They offer so many free programs like Music on the Patio, adult tap, yoga, watercolor classes, programs about health and about the history of the area. So many programs, and all free.

This is the library closest to my mother's house, and I've visited it often through the years…read more Somewhere in their archives they have me listed as a library card holder, though it's been a long time since I checked out a book here on my own account. My mother visits the library once a month and checks out any new audiobooks they might have. Thanks to her and a few other book-on-cd true believers, this small library has a sizable collection. I enjoy going with her to help her find books she might have missed, and to check out the community bulletin boards and Friends of the Library book sale shelves. This library is staffed largely with volunteers. They are generally happy to pause for a moment to help you find what you need, or to help you figure out any issues with your account. I've also asked them for help with local knowledge, and I'm guessing they are a wonderful resource for the families that vacation in the area. The library has a decent selection of children and adult books, as well as movies, audiobooks, and a bank of computers for Internet access. They also have an agreement with the Overdrive system, which gives you the ability to download ebooks directly to your digital device. The best part of a digital loan is that there are no late fees. When your loan period is over the book simply disappears. It's a great system! And all of this is housed in a modern, inviting building. Go visit your local library, and happy reading!

We are from California and went to Niagara Falls and with all the driving we desperately needed to sleep. We intended to rest for five minutes so we kept the truck running for the heater. Next thing you know a woman is at the driver's window asking us to turn the engine off because it was generating fumes. Two hours had passed with the truck running and all 5 of us sleeping! Oops! Well, this woman, who we believed worked for the library in some capacity, was the kindest and sweetest ever. She gave us a bag of animal cookies, chocolate, water, juice, and showed us where the bathrooms were. She didn't leave the truck til we assured her we were okay to drive. "God bless, we love you " she said. She really exemplified that love. She helped turn a rough nite of driving into a funny and completely unexpected experience. I will forever associate the North Pocono Library with this kindness and generosity. Plus they have a great community garden!!

It's just an absolutely amazing library and community center.

Hi and I am their Elevator Inspector and today February 8 , I went there to Inspect their Elevator…read more. I got there at 10:45 and noticed that they open at 12;00 so I figured that they must open before 12:00 and sure enough a women and younger man appeared and opened the door, I jumped at of my truck and introduced them as the Elevator Inspector and the women said I would have to wait until 1200. At that point I said the elevator is in the vestibule so I did not have to go inside. again she said no you have to wait, at that point the younger man looked at me as if to say sorry" she's the boss" I therefore I think she needs some additional training to better understand outside of her box and should have said by all means inspect our Elevator.

If you want a book or other item that the library doesn't have, they can obtain it from another library in the Luzerne County Library System or make a request through an inter-library loan. The library is comfortable and feels like home. If you don't have the money to buy books, this is the place to go. With a library card, they are free to borrow for one, two or three weeks, depending on the age and other people's requests for a particular book. I have been using the library for all of my life, and if you don't have the money, you can really describe it as the People's University.

I like the programs that the library offers, like the after school meal program for under privlidged kids that they hold 2 days a week. The materials selection is not as big as you would think, considering the massive size of the building, but I can understand, considering that the library had to be rebuilt a few years ago due to a major roof collapse during a bad snow and ice storm. I guess they are trying to rebuild their collection. There is a plenty of parking available in their parking lot, and they also sell coffee, tea, and snacks to help benefit the library.
