John Passmore Edwards

 

Bodmin Free Library

2004

 

Bust of passmore Edwards in the front lobby at Bodmin Library Today the library is in full use. Although Passmore Edwards still looks down on those that enter the library, from his position high above the entrance lobby, today's users come not only to read the newspapers and magazines or borrow from the extensive stock available at the library or through the inter library borrowing scheme. Whilst the ground floor is given over almost entirely to the lending library, significant changes can be found on the first floor. What had originally been the museum, and then the reference library, is now given over to a suite of computers available to all and giving access to the Internet.
