Library closing at 2 p.m. on Friday

Due to inclement weather, both the Jeffersonville and Clarksville locations of the Library will close at 2:00 p.m. on Friday, March 3rd. Both libraries will reopen on Saturday, March 4th at 9:00 a.m.

We apologize for the inconvenience and hope you all stay safe!

Winter Reading Club

Join us at both Jeffersonville Township Public Library locations for a winter of fun, enchantment, and reading. Our winter reading program, “An Enchanted Winter Read,” begins on December 19th and will end on January 31st. This year’s winter reading program is extra special because it is happening in conjunction with our participation in the SoIN Big Read program. This year we will be reading Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levine.

How It Works

Adults and kids have the same Winter Reading goals: read 4 books to complete the challenge and win some enchanted winter goodies!

Audiobooks and ebooks count as well as physical books, so be sure to check out what’s available on Hoopla and OverDrive/Libby to find your next read. Don’t forget that you can also still use our Curbside Hold Pickup to help save you time during the busy holiday season (and beyond)!

Both the Adult and Youth Winter Reading Clubs run from December 19, 2022 – January 31, 2023 on Beanstack.

Mike Harvey (1947-2023)

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Mike Harvey. Mr. Mike was an institution at our library, sharing his kind and generous spirit, his passion for lifelong learning, and his silly sense of humor with us for over 50 years. He touched the lives of generations of library patrons and will be dearly missed by all.

We invite you to come to either library location and share your favorite memories of Mr. Mike on the posters by the front entrance of both library buildings, as well as upstairs in the Youth Services Department at Jeffersonville. We would also love to hear your memories and stories online here or on our social media pages like Facebook and Instagram.

You can view Mike’s obituary and share condolences with his family on the Newcomer funeral home’s website here

Here is Mr. Mike talking about one of his favorite books, Hotel Bruce by Ryan T. Higgins:
