Community Libraries
TCPL is part of the Finger Lakes Library System, which consists of 33 member libraries throughout five counties. In addition to the member libraries there are community libraries in Caroline and Danby that offer recreational reading and computer access.
The community libraries receive materials through support from town funding and local donations. They also receive collection support through the Friends of the Tompkins County Public Library, Tompkins County Public Library, and Finger Lakes Library System.
