Starting Monday, Feb. 5, the Township of Upper St. Clair is opening the new third floor flex space and expanding library hours to remain open until 7 p.m. Monday through Thursday.

“We are excited to share our new space with the community,” said Library Director Chris Gmiter. “This space will allow us to expand our program offerings while providing patrons more flexibility as to how they enjoy our library and municipal complex. As the library continues to grow, expanding its footprint and hours are important to us. The flex space and study rooms will be put to good use and give us new and creative ways to serve Upper St. Clair residents and all other library patrons.”

The new flex space is located on the third floor of the library and is the latest improvement to the Municipal Building as part of the NextGen Renovation Project. The space features five separate study rooms and one larger meeting room. The study rooms have seating for four people while the meeting room can fit up to six.

The study rooms and meeting rooms will require reservation through the library’s LibCal website. To use the study rooms, visitors will need a valid Allegheny County library card. You can sign up for a library card at the USC Library.

The flex space will be used for many programs and events, featuring a lounge area plus additional tables and seating. Visitors are welcome to enjoy the space without reservation.
