Ossining Public Library
The Ossining Public Library, originally chartered in 1893 as the Sing Sing Public Library, serves the 33,064 residents of the Village and Town of Ossining, and parts of Briarcliff Manor, Yorktown, and New Castle.
The current collections of the library include over 110,000 books, 25,000 non-print items, and 300 newspaper and magazine titles. As a charter member of the 38-member Westchester Library System, the Ossining Public Library can also offer its patrons access to the more than one million holdings of the other county libraries.
An ambitious ($15.8 million) building program was started in 2005 to replace its 1960s-era facility with a new 48,000-square-foot (4,500 m2) building. The new Ossining Public Library opened in March, 2007 and added many new or enhanced services, including over 50 public Internet terminals, a 250-seat theater, an art gallery, a cafe, and the county's first radio frequency circulation system.
