Even though our Jeffersonville branch is closed for renovations still, our Clarksville branch is open and the gardens are in full bloom! Such beauty!

But book drops are still open if you have a book due date coming up!

We’re so glad the weather cooperated enough for the Jeffersonville Township Public Library to use the Mobile Book Tricycle! Be on the lookout for it throughout the summer around town!

Today is the last day of the Jeffersonville Township Public Library ‘STEAM’ Break week as families are welcome to attend the Family STEAM Day from 11-12:30 for Greater Clark County Schools students. The goal is to keep kids’ brains working during their week off of school by introducing science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (STEAM) concepts.
