About Pember Library and Museum

The Pember pairs a public library with a natural history museum in one historic building on West Main Street in Granville. Its collection holds more than 7,000 items covering birds, mammals, reptiles, insects, sea life, rocks, minerals, fossils, and dried plant specimens, and most of it is on view. The site also oversees the Pember Nature Preserve, which hosts seasonal nature programs. The museum has periodic exhibitions and public events, and visitors should check the current schedule before going because hours are limited.
