While the Internet offers access to a wealth of material to individuals of all ages, it is, however, an unregulated medium with a highly diverse user population. In offering computer network access, the library has no control over access points, which change rapidly and unpredictably, or over the millions of Internet users and the subject matter added daily to the Internet.
It is possible that individuals might access information they personally find offensive or disturbing. Individual users must accept responsibility for determining the suitability of content for themselves and their children.
Reserve a Meeting Space
The library meeting room may be available for programs conducted or sponsored by FPL and are also available for use by others for educational, cultural, recreational or civic purposes. They shall not be used for commercial purposes, or any event that interferes with the use of FPL by other patrons.
The meeting room may be reserved by calling the library at 845-586-3791; by emailing the director at director@fairviewlibrary.org; or by completing the form below. Room reservations must be submitted at least 72 hours in advance.
Your reservation is not confirmed until you received an acknowledgement email from the library director. All decisions regarding use of the meeting room are made at the sole discretion of the director.
Ask a Librarian
Telephone
If you have a question that needs an immediate answer, or if you have a question about the library or any of its programs and services, call us while we are open. Call (845) 586-3791.
Our Ask-a-Librarian service is designed to provide brief answers to factual questions or to make referrals to locations and sources which might help to answer your question.
We will attempt to e-mail the answer to your question within 48 hours but please be mindful of the fact that we are very small library and that we are closed on Sundays and Mondays – staff are not available on those days.
If you provide lots of information, we can give you the best answer.
- Do you need specific dates?
- Do you know the names of people connected to your question?
- Is your question about another country or a specific period in history?
- Do you need a book, an article, a video, an audio book or software?
