Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow, Ever Forward
Serving over 19,000 patrons in the Ellenville School District, the Towns of Wawarsing
and Rochester. The mission of the Ellenville Public Library & Museum is to provide resources, services and public programming of the highest possible quality to meet the ongoing informational, educational, cultural and recreational needs of its broadly diverse community. The Ellenville Public Library can trace its history to the spring of 1893,
when it was organized as a school district library. Begun with a collection of some
1,000 books, the library has grown in size and stature, serving today as the
informational and cultural center of our community.

The HISTORIC ARCHITECTURE of ULSTER COUNTY
Tuesday, February 7, 7:00pm
Join architectural historian William Rhoads for a delightful presentation on
Ulster County’s architectural history based on his new book:
Ulster County New York, The Architectural History & Guide.
Rhoads’ newest title is both a guide book to take on your travels around the county's roads and a satisfying history book to read. Filled with photos, dates, architects,
and a brief history of each structure, this town-by-town guide illustrates just how much history we drive past every day.
