ADVERTISEMENT. AT HOOKHAM's CIRCULATING LIBRARY, New Bend Street, Corner of Bruton Street,
Subscribers are entitled to much greater Advantages than will be found in any other public Library in England, and particularly those who reside in the Country: for, besides having Recourse to his very large Collection of Italian, French, and English Books, the Subscribers at Two Guineas per Year have every new Pamphlet, as well as new Book as soon as published; the Number of Books allowed, are twelve in Town, and twenty in the Country; and will have every Book in quarto, octavo, and duodecimo, bought for them, that may not be in the Catalogue:—To those at One Guinea, the Number is six in town and ten in the Country:—To those at Sixteen Shillings per Year, or Five Shillings per Quarter, two Books at a Time, and to deposit the Value.
WHEREAS Subscribers to Circulating Libraries frequently complain of not having the Books they want; to obviate this, the Proprietor enga|ges to purchase a sufficient quantity of Books, and to consult the Convenience and Pleasure of the Subscribers in every Respect: but as a quick Circulation is one great means to accomplish ••o desirable an Object, the Proprietor finds it ne|cessary to request an exact Observance of the Conditions, particularly those which relate to the losing and damaging of Books, or keeping them beyond the Time allowed.
