Martin Library at The Art Institute of York - PA
in Springettsbury Township

Through a cooperative agreement between Martin Library, The Art Institute of York - Pennsylvania, and Springettsbury Township, library services are available to residents of the township, as well as the students and faculty of the Art Institute.

The Library provides 8 public computers, which have Internet access as well as Microsoft Office installed on them. We do not have wireless Internet access available to the public at this time.  For a fee, a color printer and copier are available for use.

The majority of our collection is available to be checked out by anyone with a York County Library card. The items appear in the online catalog and may be requested for pick up at your most convenient location.  You may also pick up and drop off items from other York County libraries at the Art Institute location.

NEW HOURS ADDED ON SATURDAYS
We are happy to announce an expansion of our hours to Saturdays. We will be open certain Saturdays throughout the year (running in coordination with the school's academic schedule). For this quarter, we will be open October 31st through December 12th (except for November 28th, due to the Thanksgiving holiday) on Saturdays from 9:00am - 1:00pm for students, staff, and the public.

Note that we are closed on Saturdays from December 19th through January 30th. Saturday hours will resume on February 6th through March 20th.

HOLIDAY CLOSURES & HOURS
The Library will be closed Thursday, Friday and Saturday, November 26th-28th for the Thanksgiving Holiday.

For Christmas and New Year's, the Library will be closed from Thursday, December 24th through January 2nd.

We will reopen on Monday, January 4th with our public hours: Noon-8pm through Thursday, January 7th and Noon-5pm on Friday, January 8th. During that week, the school is not having classes, so there may not be a staff member present before Noon.

If the school building is unlocked when the Library is closed, you may still place items in our drop box and they will be checked in when we return. If you have something that is due at another library, you may want to return it there to make sure it is checked in on time.
