Newburyport Public Library

Archival Center

These folks keep me company when I volunteer at the library, and today I learned a little bit about their stories:

The gentleman was moved to the Archival Center, in the basement, a few years ago, after some frisky teens tossed him out of the second-floor window one spring day.

The young woman has never been upstairs because the library trustees believe her unclothed bosom would scandalize most patrons!
