Altamont has had a Public Library since 1908--the first being started by Mrs. Mabel Jewell. The location changed from time to time, until it found a
permanent home in the Municipal Building in 1968. By the late 80's the library had outgrown it's home and a new location was found. In 1991 the library moved to the former
Torbeck building, also the one time location of Eckhardt's, on the corner of Washington and Third Streets.
The library offers computers for public use with a genealogical room, reading areas and a large children's area.
