Our Collection

We have over 7,500 items in our collection, spanning many genres, and taking many forms.  Fiction, non-fiction, large print, children’s and young adult books are joined by DVDs, audio books, Blu-Ray discs, print magazines, and a print copy of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.  Plus, since we are part of the Allegheny County Library Association, our patrons have access to the collections of 45 other libraries within Allegheny County, as well as from Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh and its many branches. Online access to magazines, periodicals, e-books, e-music, e-magazines, and much more is also available to our patrons.

Library Cards

An ACLA Library Card gives our patrons access to the entire 46-library system within Allegheny County, including the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh!  As always, library cards are FREE, and applying for one only takes a few minutes!
