That building is the headquarters for the Mohawk Valley Library Association, which includes Schenectady, Montgomery, Schoharie, and Fulton Counties. I believe it is a co-op of some sorts among the public libraries in these Mohawk Valley counties. The Schenectady County Library is the central library for the system, but I do not believe it is a county-owned property.
I received a call back from the attorney for the MVLA. Her name is Kathryn McCary. She was very nice but she also could not tell me much. I did ask her that if we needed an attorney if she would represent us too. She said that she couldn't because it would be a conflict of interest since she is representing the library.
I really don't know if this particular branch is actually owned by Schenectady County or is just an intergovernmental branch other than the county.
So I don't know anymore now than I did before.
