Oil Creek Library District : ウィキペディア英語版 | Oil Creek Library District
The Oil Creek Library District is an administrative unit designated by the Pennsylvania Office of Commonwealth Libraries and charged with facilitating and enhancing public library service in Clarion, Venango, and Jefferson Counties. The District's offices are currently located at the Oil City Library, a public library serving approximately 11,000 people in the city and surrounding areas. The Oil City Library was built in 1911 with a $44,000 grant from Andrew Carnegie on land purchased for the project by the Belle Lettres Club, a local women's literary society. ==History== The Oil Creek Library District is the successor to the now defunct Clarion Library District. The District was created in May 1996. The first Administrator was Kay Ensle and the first District Consultant was Julie Schill. The District made considerable progress under Julie Schill's guidance. Emerging technologies were embraced and libraries entered into the digital age. In 2006, after several years of vacancy, the role of District Consultant was assumed by Daniel Parker. Since then there has been a revitalization of the District. New training and continuing education opportunities have been developed, new district services have been created and a clear strategic plan for future library development has been instituted. Under Mr. Parker's leadership, libraries in the District have further developed Teen/YA Programs, expanded their legislative advocacy, participated in the Gates Foundation Opportunity Online Grant, and have embraced new models of non-profit governance. In May 2008 Bruce George was appointed District Administrator and the District Center Library expanded its hours of operation.
