Welcome to Tacony Library, a cherished cornerstone of the Philadelphia community located at 6742 Torresdale Avenue. As part of the Free Library of Philadelphia system, Tacony Library has a rich history dating back to the late 19th century. Originally rooted in the Keystone Scientific and Literary Association, founded in 1876, the library has evolved to become a vibrant community hub that caters to the diverse needs and interests of its patrons. Our library traces its origins to the visionary efforts of M. Louise Thomas, who dreamed of a space where people could immerse themselves in books and cultural activities. Over the years, Tacony Library has been a venue for engaging events and has hosted notable figures such as Susan B. Anthony and P.T. Barnum. Today, we continue this tradition by offering a variety of programs, including cooking classes, literacy games, and letter writing activities, specifically designed for homeschoolers in grades K-8.
