"In 1977, Daisy "Dasa" Harris bequeathed her 1875 Victorian Italianate-Style house to the village of Otego, with the stipulation that the building be used as a library. Harris spent part of her life as a traveling companion to the well-to-do. The Harris house was ultimately unsuitable for library use because of its many small rooms. In 1980, an addition was attached to the house to serve as the library. "
