SmithCon’s got character! Join us for a hands-on volunteer opportunity where you will assist librarians with pop culture games, crafts and photo ops for our younger patrons. Each teen will receive two hours of community service.
Smithtown Building Closed
Due to the storm that occurred during the early morning hours of August 19, which caused torrential flooding, our Smithtown Building suffered catastrophic damage to its lower level. Therefore, until further notice, our Smithtown Building will be closed while we continue to assess the damage and begin to rebuild. Our other three buildings remain open to assist our patrons.
