Description

The Centreville Regional Library opened on May 18, 1992. It is located at the corner of Machen Road and St. Germain Drive, just off Rt. 29. The 30,000-square-foot building houses over 130,000 items for all ages, including collections in Korean, Spanish and Vietnamese as well as materials for learning English.

Centreville opened on May 4, 1970 in a lower-level storefront at the Newgate shopping center. The area is known for its rich Civil War history as well as its dairy farms. The library's present site is on the grounds of the DeBell farm, one of the area's last dairy farms. The DeBell farmhouse was relocated off New Braddock Road behind the Centreville Methodist Church where it remains as a local historical landmark.
