Welcome to our NEW BLOG!

Adventures Beyond Words

Let’s begin with an introduction! We are Upper Moreland Free Public Library (UMFPL), and we provide knowledge and adventure beyond words. We offer nearly 70,000 physical items, plus downloadable books, magazines, audiobooks, streaming audio, video, and author talks, and a variety of unique items for you, our patron, to borrow for free.

We have story times, take and make crafts, book discussions, and plenty of other programs you can find on our events page. We connect you with information you need, from seasonal tax assistance, to help navigating your (and our) technology, to ESL and adult learner tutoring. We even host your state representatives at the library so you can get information and support from them.

As a key component in what makes our community great we want to share who we are and what we can do for you. In our blog, you’ll find insight into the inner workings of the library, as well as highlights that connect you with information, programs, events, and (of course) books. We want to show you that UMFPL has something for everyone in our community, and we’d like to help you get to know the staff you see when you visit the library.

What are the types of things we’ll share? Coming soon, we’ll offer staff spotlights (we were serious when we said we want you to get to know us!). We’ll introduce you to the services we provide and some how-to… information for using library services and resources. Have you always wondered “why” about anything at the library? Let us know and we will provide an explanation here!

We are here for you, in person at the library or virtually. We are excited to show you what we have to offer through these blog posts!

See you at the library!
