Library

Our library is composed of more than 1,000 history books with dates of publication from as early as 1820. Several books in our collection are quite rare and can only be accessed from our location. The majority focus on local history, detailing the development of Cornwall and the United Counties of Stormont, Dundas, and Glengarry. We also host a significant collection of books on Canadian and American history, as well as on the history of England and the United Kingdom. Visitors are welcome to access our library by appointment or browse our catalog here.
