The Chester County Library is proud to announce that it is the recipient of a grant in the amount of $6,060 from Southwest Electric’s Community for Change grant. This grant is being used to purchase a new shelf for the children’s section which will exclusively house leveled readers (I Can Read, Step Into Reading, etc.), the digitization of some of our TN room materials, updating our juvenile biography collection, and the purchase of prizes and program materials for our 2023 Summer Reading Program.
How to donate to the Building Fund
The library accepts cash or check donations that can be specified for use for the library building fund. With the recent news of our upcoming expansion, we appreciate any donations.
Donations of $100 or more will earn you a leaf on our tree plaque in the library. Donations of $1,000 or more will earn you a plaque to go on the wall in our library.
