Round Lake Library

The mission of WRILS was "to make Round Lake desirable and attractive as a place of residence and in all ways to study to keep pace with the progressive spirit of the age."

The Village of Round Lake has decorative wooden homes crowded closely together and while this makes for a quaint community, it also created a fire hazard.

WRILS continues to support the Round Lake Library today, primarily through proceeds of the annual antiques and arts and crafts festivals.

The Library is chartered by the New York State Education Department Board of Regents to serve the village of Round Lake and the town of Malta.

It offers non-fiction, fiction and children books (including a distinct Victoriana and Parenting collection), audiobooks, videotapes and DVDs, musical recordings on CD, children computers, eAudiobooks, an updated medical reference section, Internet access, online Library Catalog and databases, Inter-Library Loan services, fax machine and copier, a book shop as well as meeting space for non-profit groups.
