Penfield Public Library is dedicated to providing the community with the tools and resources to promote growth and education for all ages.
The Penfield Library has been serving the community since January 25, 1942. From its humble beginnings of less than 1000 volumes, Penfield Library's shelves now contain over 120,000 books on many varied subjects serving children, youth and adults.
The Penfield Public Library is chartered by the Board of Regents of the University of the State of New York.
The Library offers a broad and ever evolving collection of print and non-print materials as well as technology, programs, and gathering spaces for discussion, to meet informal learning and informational, cultural, and recreational needs of the patrons of all ages.
The Library strives to provide library services in a fiscally responsible manner, on a free and equal basis and in an atmosphere of friendly, responsive customer service.
In providing these valuable services the library is a viable force promoting individual and community growth.
