Library Your Home Public Library, founded in 1917, serves the Village of Johnson City and the surrounding area.
The library building was originally the old Brigham homestead, erected by Elijah Brigham in 1850. The old farm house was of wooden construction but was later replaced by a much finer homestead, the foundations, walls and partitions were built using brick from the Brigham Brick Yard, situated just north of the library building. The newer homestead was erected in 1885 and it was this building, with its broad lawns and pleasant verandahs, that was chosen by Harry L. Johnson and the Endicott Johnson Corporation as the site of the present library.
In 1920 a large addition was built and the children's room, dining rooms, and kitchen were removed to the new wing of the building. The library was owned, and entirely supported, by the Endicott Johnson Corporation until September 1921 when it was incorporated.
In 1938 the library building was purchased by the Village of Johnson City.
