the East River Reading Room

In 1874, the East River Reading Room on the Boston Post Road in Madison, CT opened and served as a town library and meeting place. According to its bylaws shown here and which were always on the wall near the stage, the objective was "the mental and moral improvement of its members by means of books, papers, magazines and periodicals with exhibitions, readings, recitations, music and lectures."
