April @ the Marybelle Hollowell Annex – Temporary Location for the Pamlico County Library

Please be aware that on April 1, 2025, we will close the Pamlico County Library, located at 603 Main Street, to begin moving to our new facility at 13896 NC-55, Alliance, NC 28509. During the move, we will offer limited services at the Marybelle Hollowell Annex Children’s Library, situated at 709 Main Street, Bayboro, NC 28515.

Temporary hours of operation for the MHA location are as follows:
Monday to Thursday: 9 AM - 3 PM
Friday: 9 AM - 6 PM
Saturday: 10 AM - 2 PM

Programs will be available on a limited basis. Laptops and iPads will be available for patron use. Library book holds, new books for browsing, regular library services such as puzzle and magazine exchanges, as well as faxing, printing and copying services, will continue to be offered via our temporary location.

The Book Tech Mobile is an excellent resource for accessing the Craven-Pamlico Regional Library. Our outreach team will provide services through the Book Tech Mobile on the first Friday of every month. The first stop will be at the Piglet in Oriental from 10 AM to 12 PM, followed by a second stop at the Arapahoe Free Will Baptist Church from 2 PM to 4 PM. For a complete schedule of the Book Tech Mobile's stops, check here.

“The new library is almost ready, and the moving preparations have begun! We will soon be in our new Pamlico County Library, providing you with the library services you know and love. We are committed to ensuring little to no service interruptions during this transition. Please be sure to visit us at our temporary location as we move. Our team will work hard to make the move happen efficiently so we can be in our new home as soon as possible. Please stay tuned for a soft opening date in our May announcement. Thank you so much for your support and enthusiasm. We’ve almost built the library!”
