Marple Library will be closed March 14 through April 30 out of concern for the well-being of our community. The book drops are closed. Please keep all materials at home during this time. 
Due dates are extended until after the library re-opens and fines waived while the library is closed.
If we receive recommendations from local or state health officials that warrant a change to our plans, announcements will be posted on our website and social media, and outside sign.

Marple Library Earns PA Forward Gold Star: PA Forward is a statewide initiative under the PA Library Association (PaLA) that places the spotlight on Pennsylvania libraries and their important role in the community. By proving that we promote the five literacies that are the backbone of PA Forward (Basic, Information, Civic and Social, Health and Financial) we’ve earned the gold star.
Marple is the first library in Delco to reach this achievement! Picture with Commissioner Liaison Dan Leefson and Marple Library Director LaTanya Burno during the Marple Township Board of Commissioners meeting recognizing this achievement.
During our August 9th cele
bration we were honored with a Certificate of Recognition from the Office of Senator Kearney and a House of Representative Citation presented by State Representative Jennifer O’Mara. Congratulations to the amazing staff, Board of Directors, volunteers, donors and community partners who have made Marple Library a local favorite place.
