The Friends of the Delaware County District Library will hold the first of several Spring Bargain Book Fairs on April 12 and 13 in the garage at the Orange Branch, 7171 Gooding Blvd.
You’ve asked for it … the Delaware County District Library delivers!
You may have noticed a few changes and some new faces in the coffee shop at the Delaware (Main) Library, located at 84 East Winter Street.
I ran across an article the other day in The Rotarian magazine titled, The Truth About Fiction, and naturally I was intrigued.
The renovations at the Delaware County District Library’s Powell Branch are complete, and the transformation is dramatic and amazing! During the library’s levy campaign, we made a pledge to the community to upgrade the existing facilities, as well as to build the new Orange Branch. The renovations to the Powell Branch are a step in fulfilling our campaign promises.
Even though the unemployment rate in Delaware County is relatively low at 4.2-percent, we know there are still many job seekers in the community, and the Delaware County District Library is here to help.
In our continuing efforts to fulfill the campaign promises made in 2009, the Delaware County District Library is currently upgrading its Integrated Library System (ILS) to serve you better. You’re no doubt asking yourself, “What the heck is an ILS?” It is the software and hardware that allows us to combine the information about all of the books, DVDs and other library material with the circulation of those items.
One of the community programs that the Delaware County District Library has long been involved with is the “Great Decisions” program, a free discussion series developed in 1954 by the Foreign Policy Association.
