The Library is in Theresa, a small community located in upstate New York . Known as the "Land Of Lakes", Theresa is surrounded by a dozen beautiful fresh water lakes. Our Library takes its heritage from our location and within its walls you can hear the stories of a proud past.

Our beginning can be traced to Mr. Edson Getman, who first called for the formation of a public library. But it was George L. Putman, New York City merchant and former resident, in the 1900's, who made a gift of books to begin the Library. Using small quarters in the downstairs of the Town Hall, first librarian Mrs. Celia Whitney, together with Charter members Mary Tyler, Rev. Charles Cady, Edson Getman, Sarah Hannas and Ernest Cook made the most of what they had.
