Hello Friends of the Columbia Public Library,
As the year draws to a close, we would like ask you to consider the Columbia Public Library in your annual giving. A gift to the Library will help us renovate, expand and redefine the library into a vibrant community hub for all who have a passion for lifelong learning, creativity and the sharing of knowledge. Our project will expand the library by 60%, provide greater online connectivity, new handicap accessibility, and enhance our space for our book and artwork collections.
As a valued champion of the Library, we thank you for past and future support. If you know of someone else who would be interested, please feel free to share the attached appeal letter with them. There are many ways to help the Library! To discuss how you can help, feel free to reach out to us atrgamby@columbia.lib.pa.us

Property owners and critics have said the meters are a “desecration” and are being installed without any input from property owners.
“If you have a historic property, you should have some say … as to what someone puts on your property,” said Columbia Mayor Leo Lutz, who is supporting an ordinance for the borough to join the “intergovernmental agreement.”
Dog owners could face fines and even jail time for tethering their pets for longer than half an hour in temperatures below 32 degrees (or above 90 degrees in the summer), according to a law that went into effect in August.
This is the post that’s hard to write. Due to our construction, the library must CLOSE altogether between January 2 and May 19. We will have Bookmobile service twice per month: on the second Tuesday (11 AM to 1 PM) in front of St. John’s Church and the fourth Saturday (9 AM to noon). Lisa and Ed Miller will man the Bookmobile. Computers will not be available but wi-fi is always available at McDonalds and Burger King. We are looking for another source of public PCs and I’ll let you know if one is available. If you have specific questions regarding holds, etc. please PRIVATE MESSAGE me your email and I will send you detailed directions. If the Bookmobile doesn’t work for you, the closest libraries are Mount Joy and Mountville. You may also stop by any time in December to get more info. Please do not ask questions via Facebook; call 717-684-2255 or email me (my email is on our website) I know this is a major inconvenience; but our payoff is a beautiful new library come June 2018!!
