On March 26, 2001, the George's Creek Library opened its doors.  Located in the city of Lonaconing, Maryland, the library features architectural reminders of the George's Creek area, including a reproduction of the Iron Furnace, used in the mid-1800's by the George's Creek Coal and Iron Company to make iron from coal.  The Major League Baseball Most Valuable Player trophy of former Lonaconing resident Lefty Grove will also be housed in a special showcase in the library meeting room.

 

The George's Creek Library will provide many resources and materials for it's patrons, such as books for adults and children, large print books, audio books on tape, and periodicals.  In addition, the library offers free internet access and regular children's programs.  A meeting room is available for use during regular hours of operation.
