WORCESTER – After a five-year renovation, the new Worcester-Schenevus Library opened on Tuesday at 170 Main St. here, Diane Addesso, president, announced today.
A grand opening is planned in mid-May.
The new space is a Victorian former residence built around 1880. The Library’s previous location, a single room in the Wieting Theater, was built by philanthropist Hellen Wilder Wieting in 1910 and expanded to two rooms in 1922.
State Sen. Jim Seward, R-Milford, today announced almost $200,000 in state grants for three local libraries, including $92,388 to bring the new Worcester Free Library to completion.
The Edmeston Free Library receives $75,610 for renovations, inside and outside, to a donated building. And Hartwick’s Kinney Memorial Library received $10,509 for paving the parking lot and driveway in the hamlet.
