                         HON. ELISE M. STEFANIK

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                     Wednesday, September 12, 2018

  Ms. STEFANIK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor and recognize Mooers 
Free Library on its 101st Anniversary.
  Since it first opened its doors to the public in 1917, the Mooers 
Free Library has worked to provide the community with free access to 
the world of information and ideas, and to enhance community life. The 
Mooers Free Library is part of the Clinton Essex Franklin Library 
System, which allows residents to request books from any library in the 
tri-county area, as well as links the library to a worldwide network of 
books.
  In order to meet the public's advancing intellectual and cultural 
needs, just last year the Mooers Free Library opened a brand new 
building with an updated book collection, new computers, and an 
afterschool program for children. As Mooers Free Library continues to 
prosper, the community grows along side it.
  On behalf of New York's 21st District, I want to congratulate Mooers 
Free Library on its 101st Anniversary and thank the dedicated people 
who work there for their tireless commitment to serving the community.
