for Riverhead Free Library
Biography"Begun in the 1870s as a subscription library, the Riverhead Free Library was chartered in 1896 by New York State. The Library existed for many years in the Savings Bank Building, various storefronts and the Roanoke Avenue School, until the land at 330 Court Street was donated by the Perkins family. The Library moved into its new home in 1964, going through two expansions to make it into the building we know today. The Library is governed by a nine-member Board of Trustees." -- https://www.riverheadlibrary.org/about-rfl
