The Sullivan County Public Library has five locations to serve the community. LIBRARY NEWS All branches of the Sullivan County Public Library will be closed for the Thanksgiving holiday Nov. 28-30.

FOR CHILDREN AND TEENS Preschool Storytime is for ages 2-5 to help build skills needed for entering school. Pre-K Storytime has picture book time along with activities or crafts that help children learn concepts and socialize with other children of the same age. Our themes are the same at each branch, so if you miss the storytime at your branch you can always visit another.
