Solvay Public Library
Solvay Public Library, Carnegie library in Solvay, New York.
The Solvay Public Library features buff-colored brick walls, a high basement foundation, and Classical Revival elements including an Ionic order portico at 615 Woods Road.
Commissioned in 1903 with a $10,000 contribution from Andrew Carnegie, the library opened in 1904 after construction costs reached over $27,000 due to architectural expansions.
The library serves the village residents through various educational programs, reading sessions, technology workshops, and maintains partnerships with local schools for literacy development.
The institution provides access to physical books, digital resources, e-books, audiobooks, and online databases through its membership in the Onondaga County Public Library System.
During World War I, the library allocated space for military personnel support and offered language lessons to soldiers stationed in the area.
