THE BARTLETT HISTORY FUND 2007
The
Bartlett
History Fund was
established by the Bartlett Library Trustees
following the Town’s bicentennial in 1990. The purpose
of the History Fund is to further the recording of
the history of
Bartlett and its vicinity.
Profits from the sale of the local history, Bartlett,
New Hampshire; In the Valley of the Saco, and The
Latchkey was Always Out and the sale of bicentennial
memorabilia were set aside to establish the Bartlett
History Fund.
The following guidelines
for the Bartlett History Fund have been established:
•
All monies received from future sales of the
Bartlett History books, bicentennial memorabilia, and
any other project undertaken by the Trustees for the
History Fund will go into the History Fund.
•
This money is put into a separate account under
the name “Bartlett History Fund.”
•
This fund may not be used for the Library budget.
The Library may, however, use this fund to purchase
books and material relating to the history of the town.
This material will then become a part of the Bartlett
History Collection which is maintained in a special
fireproof file cabinet.
•
The money in the History Fund may be expended for
historical projects, pictures, postcards, and other
types of historical materials.
•
The Bartlett Library Trustees must approve the
above expenditures. Donations of materials and monetary
gifts may be made to the Fund.
