Administrative history
The Toronto Burns' Literary Society was founded in 1896 to celebrate the life and work of Scottish poet Robert Burns. About 1947 the name was changed from Burns' Literary Society to Burns' Club. Although the club was never formally dissolved it eventually succumbed to a lack of new members.
