Involved in many facets of county operations, much of our work happens 'behind the scenes'.  You're likely to see us at most large events in the county and during disaster response and recovery.  Our primary responsibilities include emergency planning and management, fire service and emergency medical services coordination, and training first responders. 

Welcome to the Cattaraugus County Historical Museum and Research Library website. The Museum & Library are county owned and operated, specializing in the history of Cattaraugus County, NY.

We invite you to take a look around the site and visit us in person in Machias, New York.
