  • Reference and Research Materials

From the Delaware County Library System’s website (www.delcolibraries.org) you can access the library’s public catalog to search books and discover other library services that are available to you.

The Public Access Catalog is a listing of all the materials available at the Aston Public Library as well as those in other libraries that are members of the Delaware County Library System. If an item is not on the shelf, you may reserve it online or at the circulation desk. If the County does not own the item, you may request it on inter-library loan. You will be notified when it is available.

You can also search more than 50 reference databases from the library and from home, including A-Z, Gale (through Power Library) and Newsbank (containing many newspapers). To access this service from home, just click the link for the database and enter your library card number when prompted.
