We are proud to offer an array of programs for all ages. We strive to make this library a favorite place in Marple. Click on the link for details about our adults, tween/teens, and children’s programs.

Everyone needs a little peace and quiet from time to time. You can find that place to concentrate and/or study in Marple Library’s Quiet Room. Cell phone use not allowed. This special space has been furnished through the generosity of the Friends of Marple Library and Broomall Rotary Club.

If you need an item not held by a Delaware County library, you may ask us to try to find it in another library within the state or across the country. You will be notified when the item arrives. Items must be picked up within five days. A request can be made by phone or in person.

The Community Puzzle is open to everyone. All you have to do is stop by the puzzle and spend some time adding a few pieces. Enjoy the benefits of jigsaw puzzles (reduced anxiety, increased patience, boosted problem-solving skills, and enhanced brain functioning) while contributing to this joint effort.

You can request materials from any Delaware County library by placing a hold through your account or by visiting the Circulation desk. You will be notified by telephone or email when that item arrives. Requested items must be picked up within five days.

We offer free home delivery of library materials to township residents who are unable to visit the library due to Short- or Long-term illness, Non-driver status (Senior) and/or Physical Challenge.

Once a month a volunteer or staff member will deliver library items to the patron’s home. The following month those materials will be picked up and a new selection will be dropped off. Specific books may be requested by title, and assistance is offered in selecting books by category.

To enroll in the At-Home Delivery Service program, the patron must complete the At-Home Delivery Service survery so that we can better assist in material selection. The at-home delivery service is free. Overdue fines are not charged on homebound material; however, patrons are responsible for damaged or lost items. For more information about our At-Home Delivery Service contact Bridgette 484-427-8125.

We have NO RENTAL FEES to check out DVDs! Overdue fines do still apply though, so be sure to return them on time.

We offer 15 devices preloaded with a variety of titles. Kindles are available for three weeks to checkout and can also be renewed. You can now place a hold on a Kindle through your library account and pick it up at any Delaware County Library.

Our updated wireless network means access with no password required to log on – look for MarpleLBGuest on your device when you enter the library and be sure to disable any pop-up blocker to view and accept our access policy. Access extends to the parking lot and outside seating area.
