Family and Local History Programs

Since the beginning of the pandemic, Jeffersonville Township Public Library has joined other organizations in offering more online programming to patrons stuck at home. We have curated a few of our favorite local resources on this page, including programs related regional history, family research, and fact-checking (because in this historic moment, we need to know what is really happening in our world).
