Freegal no longer available

Due to its high cost, the Jeffersonville Township Public Library no longer subscribes to Freegal.

However, if you are a Jeffersonville Township resident, you can still check out full music albums through Hoopla! If you aren’t a Township resident, check with your home library to see if Hoopla is available through them.

Announcing our new Seed Library!

We are starting a seed library! Available at both locations, visitors to the library may select one package of vegetable or flower seeds to take home and grow. Available items include everything from asparagus and asters to zinnias and zucchini. Starter garden packets contain multiple varieties appropriate for people in a variety of situations.

Donations of seeds and plant starts are accepted.
