Thanks to our amazing local representatives, hours are being restored at all of our locations! Click the button below to read the official press release below.

This would not be possible without the dedication of our Municipal and Town Councilors, Mayors David Kogon, Murray Scott, and Greg Henley, and the countless members of their staff. They have shown that Cumberland County deserves sustainable and affordable core library services in the region.

We are working diligently to restore hours at all of our locations, and will let everyone know when hours are back to normal.
