Why do we need a bigger library? Because the current library was built over 25 years ago to serve 14,800 residents, and the population is expected to be over 25,000 in the 2020 census. We consider ourselves fortunate to be in an area that is vibrant and growing. New, larger libraries have been trending and local communities similar to ours have built new, modern libraries over the last ten years: Pittsford, Irondequoit, Henrietta, Chili, and Mendon. Library expansions have been seen at Wood Library in Canandaigua, Fairport, Livonia, Caledonia, and Greece.

Who uses a library anymore since we have the internet and ebooks? Libraries are now much more than just book repositories. They are the cultural and social centers of their communities. Local organizations and individuals use libraries for meetings, tutors teach their students, children and teens come to actively learn, and adults are offered a wide variety of educational, in-person instruction. The library has free wi-fi and public computers that people use for job searches and finding employment, among other uses.

Where would a new library go? The library board of directors has researched over twelve locations in the Village of Victor since 2017, working closely with an architectural firm (for space recommendations), a real estate expert, a fundraising consultant, and the Village of Victor government. The Victor Farmington Library is proposing the construction of a new library at 160 School Street, in the Village of Victor.

Did you consider renovating the existing building at 160 School Street? Yes. Our architects found fire and water damage. They determined that demolishing the building would be the most cost-effective option.

Did you look at vacant buildings in the area? We investigated both existing buildings and land available for sale. This is the first location that met all of the criteria at a reasonable cost.

How big is the new library going to be? An extensive space study completed by a professional recommends a new library should be more than twice the current size to adequately serve the public.

Will there be meetings and open houses regarding the new library? Yes, there will be multiple opportunities to attend informational sessions, and of course, the director is always available at the library.

What happens if the vote is unsuccessful? Due to the time and money already invested in considering a larger library, a no vote would mean staying in the current building for the foreseeable future. Unfortunately, the space constraints that keep us from offering more of what the community has asked for, are likely to worsen as the populations of Victor and Farmington continue to grow.

What services does the Victor Farmington Library currently offer? In addition to loaning books, DVDs, Blu-ray discs, and video games, the library provides:

-Programming for all ages including arts and crafts, book clubs, classes to help you stay fit, educational workshops, and storytimes

-Space for community meetings and tutoring

-Five public computers that can be used to apply for work, prepare your resume, join a webinar, do research, or take an online class

-Printing, copying, and faxing services

-Downloadable eBooks and audiobooks

-Online access to ancestry.com

-Materials for teachers and homeschoolers

-Newspapers, magazines, and local history materials

-Passes to local museums and state parks

-Concerts and other performances

This project costs $16 million. How can taxpayers justify that cost? When a large sum of money is distributed over the entire population, it becomes much more reasonable. Homeowners and local businesses without a PILOT (Payment In Lieu of Taxes) would pay an additional $55 for every $100k of assessed value PER YEAR for the new library. Additionally, the library continues to seek pledges, donations, and grants to help offset the costs of construction.

How do I get an absentee ballot? You can contact the Victor Central School District at 585-924-3252, x1402 to request an absentee ballot. Absentee ballots are only given to registered voters who meet one of the following criteria:

If the costs of the new library exceed the current projections, will there be another tax increase? No, the current estimate factors in inflation and increased construction costs for 2023 and 2024. This August, the library will receive a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) from the construction manager. If the GMP is more than expected, the library board is committed to making the difficult decisions about what features to cut. In this way, taxpayers can be confident the proposed increase is the total increase to build a larger, modern library.

Who is funding the Vote Yes for the New Library campaign? The Vote Yes campaign is organized and run by a group of volunteers committed to the proposed new library. This committee is funded through donations, and cannot legally be funded by the library board of trustees.

Not all the photos downloaded from iPhone are showing up in the "all photo" library. Even though they were downloaded at the same time. Half can be found in the "Imports" folder and the rest in the "all photo" library. These photos are from 2 years ago and these are just some that I have found. I have 11, 000 in the imports so I have no idea how many more didn't make to the main collection.

I have noticed too, that not all imported photos are showing in "All Photos" immediately. But usually the missing photos will appear in "All Photos", once Photos has finished to update the Photos Library and properly indexed the new Photos. I also noticed, that it will help to wait until the new photos are appearing in all Photos, before I try to work with them. Photos will be much more responsive, after the new import has appeared in All Photos.

Sometimes the new import will not appear in All Photos, where we are expecting it. This can happen, if the capture date is wrong. Then it will help to ctrl-click the photo in "Imports" and look for them with "Show in All Photos". Sometimes the photos will be shown in "All Photos" filed under a different Year than I would expect.
