Description
The Centre County Library opened October 25, 1939 and was the county's first public library. For 38 years the library was located at 203 N. Allegheny Street in the historic Miles-Humes House. In 1977 the library moved across the street to its present location at 200 N. Allegheny Street. The Miles-Humes House is now the Centre County Library Historical Museum and remains an integral part of the library operation. The Pennsylvania Room houses an extensive collection of published and manuscript items relating to local history and genealogy and also features three rooms of historical exhibits relating to Centre County. Library System Profile: The Centre County Library and Historical Museum is located in Bellefonte, Pennsylvania. We support three Branch Libraries located in Aaronsburg, Centre Hall, and Philipsburg, Pennsylvania. We also operate a Bookmobile that travels throughout Centre County. The Centre County Library is also the District Center for Centre, Clearfield, Mifflin, and Juniata Counties. These 16 libraries receive basic library support, collection, financial and consultation support services from the District Center. Funding for these services is provided by the State of Pennsylvania.
