The original library opened in 1871, and a second opened in 1919, but closed a few years later due to lack of volunteers & funding. By 1935, the third library was opened by the Huntingdon Valley Women's Club, with the collection consisting of donated books, and located in Yerkes Cleaners. Shortly thereafter, the library expanded - moving to a house located on Huntingdon Pike. In 1963 the library moved to the former Memorial Baptist Church building. In 1995 the library moved into the old Red Lion School, after an addition was added.
The library is a member of the Montgomery County Library and Information Network Consortium.
