Location

In the heart of the Village of Williamsville, in the middle of the village, we are between Cayuga Road and Ellicott Creek (just west of Mill Street). Facing the Library on Main Street, Amherst Town Hall (Municipal Building) is to our left and Williamsville Village Hall is to our right. The Library is situated in front of the entrance to Island Park, and is within walking distance from Glen Falls Park. 

There is parking behind the Library, accessible through Cayuga Drive, or the driveway between the Library and Town Hall.
