February, 2019: News & New Books!
January was an amazing month for new books in the library! In addition to lots of new arrivals in our digital lending library, over one hundred new books were added to the library's bookshelves! Here is a small sampling of our new titles, many of which will be featured in upcoming booktalks and library displays!

A Hidden Gem: The Delaware County Library System's Museum Pass Program!
The Delaware County Library System's Museum Pass program makes it possible for library cardholders and their families to visit popular local museums, parks, and zoos for free! Library cardholders ages 18+ in good standing are invited to borrow a Museum Pass. Passes are available on a first come, first served, in-person basis, for a 3-day lending period (unfortunately they are not renewable). There is no fee unless passes are returned late, damaged, or lost. Most passes accommodate at least four people; for example, the National Constitution Center Pass covers two adults and up to four children. Participating museums include:
- Academy of Natural Sciences
- Brandywine Zoo
- Chanticleer Gardens
- Eastern State Penitentiary
- Elmwood Park Zoo
- Museum of the American Revolution
- Simeone Foundation Automotive Museum
