Paperback. Condition: New. Chetham's Library is the oldest surviving public library in Britain. It was founded in 1653, under the will of Humphrey Chetham, a prosperous Manchester textile merchant, banker and landowner. His legacy also established a school for 40 poor boys (now a specialist music school) and provided for five ch…ained libraries to be placed in local churches.The Library, in Manchester, England, is housed in a beautiful sandstone building dating from 1421, which was constructed to accommodate the priests of Manchester's Collegiate Church (now the Cathedral).

It tells the story of how an institution has evolved through its people, history, architecture, purpose and practice.
