Pottsville Free Public Library

Attention Moms & Dads, Grandparents & caregivers! The Pottsville Library is working hand in hand with Santa Claus this year! We have a very special mailbox to collect letters, and each child will receive a personalized letter from Santa in return! Letters are due by December 14th, as we all know Santa gets very busy this time of year!!

The Pottsville Free Public Library is happy to participate in this year's Holly Trail (virtual edition).

At this time the Pottsville Free Public Library is not planning on making any changes to the services and hours we currently offer. The Governor's announcement today (Thursday, Dec. 10) did not specifically mention libraries, so until further notice we will continue to be open for you.

Thank you to Hiroko Kerns for the generous donation to the Library of items from our Wish List!

Congratulations to Benjamin, age three, for reading 200 books towards 1000 Books Before Kindergarten! Kids who read 1000 books will have a book in honor of their achievement placed in the Children's Department collection. For information on participating in 1000 Books Before Kindergarten, email [email protected].

Come by the Library to pick up Winter Bingo cards. A single bingo can be used for a raffle ticket for the Library's 12+ Gifts of Christmas until 12/16. From 12/1/20 through1/27/21, a full card can be exchanged for a ticket for the separate Winter Reading Drawing.

Don't have a form? Pick one up at the Pottsville Library or at Mud & Maker, or print one from home (see pages in the comments section below).
