Senator Farley Secures Grant for Gloversville Library

As Chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Libraries, State Senator Hugh T. Farley (R, C, I – Schenectady) was proud to recently secure a $2 million grant for a major construction of the library building.

“This is a very exciting project that will preserve this architectural treasure, improve library services, expand the library’s role in the social life of the community, and give an economic boost and vibrancy to downtown” said Senator Farley. “I am thrilled to have obtained these State funds for this important renovation project.”

“The improved facility will be a tremendous asset to Gloversville and Fulton County, as well as a vital part of downtown. This is not just an investment in a building, but is an investment in the community and a vote of confidence in its future,” said Senator Farley. “Many local residents have worked diligently to preserve and improve the Library and strengthen downtown, and I am pleased to join them in bringing this project to fruition.”

During the presentation, library officials presented Senator Farley with a plaque that will be installed in the library after its renovation project.
