CLOSED DUE TO SEVERE WINTER WEATHER

Due to winter storms, a state of emergency is currently in effect for the Morehead–Rowan County area. During this time, travel on roads should be limited to essential personnel so first responders, highway crews, etc. can maximize access to affected areas.

The library is CLOSED January 6–8 as a result. We will be open to the public Thursday, 1/9 from 12–5pm.

Please follow us on socials and check our events calendar regularly for updates.

If you are in need of emergency shelter, the Morehead Police Department at 309 W Main St will be acting as a warming center. Officials request that you try to reach this location between 10:45am–4pm during the day, or 7–9pm for night hours.
