Thank you to everyone who voted to approve our increase of $5,000 from the tax levy. We greatly appreciate the ongoing support of our community!

The money we receive from the tax levy is used to offset general operational costs for running the library. Our library construction project is being funded by our capital campaign, NYS Library Construction Grants, and grants from other entities.

We’re raising money to build a new library adjacent to Opendore in Sherwood. To meet new challenges, we’ve set up this campaign on Paypal with a goal of $50,000.

With your help, Hazard Library Association can reach this goal and continue the work we’ve set out to do in this campaign.

Please help if you can. Every donation makes a difference.

Help us meet our goal to “Open at Opendore”.

We now have some COVID tests available courtesy of East Hill Medical Center. They ask that you report any positive results to the library for anonymous tracking of cases across the county.

We also have tick removal kits courtesy of the Cayuga County Health Department.

 

 

You can see what we have added to our shelves during the past 6 months by visiting New Materials

 

                            

We now have a donation box available if you would like to help us with our building expenses.

Stop in to find out about our plans to relocate the library to Opendore and to see our concept drawings.
