Brumback Library

edit

A castle-like stone building, seen at nightfall

  • ... that Ohio's Brumback Library was the first county library in the United States?

5x expanded by Nyttend (talk). Self nominated at 04:46, 6 January 2014 (UTC).

  • Article expansion exceeds the 5X req't and is sufficiently recent. The article is well written and sourced and neutrally written. QPQ req't satisfied. No close paraphrasing issues, copyright violations and plagiarism detected. Hook is short enough and interesting. There is an in-line citation for the hook fact which is to a book that is off-line; assumption of good faith applies as to established editor's sourcing. (I also did some on-line searches and found other sources indicating that Brumback does, indeed, appear to have been the first county library in the US.) Image is the nominator's own work, is of good quality, and has a public domain release. Good to go in all respects. Cbl62 (talk) 06:10, 9 January 2014 (UTC)
