One of the most popular libraries in Bucks County will be receiving a large grant that will be used for important construction projects. Ed Doyle’s wrote about the grant for TAP Into Doylestown.

The Doylestown branch of the the Bucks County Free Library, located at 150 South Pine Street in Doylestown, has received a $539,660 grant, which will be used to improve the library’s main building.

The grant comes from Pennsylvania’s Keystone Grants for Public Library Facilities program, which is giving out $4.1 million in funding to 21 libraries throughout the state.

“Libraries are one of the cornerstones of our democracy,” Rep. Tim Brennan said in a statement.

“With school libraries under censorship pressure in the region, our local libraries take on even greater importance as resources for historical knowledge and accurate information.”
