Through grants, community donations and fundraising, Delmont Public Library officials raised more than $1 million in four years and, this week, they will welcome the public into a new library building.
The new library is 4,150 square feet with several “green” features, including solar paneling, LED lighting, geothermal heating and cooling, two charging stations out front for electric vehicles and a cistern that will collect stormwater from the roof to use for irrigation, landscaping and watering the library’s butterfly garden.
