Mount Carmel Area Public Library is in the Pottsville Library District
We have a new online reading challenge for you to join!
We are using a new software package called Beanstack
https://pottsvillelibrary.beanstack.org
No Library card needed! It only takes about 3 minutes to register your entire family, and Beanstack sorts everyone into the correct program.
There is a mobile app which lets you scan ISBN numbers to input titles and authors if you want to keep track of which books you’ve read. You can also use the mobile app’s timer feature to automatically input your minutes.

Acknowledging the
significance of the pandemic the world is contending with, we are looking at the history of one of its most significant
predecessor: the Black Death, Bubonic Plague.
We encourage visitors to take out books related to the topic, to learn something interesting and appreciate the
significance of this moment in the world.
