About Mid York Library Road Trip
The Mid York Library Road Trip begins by picking up a map at your first stop. A list of libraries and their locations can be found at mylibraryroadtrip.org. Use this map to plan your road trip to as many of our 45 Mid York Library System locations as you can visit. During your visit, have a library staff member stamp your map to document your trip. Each library is the beginning of your journey to a new community, feel free to explore local attractions, restaurants, parks and vendors. Throughout your road trip, you will have the opportunity to receive various prizes as you discover each of our libraries. Any person, team or family that is able to receive a stamp from all 45 locations will receive a VIP gold library card.

The system would later adopt the name of Mid York Library System. In 1963, the Mid York Library system grew to 36 member libraries and continued to grow to 38 members in 1964. In 1965, the Mid York Library System purchased a facility on Lincoln Avenue in Utica where the system is still located.
