Chamberlin Free Public Library is pleased to announce that we have been awarded a Conservation Grant by the New Hampshire State Library for $9,397 to be applied to our Colombian Manufacturing Company Ledgers Preservation Project.  This project will restore and digitize some of the most important records of the Columbian Manufacturing Company, located in what was at the time, Mason Village, NH (now Greenville, NH).  This company provided the economic prosperity and social awareness for this part of the Souhegan Valley from the late 1820's well into the twentieeth century.  For the first time ever, these invaluable documents will now be available to the public for research in a digital format while restoring and preserving the original documents.  The digital version of these documents will be available at the library and on our web site when the project is completed.
