The Book Department of the Upper St. Clair Women's Club collected $300 and 2,500 books to establish Upper St. Clair's first library in 1957. In July of 1967, the Women's club turned over control of the library to the Township, and the library became a public library, free to all Township residents. On April 1, 1968, the first paid staff members were hired.
The Commissioners allocated funds to renovate the "large front room" of the Township Building for the Library. In October 1968, three Upper St. Clair Boy Scout troops carried all the books from the old quarters to the new Upper St. Clair Township Library.
In 1985, the library officially became a department of the Township Municipal Government and in March 1987, the Township library moved into the new three-story addition combined with the remodeled "old" Library facility.
Today, the children's floor is located on the third floor, while the traditional library can be found on the second.
