Welcome
Thank you for visiting the Martin County Public Library System webpage.
The Martin County Public Library and The Rufus Reed Public Library branch are committed
to providing easily accessible, user friendly and a safe environment for all our
patrons. Our goal is to maintain current technology and to provide materials and
services for our residents for personal enrichment, enjoyment, and educational needs.
The libraries have a special learning mission for our youth. We offer preschool
programs, elementary programs, outreach programs to our elementary schools, and
summer reading for ages 2-18. The libraries have a designated children’s area for
their enjoyment.
It's that time of the year again! Come join the fun at the library
with "Catch the Reading Bug" Summer Reading Program. Sessions are held every Tuesday
beginning June 10th at Martin County Public Library and every Thursday beginning
June 12th at Rufus Reed Public Library. There will be preformers, crafts, games,
lunch and other fun activities each week. Nearing the end of the program, we will
be having inflatables outside (bouncers, waterslides, velcro wall, etc.), so that
is something you definitely don't want to miss out on! We also will have a huge
pool party at the very end to conclude our summer and give out awards and prizes
to the winners of our contests! The best part- it's all FREE! Stop by the library
and sign up today! You can also sign up by calling us at (606) 298-7766. You won't
want to miss an awesome summer!
