Prices are the same as the big sales. Look for the sale shelves at the front of the circulation desk. Ask if you have trouble locating them.

As you are clearing out the clutter in your house in preparation for the upcoming holiday season, you may come across books or DVDs you would like to donate to the library. We are very happy to have them!

We do not accept Reader’s Digest condensed books, encyclopedias, textbooks or VHS tapes. We also do not accept any items that have smoke, water or other damage or are musty, ripped or torn.

Check our website for our latest donation policies.

Early winter predictions forecast a mild winter, but we live in Pennsylvania, so we can count on some unpleasant weather conditions - at least as far as roads and sidewalks are concerned.

Remember, the library does not follow the school schedule. We list early and whole-day closings on WFMZ television and wfmz.com. Check those sources before you make a trip here.

There are no fines charged for days we close early or are closed for the entire day. Always think of your own and others’ safety.
