For a limited time, take advantage of our Book Bag Sale! Through the end of March we’ll be offering Book Sale bags for just $3 each (normally $5). Not sure how the sale works? Just ask for a bag at the front desk and fill it with books from our Book Sale shelves. Stop by any time that we’re open! Proceeds benefit Dormont Library.

We have preprited copies of the most common federal (IRS) and state tax forms on hand in the rack on the first floor. If you don’t see the form you need, please let us know and we can print copies of most forms for you. Library staff cannot tell you which forms you need if you do not know them; contact a licensed tax professional for tax questions.

We are grateful to the Balkovec famly for their contribution to the library, and we hope you’ll take a look and share John’s love for his hometown.
