to enlarge and renovate Harrisburg’s McCormick Riverfront Library and expand programs and services
for children and adults. The project includes connecting the adjacent Haldeman Haly House – the home
of our original benefactor – to McCormick Riverfront Library.

We’ve included a brochure about this once-in-a-lifetime project, and you can learn more by visiting
YourPlaceToBelong.org

And visit dcls.org to learn more about library services and the eight locations available to you.
We look forward to welcoming you as a member!

Sincerely,

Karen S. Cullings

The Library      McCormick Riverfront Library and Haldeman Haly
                              House Expansion and Renovation
                              “One of Harrisburg’s most significant adaptive reuse
                               projects in the past 25 years.”
                                             ~David Morrison, Historic Harrisburg Association

Please contact:               Why is this project critical for our community?
Karen Cullings                McCormick Riverfront at 101 Walnut Street and the adjacent Haldeman
Executive Director            Haley House are in downtown Harrisburg’s heart. Combining both
717.234.4961                  buildings will allow The Library to increase our ability to provide critical
                              services, from providing internet access for those looking for jobs to
YourPlacetoBelong.org         programs designed to help children learn and thrive.
                                                            In 2020, The Library’s eight locations served
                                                            more than 138,000 cardholders who borrowed
                                                            more than 600,000 items. Additionally, we
                                                            hosted more than 358,000 WiFi sessions, with
                                                            visitors spending 1.9 million minutes on our
                                                            public computers.
                                                            The need for our services continues to grow,
                                                            especially in Harrisburg, where 44 percent of
                                                            children live in households whose income falls
                                                            below the federally designated poverty level.

Just a few of the ways the project will help those in need
The added space will allow The Library to:

• Offer more than 3,400 square feet for a dedicated children’s and
  family area incorporating STREAM (Science, Technology, Reading,
  Engineering, Arts and Math) learning support.
• Create almost 800 square feet of flexible community meeting space.
• Expand space for community partnerships, developing ways to assist
  our most vulnerable residents.
• Provide expanded first-floor library space for ongoing partnerships
  as part of The Library’s role as second responder, such as the
  existing relationship with Dauphin County Human Services and
  Adams & Associates, a Job Corps company.
