The West Virginia Library Commission (WVLC) Is the official State Library agency of West Virginia located in Charleston, West Virginia.[1] It is overseen by a nine-member Library Commission appointed by the Governor.[2] WVLC administers federal and state funds to the state's 172 public libraries as well as maintains the Statewide Library Network.[3] Their Library Television Network Services produces television programming for state agencies and libraries, and produces local PSAs.[4]

History

The West Virginia legislature passed a bill in 1915 allowing cities and towns to levy taxes to create public libraries.[5] The West Virginia Library Association supported this move but saw only fourteen public libraries established in this method between 1917 and 1930.[5] The West Virginia Library Commission was created by the legislature in 1929 but not funded until 1941 after pressure from the State Federation of Women's Clubs.[5] After the Library Services Act was passed 1956, the Library Commission could receive and distribute federal funding for public libraries.[5]
