Community Library of the Shenango Valley

Like many organizations we are struggling with the devastating effects of the current pandemic and find ourselves in a fight for the very survival of the Stey-Nevant Public Library in Farrell, PA.  Without much needed funds we will be forced to close our doors within three months. At least one thousand children and adults use these programs and services on a monthly basis.

History

In 1932, the Farrell Library first opened on the 2nd floor of the Farrell Fire Station. The current building, on the corner of Roemer Blvd. & Beechwood Ave., was erected in 1951. Through our 88 years we have provided literacy services, been a place for learning, reading, and meeting. We have fostered cultural exchange and social dialogue all while reinforcing community ties. The Stey-Nevant Library, along with the city and area, have faced hard financial times before.  In 2016, faced with grim financial choices, we triumphed by becoming a branch of the Community Library of the Shenango Valley (CLSV).  Through this partnership, the library has evolved into a center of community activity and resources we are today.  We find ourselves in financial jeopardy.
