Memorials and Endowments
Why not leave a legacy?  Donating to the Montgomery House Library is tax deductible and will be enjoyed by many for years to come.  When the library succeeds, the entire community succeeds. Please consider the library in your estate planning.  For more information, please contact Melissa Rowse at (570) 538-1381.

Today is: 

LIBRARY WILL BE CLOSED MONDAY, FEB. 15 FOR PRESIDENT'S DAY.

Non-Resident Fees & Access - Public libraries across the state had their budget cut by 20.1%.   In addition to less state funding, the Access program (which allowed patrons to use other libraries for free) was eliminated.  Beginning July 2010, the Montgomery House Library will be forced to charge a $15 non-resident fee. Families may use one library card at the cost of $15 for everyone.  The non-resident fee will help cover materials for those not living in our service area.  We apologize for any inconvenience or hardship this may cause you. 

Please know the library is dedicated to remaining open 45 hours per week and offering the same programs and services.
