Palmyra Community Library

The library has an impeccable collection of fiction and nonfiction books and a rich access of online resources and literature. Added to that are extraordinary presentations and activities month after month. It offers wonderful children's activities for every age level as well as a deep set of resources for adults. The staff is always pleasant and helpful no matter what the question or request. They make a visit to the library comfortable enriching. And all this exists in an exquisite building that has been deftly converted to library use. Palmyra is quite fortunate to have a library with such rich and varied resources. The Palmyra Community Library is a major asset to the Village and Town of Palmyra. And it's fun to visit!

This library is amazing and beautiful. It does so much for the area. The librarians are kind and patient. The local history collection is extensive and well organized. I love visiting here.

I have never in my life known such an amazing library staff. I could go on and on about them but I’m sure Google would cut me short. Their best quality by far is the love they show to children. As my daughter has gotten older we go to the library less because of after-school activities, but they never forget her. That has such a positive effect on a child’s self-esteem. I hope I used the the correct effect/affect. I’m sure the librarians will know😄.

Great fun at the library pop-up shop today!!

Palmyra's branch of the greater OWWL system is smaller than many, but it's "quaintness" and history (the building was once owned by the Garlock Co.) make it inviting none-the-less. As Palmyra is a small village nearly devoid of commercial business, this library suits it well. Since it still serves as a hub for OWWL, you can order from a vast selection of materials and have them delivered and held here for your convenience. Added: 03/05/2024 - the juvenile section at the front of the 2nd floor was recently refreshed and reorganized and it looks great the bright colors really make it feel fun and energetic!
