The mission of the Free Library of Philadelphia is to provide all segments of the population of Philadelphia a comprehensive collection of recorded knowledge, ideas, artistic expression, and information; to assure ease of access to these materials; and to provide programs to stimulate the awareness and use of these resources.
We have 54 locations throughout the city. Our Central Library is located at 1901 Vine Street.

Hello, Free Library of Philadelphia. I'm a new Harper Perennial author, reaching out to some of Harper Perennial’s book-loving friends.
BEING WRITTEN is my first novel, and it will be released on September 9. It’s the story of a man who knows he’s a minor character in a book and the lengths to which he’ll go to win a bigger part.
I’ve posted a one-minute video about BEING WRITTEN on my profile page. Please stop by, check it out, and say hello!
