About The Library has a collection of over 21,135 books. Visit us at 114 Centre Avenue, Newtown, PA, 18940! Story Founded on August 9, 1760, the Newtown Library Company was granted incorporation by a Special Act of the Pennsylvania Legislature, approved March 27,1789. Until 1824 the collection of books journeyed from the homes of various librarians to the old Court House building. But when Issac Hicks donated land, the Company erected first library building to give the collection a more permenant home. In 1883, a new larger building was constructed at Court St. and Centre Ave across from the Half Moon Tavern. In 1912 the Company dedicated the present building. An expansion in 1979 provided additional stack rooms, a children’s area, librarian work space and ramps for the handicapped. Two public reading rooms are maintained where anyone may freely enjoy the many resources of Newtown’s unique educational institution.
