Library Services

The Stone Ridge Library offers patrons access to a wide variety of materials, including local history materials, ready reference information, current best-sellers, audios, videos and DVD's. Through our computer databases and connections with the Mid-Hudson library system, we can also offer up to date information on medical questions, current events, and academic research topics. Our catalog and databases can be accessed from home as well as from the library.

Our children's programming includes story hours, after-school programs and participation in the state wide summer reading program. Special programs such as Harry Potter Day and our American Girl tea party are also library features.

We have an active senior volunteer group that meets on Monday mornings to help the Library and spend some time socializing. Small book groups meet at the library. Additionally, services such as tax help for seniors, literacy tutoring and computer instruction are available during specific program times.
