The Community Library of the Shenango Valley strives to be a patron focused resource center, enhancing the lives of people of all ages and backgrounds by providing outstanding materials, programs, and technology in a safe, inviting environment.
This mission could not be realized without a staff of dedicated volunteers willing to share their time and talents with the community. Volunteers are an integral part of our team and without them; we would not be able to offer outstanding service to our patrons.
