Campaigners hope the original benefactor's words could be used to keep an Aberdeen library open.
"There is a remarkable 116-page letter written by the original benefactor Sir John Anderson, to whom we're indebted for the establishment of Woodside Library," he told BBC Scotland.
"I'm paraphrasing here, but what he speaks about is 'the threat of ruthless hands in the future' not valuing the library in the way that he wishes it to be. Mr Lorimer said: "I'm no legal scholar, however, in the appendices of that petition there are particular protections and provisions put in place by Sir John Anderson that were respected in the 1929 transfer whereby Woodside library and its future have to be protected by the town, or city council and moreover that should any future be envisaged for that library, the building or the land, then that would be potentially subject to challenge.
He explained: "Like so many people in this area it's been part of our family story. My son, who has now left school, learned to read with books borrowed from Woodside library.
