About the North Chatham Free Library
Our Library dates back to 1886 when a local resident, Bessie Peck, was instrumental in the formation of a Chautauqua Society. Since then, the library has been a gathering place for members of the community, sponsoring diverse programs throughout the year for all ages. The Library was first Chartered in 1915. It is your “Window to Learning.” Come and visit us. Your library card is a passport from this lovely hamlet to the global community and back again.
