Osterhout Free Library's North Branch is Closed

Thank you all for your support and patience during the closing of the North Branch. The North Branch of the Osterhout Free Library is closed due to the damage done by the fire. The collection and furnishings have been put in storage until we can find a suitable location for the library. The North Branch has a rich history in the Parsons Section of Wilkes-Barre and it is the intention of the Board and staff of the Osterhout Free Library to bring the library back to Parsons as soon as possible. Please continue being patient and know that re-opening the library is our priority.
