New library opens in Monticello

Posted

MONTICELLO, NY — More than 200 people braved the cold temps and flurries on October to participate in the ribbon-cutting ceremony celebrating the new Ethelbert B. Crawford Library building. Lining Broadway, folks passed books from the old building, which opened in 1936, to the new one at 479 Broadway in a “Book Brigade” symbolizing the more than 30,000 books that made the journey from one building to the other. During the opening ceremony the new library logo, designed by recent Monticello High School graduate Jonathan Fox, was unveiled by Library Director Mary Paige Lang-Clouse. The new facility will be open for business starting October 26.
