Hauppauge Public Library – Our Formation and the First 20 Years

To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Hauppauge Public Library, we set out to write the story of its formation and history to date.

Current and former trustees, staff, and community members were interviewed to help us document the Library’s history. Current staff members also searched the Library’s extensive archive for photographs.

The resulting booklet is dedicated to the residents of the Hauppauge Public Library district – past, present, and future residents, its founders, staff and all who have helped support the mission of the Library.

The Library’s history is available to download here. A narrated version is also available by clicking on the video below.

We hope you enjoy the story of the first 20 years of the Hauppauge Public Library.
