This summer we're starting Bexley Public Library's first-ever Virtual Book Club! The Adult Services team at BPL has chosen The Yellow House by Sarah Broom, a 2019 bestselling and award-winning memoir that tells a hundred years of her family and their relationship to home in a neglected area of one of America’s most mythologized cities: New Orleans. The Yellow House by Sarah Broom has unlimited availability on Libby and Hoopla. We're excited that Gramercy Books in Bexley is our bookseller partner; check them out at www.gramercybooksbexley.com if interested in purchasing a physical copy of the book.
Bexley Public Library was founded in 1924 and first housed in Bexley High School, now Montrose Elementary School. The present building opened in 1929 and was designed by architects O.C. Miller and R.R. Reeves who drew upon French and Italian architecture from the 17th century for the design.
The library is located at 2411 East Main Street, at the intersection of East Main Street and Cassady Avenue. Parking is available in our parking lot on Euclaire Avenue and in front of the library on Main Street. Main Street is a No Parking Tow Zone from 4:00-6:00 p.m. weekdays.
