Ayr Scrapbooks
APL-APL 16 · Série organique · 1920-1980
Fait partie de Ayr Public Library

This series consists of scrapbooks of Ayr-specific newspaper clippings between 1935 and 1973. There appears to be scrapbooks completed by two different creators: Margaret Stockton, who compiled birth and death notices in several small notebooks; and another, unnamed creator who compiled births, deaths and general news items in very large scrapbooks. Between the two creators the years between 1920 and 1980 are covered, though the years between 1950 and 1980 received much more thorough coverage and many years have coverage from both sets of scrapbooks. Starting in 1969, the unknown creator began creating two scrapbooks per year thanks to the sheer amount of material. One scrapbook will cover the first half of the year, the other the later months and a collection of Birth, Death and Wedding Notices at the rear. Series is arranged chronologically.

Department of Education
APL-APL 2 · Série organique · 1895-1968
Fait partie de Ayr Public Library

This series contains the Ayr Public Library's copies of the paperwork they sent to the Department of Education during their time as an independent public library. The Department of Education was responsible for issuing libraries with the operating grants they needed to complete thier budgets, and so the Department required that the libraries send them various statistics to determine whether or not they were eligible for grants. Within this series are the Library's copies of the Annual Reports they were required to send to the Department, the Annual Invoices of all books purchased, the other paperwork necessary to obtain their operating grants, as well as various announcements by the Department that were distributed to Ontario libraries.

The annual reports recorded various statistics including the number of books in circulation, staff pay and the costs of maintenance. The annual invoices were used to document what books were purchased or recerved by the Library. The invoices are separated into sheets for Adult Fiction, Adult Non-Fiction, Children's Fiction and so on, with each different category having a different coloured sheet. The grant paperwork includes statements from the Department indicating the size of grant the Library could expect, as well as some grant forms from the 1960s. Until the 1960s, the annual report had contained the grant form, but the Department separated them in the sixties. The collection of announcements includes circulars about issues facing libraries, lists of new books and information about grant applications. Series is arranged chronologically.

APL-APL 7 · Série organique · 1921-1967
Fait partie de Ayr Public Library

This series consists of questionnaires sent by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics to the Ayr Public Library between 1921 and 1967. The Dominion Bureau of Statistics, founded in 1919 was the predecessor of Statistics Canada, which replaced the Bureau in 1971. The Bureau sent the Ayr Library annual questionnaires for them to fill out so that the Bureau could compile statistics about Canadian Libraries. The questionnaires asked about salaries, budgets, total revenues and expenditures, number of books, number of patrons and number of books circulated. The Ayr Library did not always retain a copy of the Questionnaire for themselves, so for a number of years there are only the instructions for filling the forms, but not the forms. In other years, the Library retained a copy of the completed forms as well as the instructions. Series is arranged chronologically.

Correspondence
APL-APL 9 · Série organique · 1908-1965
Fait partie de Ayr Public Library

This series contains correspondence that the Ayr Public Library engaged in between 1908 and 1965. Since the recipient naturally kept the Library's letters to them, this series only contains the letters sent to the library. Within this series there are four types of correspondence. The first type is the solicitations- or advertisements- that the library recieved. The second type is business correspondence, where the Library was activiely corresponding with businesses for building repairs or upgrades, new equipment, lists of new books and the like. The third type is Inter-Library Correspondence, which includes letters from other Ontario muncipal libraries, generally discussing meetings of the Ontario Library Association, answering questions and making inquiries of the Ayr Library and passing along useful literature and hints for a newly founded library. The final type of correspondence present in this series is undated letters, and so cannot be organized properly into the other types. This file has only two letters- one written by an elementary school class to a librarian, and another written to the Library in general. Series is arranged chronologically.
