About Us
The Roscoe Free Library was chartered by the New York State Board of Regents in 1921, at which time it was little more than a small book-lending and reading group which operated out of a member's home. Since then it has occupied several sites, including a basement room in the Roscoe Central School, and currently occupies the building, on the corner of Maple St. and Highland Ave., which was donated by a local benefactor in 1979.
The Roscoe Free Library is a member of the Ramapo Catskill Library System and offers the full range of services provided by the System. These services include an online catalog, inter-library loan and delivery, electronic reference services, FAX, copy machine, home-bound delivery, local newspaper on microfilm (1894-1942) and Internet access.
