About Maxwell

Maxwell Memorial Library serves the Town of Camillus, New York on the western side of Onondaga County. The library is located on the corner of Genesee and Leroy streets near the center of the Village of Camillus. Though Maxwell Library was founded in 1918, our building dates from around 1868 and formerly housed a church.
