About The Nyack Library

Established in 1879, The Nyack Library serves the residents of Nyack, Upper Nyack, South Nyack, Grand View, and Valley Cottage. Our trained staff can assist you in the use of the collection or direct you to other sources of information. If a desired item is not in the Ramapo Catskill Library System, our staff can request it through Interlibrary Loan from another library system. The collection of books, periodicals, and audiovisuals is enhanced with electronic access.
