​If you would like to sign up for any of these programs, you can call the library  at 302-328-1995, or stop by our reference desk.


As of Monday, March 16, all libraries in New Castle County will be closed to the public until further notice.

​During this time, all libraries in DE are closed to the public. However, many libraries, including ours, are doing virtual programming through Facebook Live events, Zoom meetings, and sharing videos. Each week, I will share what the New Castle Public Library has planned as well as links to other libraries' program information and how to access digital content. I welcome feedback and different ideas for programs; we are all learning as we go. 

Thank you for supporting our library. We miss our patrons and hope that you are all safe and healthy!
