@[email protected] hm, that made me go "vibes check out" if a ton were from the Carnegie era? 1883 to 1929.
Not just Carnegie buildings but from that era of Carnegies. And or in buildings that took over from local govt?
I would certainly believe it if they said the median vs. the average
But I'm intrigued!
@[email protected] Yeah I mean the actual quote totally screams "AN AI WROTE THIS" because it says "The mean age of the libraries in the state according to a survey by the Vermont Department of Libraries is 1912" Like 1912 is not an age, but I get the gist. I do assume it was Carnegie-adjacent. My library is from 1909 iirc so I bet a lot are from exactly that decade-ish.
