Jonathan Bourne Public Library The Jonathan Bourne Public Library (est. 1891) is a public library in Bourne, Massachusetts. Prior to 1891, the town lacked a public library. The Bourne library was named in honor of Jonathan Bourne (1811-1889), who was a New Bedford alderman, major investor in the whaling business, member of executive councils of Massachusetts governors George D. Robinson and Oliver Ames, and namesake of the town of Bourne. Bourne's daughter, Emily Howland Bourne, donated the library's original building in 1897.
