Whitehall Library is Going for Gold
The Whitehall Public Library is proudly participating in the PA Forward Star Library Program as part of the Pennsylvania Library Association’s 21st Century Literacies Initiative. This initiative spotlights the critical role of public libraries in communities.
The Pennsylvania Library Association’s 21st Century Literacies Initiative, PA Forward, was conceived to give a voice to what the library community already knows, that with the right support, libraries are ideally positioned to become the community centers of information, technology, and learning that will fuel educational and economic opportunity for all of our citizens.
Library Director Paula Kelly is proud to state, “We’ve already earned our Silver Star, and we’re confident that we’ll officially be a Pennsylvania Gold Star Library by summer’s end.”
Here in Whitehall one only needs to consult our website, www.whitehallpubliclibrary.org, better yet, walk through our doors to experience it first-hand. The library regularly hosts programs for all ages to engage in life-long learning, including programs for new foreign residents who need English language support. There are technology classes, both in person an online, and regularly scheduled programs around financial and health literacy. Many of the programs happen right in the library’s Café. The collection now includes circulating tablets, e-readers, hot spots and even cake pans.
