FRANK SARRIS PUBLIC LIBRARY
EDUCATION FOR ALL
A message from Peggy Tseng,
Library Director
2017 is upon us, and the Frank Sarris Public Library is looking
forward to a year full of exciting opportunities. The library is located at
the corner of North Jefferson Avenue and Murdock Street in the heart
of Canonsburg. Our operating hours are Monday through Thursday,
10 a.m. to 8 p.m.; Friday and Saturday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. In 2016, the
Library installed a new circulation desk and purchased furniture to
enhance a “community living room” experience for users. We have
Peggy Tseng,
created an all-inclusive, safe and friendly environment, and a unique
Library Director
forum for social networking, book clubs, art classes and many other
life-long learning opportunities for everyone.
If you have not seen our facility or have not come in lately, I invite you to come in to visit
us. If you would like to arrange for a tour of our facility, please call me at 724.745.1308 x2.
I wish you a healthy and prosperous 2017. See you at the Library.
