Exciting news for students,, virtual learners and parents!
You can now access the library’s WIFI at THE Main Cup. We have strengthened and boosted our WiFi for the purpose of supporting virtual learners. If you are struggling with a poor internet connection, you can utilize services at the library or at The Main Cup! The signal is strongest on our lawn and front porch. We invite you to use these spaces to study and just ask that you practice social distancing and COVID guidelines while visiting us. We are so excited to partner with The Main Cup and give a big thanks to them for letting us utilize their space.

Introducing our newest project at CHCPL, our brand new Story Walk.  This is a permanent story walk located on the lower walking trail at Flat Runs Veteran Park.  It features a wonderful book, From Head To Toe by Eric Carle.  We encourage you to take your family out for stroll and enjoy a story.     This project was made possible by funding by the Kentucky Humanities and the National Endowment for the Humanities as part of the Coronavirus Aid Relief and Economic Security Act, as well as the Wm. Frank Lebus, Jr. Library Fund.

The Cynthiana-Harrison County Public Library is proud to support the Kentucky Library Association’s statement on racial inequality, as well as those made by the American Library Association and the Black Caucus of the American Library Association. Your library staff is committed to providing equal access to materials, information, and programming to all in Harrison County. Equality is an essential part of our library’s values, and libraries are essential in providing access to materials and information for everyone.

Because we are now living in historic times, we would like to encourage all Harrison County residents to contribute to a file we will create about living in Harrison County during the COVID-19 pandemic. We are interested in your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Write either on paper or electronically, whichever is your preference. You can contribute as much or as little as you wish. Once we know when the library will re-open, we will announce that we are taking contributions. After the library has an opportunity to curate the documents this file will be available to the public.
