On behalf of the Worcester County Library Foundation, we thank everyone who donated on Giving Tuesday from the bottom of our hearts! The $2,000 raised will support the new Pocomoke Library Children’s Porch - a place where the library can hold outdoor programs and provide a space for children and families to read and play. Fundraising for the Pocomoke Library continues and online contributions can be made HERE. We can't wait to open the doors to the new Pocomoke Library.

Attention, patrons! We want to keep you informed about a change that will affect libraries across the country, including ours. One of our long-time book wholesalers, Baker & Taylor, will be closing by the end of the year.

Like many libraries, we've relied on Baker & Taylor to help us bring you the books and materials you love. Wholesalers allow us to get the most value from every dollar we spend, ensuring our shelves stay full for your enjoyment and learning.

Just in time for summer reading, Worcester County Library is now offering copies of BookPage at each library branch as well as a digital copy. BookPage is a great way to find out about new titles across all genres. The monthly publication includes author interviews and timely, seasonal books. Take a look to find your next read!

Worcester County Library is excited to announce new Seed Libraries available at the Berlin, Pocomoke, and Snow Hill branches. This service is part of the Cooking up Health: A Nourishing Neighbors Program, a robust diabetes prevention program developed by the Worcester County Health Department. A huge thank you to CareFirst Blue Cross Blue Shield for funding the Cooking up Health Project for our community.

The Seed Library is a fun – and free – way to try planting your very own garden.

Here’s how:
