St. Clairsville Public Library Assistant Director Sarah Stefanovski presents a newly donated telescope the library will soon be loaning out to patrons interested in stargazing.
The St. Clairsville Public Library is launching a new program to give patrons a closer look at the heavens.
Assistant Director Sarah Stefanovski is organizing the program.
“A few months back, we were reached out to by two gentlemen. They were interested in donating a telescope to us. It is actually a nationwide program called Library Telescope,” she said.
Dave Holden of the Oglebay Astronomy Club was the donor. The program provides an Orion StarBlast Astronomical Telescope for libraries to loan to patrons.
