Community
Since the library is mainly in the information business, we want to provide some about our very own community. There are a lot of organizations in town that deserve your support. They are all devoted to providing services, activities, and improvements to Frackville. Many of these are directed specifically to children and families, the backbone of any community. There is no doubt that most people lead very busy lives already. Second jobs, school programs, and family obligations certainly come first. But if you have a few hours in your schedule consider becoming a part of one of the organizations below. You can make Frackville an even better place to live!
SUPPORT FRACKVILLE BY HELPING OUT AT ONE OF THESE ORGANIZATIONS
THE FRACKVILLE RECREATION BOARD -this busy group provides lots of activities like the Easter Egg Hunt, Halloween Parade, Movies in the Park, Christmas Parade and more.
UPPER SCHUYLKILL REVITALIZATION -promotes and organizes state sponsored improvements for our downtown area, clean street programs, and building upgrades.
THE FRACKVILLE HISTORICAL SOCIETY -dedicated to preserving buildings, memorabilia, and public and private records of our town.
THE FRACKVILLE FREE PUBLIC LIBRARY -provides information through print materials, the internet, and educational programs.
For more information call the library at 874-3382 or use our contact page at the website.
PICTURING AMERICA
Thanks to a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities, the library now has a fantastic collection of posters depicting American history. These posters are beautifully laminated reproductions of paintings and photographs, illustrating famous American citizens, architecture, and events which remind us of our past. You'll be seeing these posters in our window and during our programs.
If you would like to use them for other school or civic programs, please contact the Library Director.
