Library
The Smyrna Public Library may be small, but it's mighty. The library continues to grow in book selections, programs, and technology, while still maintaining its historic charm.
The library is open to the public and located at its original location on the corner of South Street and South Main Street. There is handicapped and public parking at the back entrance and the side library parking lot. Additionally, a 24-hour book return box is located near the back door entrance for your convenience.
The main floor holds more than 22,000 circulating items, from books and magazines, to DVD's and CD's. The library also has fourteen public computers and wireless access.
Although books still bring more people to the library than anything else, computers are the second biggest draw, as well as the wireless accessibility. Children come to the library after school to use the computers for homework and online research.
We offer many free electronic resources through the Delaware Division of Libraries, some of which are eBooks, audio books and videos and digital magazines. Access the Delaware Catalog to borrow or place these items on hold and to manage your account. The Delaware Division of Libraries also offers free Ask-A-Librarian services. To access all of these free services, you need to have a current Delaware library card. If you do not have a Delaware library card, a free online library card is available through the Delaware Division of Libraries website. A Delaware library card or an online library card will allow access to all electronic media. Any patrons that are unfamiliar with the technology should not be afraid to ask our friendly and knowledgeable staff for assistance.
In addition to the internet-accessible computers, the library also has an AWE computer in the children's room, as well as a catalog search computer.
