The Boyertown Community Library is a 501(c)(3) organization. The profits from this fundraiser will be going towards the library's second floor repairs.

Second Floor Meeting Space Information:

In late January of 2025, after a thorough inspection by engineers, it was found that there is deflection/sagging due to fractured floor joists in the library's second floor meeting room. This issue needs to be addressed immediately and will come with large financial burdens. In order to regain structural stability, the cost is estimated to be about $35,000. The floor will be removed on the front section of the second floor of the library. This required the children's section on the first floor to also be closed briefly. We are saddened to temporarily close off parts of the library, but we are hopeful that this will be remedied as soon as possible. And we are asking for your help in getting us there.

Our Second Floor Meeting Area is an integral part of the library. You may have joined us for an event or program there yourself! The space allows us to:

offer children, teen and adult programming which have both educational and social components (without the second floor space our programming would become drastically more limited)
hold Community Events for all ages (this includes collaborations with local businesses and performers)
have Senior programming, including Senior Workout Mix (our senior programs aid in health and socialization)
have a space for large groups which allows us to serve a wider range of members in the community (this includes health initiatives, literacy programs, seminars, etc)

Our library is more than just a beautiful, historic building. The Boyertown Library is a place for community, resources and learning and we need your help to preserve it. We are asking for assistance with these unexpected costs and by supporting our library's critical repairs you are not only helping to ensure the safety of the building, you are also investing in the future of our community. We sincerely thank you for your support.
