If the weather so far this winter is any indication, it’s likely that we are in for a snowy few weeks! When the weather turns ugly, unexpected closures are likely to occur at the Delaware County District Library. We certainly do not want to inconvenience you in any way; however, for your safety and the safety of our staff, the library will always and immediately close when the Delaware County Sheriff issues a Level 2 or Level 3 snow emergency, and will remain closed until the level has been reduce or canceled.
Christmas 2012 is now history, with all its excitement, hustle and bustle and joy. I hope yours was wonderful.

All branches will resume their regular hours on Wednesday with several terrific programs scheduled.

One of the core beliefs of the Delaware County District Library is to be good stewards of the public funds entrusted to us, and to me that translates into forming partnerships and collaborations in our community, to save money and to maximize resources.
Thanksgiving is traditionally the time to take a few moments to reflect on that for which we are thankful. I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to the Delaware community for your continued, more-than-a-century long support of the library, support that began in 1855 with the first movement to build a library in Delaware. In 1897, a group of stalwart women took it upon themselves to start a library with 30 books.
