Herr Memorial Library

For 80 years, Herr Memorial Library in Mifflinburg has been a vibrant hub for families, fostering literacy and a love of lifelong learning. With over 24,000 items in our collection, there's something for everyone! Browse our DVDs, audiobooks, children’s discovery bags, family game boxes, STEM kits, graphic novels, and, of course, an extensive selection of books. There’s always something exciting to explore!

HOWEVER, TODAY'S LIBRARY IS ABOUT MORE THAN READING. HERR ALSO OFFERS A WIDE VARIETY OF PROGRAMS FOR ALL AGES, FROM INFANT TO ADULT.

CHILDREN'S PROGRAMS

• Storytime at the Herr Memorial Library helps teach both children and adults about early literacy. Through stories, crafts, and play, toddlers and preschoolers learn vocabulary, fine motor skills, and social skills.
• The Baby Move and Groove class allows infants and caregivers to bond.
• Elementary school children do crafts and STEM activities throughout the school year and gather in the park for stories and more during the summer.
• Students in grades 3 - 5 complete STEM projects in the Engineering Club.

"The library is a big part of our lives, and we look forward to our weekly visits. I love seeing the developmental progress that our daughter makes while attending storytime! We are blessed to have the Herr Memorial Library, a beautiful treasure, in our area." – Christa

TWEEN/TEEN PROGRAMS 

The library's “Teen Space” features computers, a pool table, large screens for video games and movies, and a study room. Weekly programming for tweens and teens includes trivia, games, and craft nights that help foster social connections in a safe environment. 

"I come to meet people and to have a fun place to go. I really like to play the games." - Gage, Teen Program Attendee
