io MANUAL OF LIBRARY ECONOMY The library law of New York, passed in 1835, under which the state was to grant to a school district a sum of money equal to the sum appropriated by the district itself for the purchase of books, established the principle of taxation for the support of libraries. New Hampshire passed a very simple library law in 1849, with no limit as to appropriation and no conditions as to management. Massachusetts enacted in 1851 a brief law under which libraries multiplied rapid
...ly in the common- wealth. Maine in 1854 passed an unsatisfactory law, permitting the levy of a dollar on each ratable poll to establish a library and twenty-five cents per poll for maintenance. Vermont did little better in 1865. The Ohio law of 1867 tied the library to the educational system. In 1872 Colorado passed a good law, and Illinois devised an elaborate and thoroughly satis- factory act which has influenced many states, New Jersey, Wisconsin, Michigan, California, Missouri, and others. Some sections of the country were for a long time very backward in library legislation, including Connecticut, Pennsylvania, and even New York, where the fairly convenient school district system was not altered till 1892.
