- Descripción:
- Westerkirk library was established in January 1793 when the ‘Louisa’ antimony mine owners, the Westerhall Mining Company, and several individuals presented a collection of 23 books to the miners.
Westerkirk Parish Library is the oldest library in Scotland from which books are still loaned out to the general public and into which new books are placed each year. Its records, which go back to the very first set of minutes, provide an insight into the reading habits of this part of rural Scotland over a period of 200 years - Añadido Por
