Elting Memorial Library
Elting Memorial Library, Public library in New Paltz, New York, United States.
The stone building at 93 Main Street features symmetrical Federal architecture with traditional decorative elements and multiple expansion wings added over time.
The library originated in 1909 when the New Paltz Study Club established a reading room, later relocating to its current location through Philip Lefevre Elting's donation.
The Haviland-Heidgerd Historical Collection maintains over 10,000 documents, including newspapers, photographs, and records dating back to 1860 for research purposes.
The library serves 14,000 residents, circulates 101,000 items annually, and operates daily with extended hours on weekdays from 10 AM to 7 PM.
The institution gained national attention in 2007 when security cameras recorded an unexplained phenomenon, becoming the most viewed online video about New Paltz.
