Eligibility:
Our service area covers Greenville borough, Hempfield township and Sugar Grove township. Since these areas support us with annual contributions from tax revenue, residents are eligible for free library cards. According to state law, we must charge residents of all other communities whose governing bodies do not support us with contributions from tax dollars. The fee is $25 for one year, for a family or individual. We also offer a three-month summer card, lasting June through Labor Day, for the price of $10. Children entering first grade are eligible for their own library card!
Obtaining a card:
You must show proof of address (driver's license, recent bill, etc.) and provide a reference (an adult not residing with you) when you sign up for a library card. If you live outside our service area, cash or checks will be accepted. Checks can be made payable to: GREENVILLE AREA PUBLIC LIBRARY
FEE AREAS: What You Can Do
Lobby your township supervisors or borough council to make a yearly contribution to Greenville Area Public Library. This would ensure that all residents of your community would have free access to our books, videotapes, audiotapes, periodicals, programs and computer services.
