A Short History of PPVLS and the Centre Hall Area Branch Library

A group of local volunteers came together to establish The Centre Hall Library Association in April 1993 with the dream of building a public library in Centre Hall, Pennsylvania. After years of fundraising, they realized that dream in 1997 when the Centre Hall Area Branch Library was built and opened as a branch of the Centre County Library and Historical Museum. Over the years, the Centre Hall Library Association worked to pay off the library building mortgage early, and continued fundraising to assist the library with additional supplies.  In 2022, the Centre Hall Library Association changed its name to Partnership for Penns Valley Library Services (PPVLS), a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. PPVLS supports programs, supplies, large print books, DVDs, and extra little things that make the Centre Hall Area Branch Library special to the community. Now the much-loved library is running out of space! The library needs more room for children and adult programming, shelving for books, computer stations, storage and activities. PPVLS aims to support the Centre Hall Area Branch Library in its need for growth and to help bring more library services to all of Penns Valley.
