“Governing documents are available online via the secretary for the commonwealth of massachusetts corporate database and upon request. Yhe conflict of interest policy is available upon request.

“The library collections include research books, letters, diaries, antiques and art. The collections, which were acquired through purchases and contributions since the library's inception, are not recognized as assets on the statement of financial position. Collection items are expensed when purchased. Contributed collections items are not reflected on the financial statements. The estimated fair value of contributed collection items were zero for the current year. The library continually reviews its collections and may deaccession or acquire additional items. Proceeds from deaccessions are classified as net assets without donor restrictions, except when donor restrictions apply. The collections are subject to a policy that requires proceeds from deaccessioning to be used to acquire other items for collections. There were no proceeds from deaccessions for the current year.”
“The collections are held for public education and research in furtherance of public service, rather than financial gain.”
“The library is a beneficiary of a gift of 100,000 made by henry h. Rogers in 1893. The funds are to be invested in perpetuity. As restricted by the donor, the investment income is paid semi-annually and must be used for the maintenance and improvement of the library. The commonwealth of massachusetts is the trustee that holds the funds and has invested them in the massachusetts municipal depository trust, cash portfolio fund, which is managed by fidelity. Municipal depository trust, cash portfolio fund is valued at 1 per share, earning interest at a variable rate.”
