Healthcare Navigator at the Library

Do you need help applying or renewing your health insurance? Do you have questions about your current health coverage?

 

A Navigator will be onsite at the library in September to help you and your family explore your health insurance options and enroll in coverage through the New York State of Health Marketplace (NYSOH). You may be able to enroll in free or low cost coverage, or get assistance that could lower the cost of your coverage.

Remembering Harry Waitzman

We were sad to hear of the passing of Harry Waitzman this week, a long-time resident of Rockland County.  It was about a year ago that he sat down with us and told us some stories from the old days about going to school in the English Church in New Hempstead, his father's fish store in Spring Valley, the War and the origins of important Jewish institutions in New City.  He was one of our best patrons, always curious and wanting to learn more, attending computer classes up until the last year of his life - a true life-long learner.  We'll miss you Harry.  Thanks for sharing your memories.
