Effective April 27, 2026

All patrons will be receiving new library cards!

• Once you receive your new card, you must have it to checkout materials and attend programming (a photo of the barcode is also acceptable).
• When our new cataloguing system is in place, we will not be able to look up anyone by name.
• You will eventually need to update your card information on CloudLibrary and Kanopy. If you experience issues, please call the library at 610-838-8381
• Your new card allows access to all libraries participating in the ACCESSPA program.
• The new system will link our catalog to other libraries in the area, allowing us to participate in resource sharing with them, as well as email and text receipts and notifications!

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask!

Thank you for being patient in this transition!
