Hello out there Mountain Top Community!

We wanted to keep you informed about the summer ahead. After careful consideration we have decided to postpone our summer programming until early fall. We are also continuing to stay Closed for now. We are closely following the Federal, State, and County guidelines with their recommendations regarding re-opening. We will keep you informed and up to date as we know more.

We hope you are ok and staying positive.

eBooks for Kids!

The library has expanded services with a new digital collection website experience just for kids. The main MHLS Digital Download Collection now has a separate site to provide a safe and easy browsing experience for kids.

Libraries recognize the need to provide a safe environment for kids to browse library materials. Just as the children’s section of the physical library has its own place, the same experience is now available in the digital collection for kids eBooks and audiobooks. Browsing can be done by subject, reading level or interest level. Check out the Kid’s eReading Room.
