Summary

Port Elliot Institute was built in 1880 as a lending library with a reading room and had 7 yearly members. The first paid librarian was Mrs Fanny Baker. In 1927 a newly designed building was opened and said to be one of the finest halls in the south. This photograph taken in 1927 shows the opening of the new addition to the Institute. A banner across the front door says "Welcome Back Port Elliot"
