Newtown Square Public Library – Books are just the beginning!

Newtown Square Public Library has an excellent collection of books – but it offers so much more!

Here are 5 Great Reasons To Visit Your Local Newtown Square Public Library!

#1) The people! Everyone who works here – from the Library Director, Arlene Caruso, to the Friends of the Library – are top shelf. The front desk volunteers are welcoming, technically savvy, and sensitive to your needs. There’s a great vibe at Newtown Square Library, and their goal is to connect with and serve the community.

#2) Programs and Activities! The Library hosts dozens of exciting, fun programs each year which support the community. Programs range from parties for preschoolers to job search workshops to retirement planning for seniors. Wordsmiths, Book Clubs, Financial Programs, Evenings with Artists and Musicians - all occur within the Library. And externally, they offer free Museum Passes all across the Delaware Valley!

#3) The Technology! The Delaware County Library System’s technology base was just upgraded, and the staff here adapted quickly. But beyond that, they welcome new tech. The Friends of Newtown Square Public Library recently purchased a state-of-the art, high-security wireless system for the library. If you’re looking for high speed, safe, free access for studying, working, job searching, or just surfing the internet – the library is your spot.

#4) The variety of the collection! The book, DVD, and online collection covers a wide spectrum of points of view, research, and always includes the latest popular titles.

#5) The Truth! Libraries house centuries of learning, information, and history. They are vital, unbiased defenders against misinformation. They act as a hub of free, valid data – and librarians truly understand the difference between fiction and non-fiction. They preserve the truth and help protect our country.

How can you help the Library?

There is always work that doesn’t get done in the library because of lack of funding, or lack of volunteers. Dollar for dollar, the allocation of money at this library is incomparable. Just one new red book cart was an exciting addition for Angela Hegadorn, our Children’s Librarian!

You can make an impact. Get involved, and join a great community network. We would love to see you!
