Claverack Free Library, Historic library in Claverack, United States
The Claverack Free Library occupies a renovated former firehouse on NY 23B, featuring 11,000 square feet of space with dedicated areas for different age groups.
The library association, established in 1891, initially operated from the parlors of Oakledge mansion before moving through several locations in response to local development.
The library maintains a History Room containing resources about Claverack College, Columbia County, and local heritage through photographs, documents, and vintage postcards.
Visitors can access the library catalog through the Mid-Hudson Library System and request free museum passes through their website.
The 2019 renovation project raised 2.8 million dollars from various sources, allowing the library to open in its new location completely debt-free.
