Excerpt from First Annual Report of the Worcester County Law Library: March 10, 1899 Judge F. A. Gaskill, Mr. T. G. Kent, and Col. T. S. Johnson, Directors: Gentlemen - I came into office Tuesday, August 2, 1898, and found here a law library of 19,110 volumes, as follows: Main floor, 6,867 Gallery, . 7,103 Room No.6, 3,097 Room over No.6, 2,043 19,110 I found no records, except a curious sort of accession book, evidently kept for the purpose of helping in making the printed catalogue. I also found bills and various memoranda relating to the library. I speedily made myself acquainted with the library in a broad way, and have had no trouble in finding books. The need was apparent of a thorough organization of the library, and the institution of a set of records such as are found in all up-to-date libraries. By your authority I ordered of the Library Bureau a catalogue case and cards, and began an author catalogue, and up to date I have done about 1,200 volumes - being the miscellaneous text books on the main floor.
