The Danby Community Library is in Town Hall and is open on Tuesday 1-3pm, Thursday 10am-12pm, and Saturday 10am-12pm.
Look for the Flag! An "open" flag will be hung by the front door of Town Hall whenever the library is open. This may include times that are additional to the ones listed. Please enter the library through the right front door of Town Hall.
- In order to preview our collection, visit here (http://cloud.collectorz.com/201255/books). This will allow you to see all the items available in the Danby Library, both books and DVDs. In the upper right corner of the 1st screen there is a group of four boxes; this allows you to switch back and forth between movies and book listing.
- Books can be signed out for four weeks and DVDs two weeks. An outside book return is available if you are not able to come while the library is open. Extensions or item requests can be made by email or phone.
Rotating collections from Tompkins County Public Library have resumed and include Large Type, Adult Fiction, and Mysteries. These collections are rotated every six months.
The Town of Danby sits on the traditional & ancestral land of the Gayogoho:no’ (Cayuga Nation), one of the five nations to first form the Haudenosaunee. Indigenous peoples were largely forced out of Upstate New York by the Sullivan-Clinton Expedition in 1779. The land that would become the Town of Danby was a part of the Watkins and Flint Purchase, a 336,380 acre patent granted by New York State to numerous eastern investors in 1794.
