About Us:

The Town of Hyde Park has in its midst a community resource that is free to the residents. It is free to the students, free to the seniors, free to families, free to the teens, free to pre-schoolers and free even to businesses. It is the Hyde Park Free Library which is supported by the taxpayers and donations to the library. Our library is a place where people without a home computer can come and make use of ours. A library card is your ticket to hours of education, enjoyment or research - all available by walking through the door. In case you have not visited the library recently, you will notice some basic changes in the way our library does its business. It offers fully automated services. Each book in the library is bar coded and a scanning light pen reads your library card, checks out your selection and maintains library records all in the blink of an eye. The Hyde Park Free Library has been designated a New York State Electronic Doorway Library. It is a member of the Mid Hudson Library System.
