Simpson Library Capital Campaign

The Next Chapter for Simpson Library

We did it! With your help, we met our fundraising goal of $2,000,000!

More library program and meeting space and a permanent home for Friends of the Library Book Sales!

Joseph T. Simpson Public Library, the heart of the greater Mechanicsburg community for over 60 years, appreciates your support!

The Joseph T. Simpson Public Library Learning & Book Sale Center, an 8,600 square foot building just a few blocks away.

The successful $2 million campaign for a building renovation created additional programming and meeting room space and serves as a permanent home for the Friends of the Library book sales.
