AboutThe Chester County Library System was organized in 1965 serving Chester County’s 760 Square miles, 15 boroughs, 57 townships, 1 city, 14 school districts and 498,886 residents (2010 census).
It is a federated system made up of 16 member libraries with 18 library facilities. It is overseen by a 7 member Board of Directors appointed by the Chester County Commissioners.
The Chester County Library, a county-owned institution with one branch, serves as the system headquarters and is also designated as the District Center for a state-defined library district congruent with the county borders. System member libraries maintain their own Boards of Trustees and in many cases receive direct funding from the municipalities in their service area.
The Executive Director is Joseph L. Sherwood.
