📖 About Strongsville Branch
The Strongsville Branch is one of the branches of Cuyahoga County Public Library, serving the southwest-suburban city of Strongsville. Library service in the community traces back to 1881, when a collection of 400 books was housed in the Town Hall. The modern branch on Westwood Drive offers books, movies, music and downloadable media alongside meeting rooms, study rooms and Zoom rooms available for reservation. Its signature feature is the Kathleen Cochrane DePiero Recording Studio, a maker space where patrons can record music tracks, produce green-screen videos, record podcasts and make audiobook recordings at no charge. The Friends of the Strongsville Branch volunteer group supports its programs, and one Cuyahoga County Public Library card works here and across the county system.
