The Amsterdam Free Library

The Amsterdam Free Library, which is more than a century old, has been nominated for a spot on the National and New York State Registers of Historic Places, as officials at the library are envisioning what the building could look like in the future.

I recently joined library director Nicole Hemsley for a tour of the library.
