Construction of Library Building at Beaver and Allen

Schlow Centre Region Library shut down Feb. 2, leaving its home at 100 East Beaver Avenue in order to move to a temporary location - 118 South Fraser Street - former home of the State College Borough municipal building. The new library was built on Beaver and Allen on a larger piece of land and opened to the public in October 2005.

The library moved into the post office building in 1967.

Needing more space, an addition was built in 1986.

Library was located in temporary quarters at 118 South Fraser Street.

The new library building was designed by Hayes Large Architects.

Construction of the new building began in late July. Please check back for additional photos of the construction.
