Who We Are

Through a cooperative agreement among 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.

What We Do

The Library provides 8 public computers, which have Internet access as well as Microsoft Office programs 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 Phone Number

Instead of going through the school's main number, you may now dial the Library directly at (717) 757-1070. The school's number has remained the same, so you may still call that number and ask for the Library.

If you are only returning items: You may place them in our book drop, inside the entrance doors to the right of the center of the building. Enter and go to the right of the stairs and ahead of you in the wall is a book drop into the Library.
