Your support helped us thrive in 2024!
Indiana Free Library is a non-profit organization that relies on the generosity of community members to help us bridge the gap in funding we have each year. All of the contributions we receive enable us to continue to provide free, high-quality digital and print materials, programming, and services to the residents of our community. We continue to invest our resources into growing our collections for circulation to meet the ever-growing needs of our community. In addition to growing our collection of physical items in 2024, we hosted several popular programs, including the Barbie Party, monthly Taster’s Club luncheons, Friend-Speed Dating, the Kids Grow Gardening Club, and Primary Health Days with M.J. Perry.
We also provide our community members with resources that impact their basic literacy skills and empower residents to explore social, health, financial, and technological resources for free! Donations and contributions from our community partners make a positive impact right here in Indiana County and support your friends and neighbors. Thank you for joining us in our mission to serve and strengthen our community by supporting literacy and lifelong learning.
Indiana Borough supports the library with a dedicated library tax. All residents may use their library cards and materials free of charge. Many thanks to Indiana Borough for the support and maintenance of the library building.
White Township supervisors offer regular and annual support to keep the library thriving. White Township is the largest local supporter of the library and the majority of cardholders also come from White Township. We share our thanks for their unwavering support.
The Indiana Area School District (IASD) serves a population area of approximately 32,000 people at the county seat of Indiana County. It consists of four elementary schools and serves two secondary schools locally. Any student residing within the school district is entitled to a free library card to use all available resources at our library.
