Yet all this you can do if you are allowed to borrow the books. You can treat them exactly as if they were your own. The answer to it is very simple. You cannot by any device or contrivance combine the advantages of private and of public property.
He who wishes to use the books of a public library must submit to many personal inconveniences ; and the man who is unwilling to deny himself for the general good is the very last person in the community to whom any favor ought to be shown, and of all
... people he least de- — 14 — serves the favor of borrowing. In the present day, books are so com- mon and so cheap, and modern readers too frequently so unrefined, that they get into a vile habit of misusing them, and to such persons— that is, to the great majority— the books of a public library cannot be safely trusted, except under the very strictest supervision. By lend- ing the books we are perceptibly hastening the destruction of a library intended by its founder and benefactors to be a blessing for genera- tions of scholars yet unborn.
