Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue of the Library of the Norfolk and Norwich Literary Institution: Systematically Arranged With an Alphabetical Index The Norfolk and Norwich Literary Institution was estab lished in the year 1822, for the purpose of combining publications of the highest character, both English and Foreign, in every department, with a liberal supply of the Most interesting and popular literature of the day, and a general collection of standard works thus whilst securing an ample provision of general amusement and informa tion, its Library of Reference would present valuable and increasing facilities for the cultivation of literary and scientific pursuits. To what extent these objects have been already attained, the present Catalogue will bear testimony. Difficulties have arisen, but these are happily surmounted; and the members of this Institution may now look forward, with renewed confidence, to the time when, the objects originally contemplated being fully ao complished, it may take its stand with the best provincial establishments of a similar kind.
