ALT1:that the Lower Merion Library System is over 100 years old?ALT2:that the Lower Merion Library System has one of the highest per capita circulation rates in Pennsylvania?

This article is new enough and long enough. Going for the original hook which has an inline citation, while ALT1 does not and ALT2 I cannot find. The article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. (I'm interested to see the Welsh connection with Lower Merion.) Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:13, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks for the review.
Quick comments just for clarity, the article mentions the Ardmore branch opening in 1898 and the per capita information is in the sources, albeit not directly in the article itself.The Welsh Tract would have more information about the Welsh origin to the area. You should see some of the street names in the area, telemarketers are found out rather quickly trying to pronounce neighborhoods or street names. I have added inline about Ardmore opening up in 1898 and linked the Annual Report which has that, and also added a comment about top 2% in circulation and linked to that, rather than a cite to an XLS spreadsheet.

@Sir Joseph: please add at least one cite to the 2nd paragraph under History, per Rule D2. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 14:12, 13 May 2016 (UTC)
- @Yoninah:, thanks for updating. I added a ref to the cite, it's on page 27 of the PDF listed as the reference. Sir Joseph (talk) 15:41, 13 May 2016 (UTC)
