A Note From Library Director, Crystal Middleton
If you’re tired of the chilly days and looking for connection, join us for some education, crafting, stories and fun in February. We are celebrating Black History with displays throughout the library, a special storytime for kids on 2/22, and this month's Historical Society presentation will feature stories from, "Bearing Witness, Exploring the Legacy of Enslavement in Ulster County, New York," on 2/24. We also have some great Valentine-themed programs coming up to share our love of the library! Kids can make Hearts & Crafts on 2/8 and enjoy a special Valentine storytime on 2/10. Adults and teens are invited to a Felt Crafting program on 2/3. Have a look at our calendar of programs this month and join in the fun!

Raymundo’s Memory
Serving New Paltz for Over 100 Years
In 1909, members of the New Paltz Study Club were the first to realize the need for a free library association in the village of New Paltz. Seven women from the club formed a committee and opened a reading room on the second floor of the building at 60-62 Main Street.
The Study Club assumed the expenses and hired Miss Flora Schoonmaker as librarian. When applying for a charter they realized that their location would not meet the standards set by the University of the State of New York. A new, larger, first floor location was found in the building at 68 Main Street.
