Mt Gretna Community Library

Mt Gretna Community Library Venture inside the Mt Gretna Community Library and you’ll find treaures for every type of reader, from current adult novels to a cheery children’s room.

We also host book discussions and children’s programs. Open summer daily and weekends in September. In the heart of town, you'll find the tiny Mt. Gretna Community Library. From the outside, it seems like any other Gretna gem, but venture inside and you'll find treasures for every type of reader. The walls are lined with current titles of varying genres for adults, plus a cheery children's room wi
