Founded in 1893, Yonkers Public Library is a three-branch public library system serving the residents of Yonkers and surrounding communities; it is also a member of the Westchester Library System. The main branch is the Riverfront Library, a modern four-story public library that includes a 450-seat theater, multiple meeting and study rooms, a local history collection, and a community art gallery. The Riverfront Library is also the location of the agency’s administrative offices. It's located across from the Yonkers train station featuring beautiful views of the Hudson River. The library has two additional branches serving the community. The Grinton I. Will branch serves Eastern Yonkers, while our Crestwood Branch serves the Northeast neighborhoods. All locations offer hundreds of programs and events throughout the year. Our collection is diverse and offers formats in multiple languages.
