Millerton firefighters manage outflow from a pump they used to remove about six inches of standing water from the basement of the NorthEast-Millerton Library on Tuesday, Feb. 10.
The library will remain closed until water can be restored. Leo-Jameson said limited library services will return Wednesday, Feb. 11, in the book sale room in the library's annex building on Century Boulevard.

Leo-Jameson said readers can pick up requested books and make returns. Public computers may be available, if library staff can establish an internet connection.
Visitors will not be allowed to browse the library or enter the main building until water can be restored. It's unclear when that will be. Leo-Jameson said librarians can retrieve books from the library shelves if readers have a specific title in mind.
Leo-Jameson said nothing of value was damaged in the flooding. A crew from the Millerton Fire Department arrived on scene and shut off water to the building around 9:45 a.m.
Firefighters on scene said the leak sprung from a water pipe in the residential apartment located above the library. Leo-Jameson said the old pipes have been known to burst in the past due to poor insulation.
Millerton firefighters exit a rear door at 5873-5875 S. Elm St. in Millerton after responding to a carbon monoxide exposure call at 2 p.m. on Monday, Feb. 9. Millerton Fire Chief Keith Roger said a deep fryer running indoors and the propane furnace may have contributed to the high levels of carbon monoxide in the building.
Roger said the investigation was turned over to the Village of Millerton building inspector, who deemed the duplex apartment building an unsafe structure until the furnace can be inspected and approved.

Crews from the Millerton Fire Department, Amenia Fire Department, Empress EMS and the New York State Police responded to the call. The building was evacuated and ventilation of the dangerous gas had started when Amenia fire crews arrived on the scene around 2:45 p.m.
Carbon monoxide concentration reached as high as 180 parts per million on the second floor of the building, Roger said. Carbon monoxide exposure starts to become dangerous between 35 and 100 ppm, with concentrations of 200 ppm causing nausea, headaches and dizziness.
Roger said two people had already been transported to Sharon Hospital when first responders arrived. Crews discovered a third person showing signs of exposure during evacuation. No other injuries were reported.
