History of Weirton, West Virginia by Javersak

If you haven't purchased a copy of the History of Weirton, West Virginia by David Javersak which the Historic Landmarks Commission had published in 1999, you may have difficulty finding it. The book is no longer available for sale at the Mary H. Weir Library or at the Weirton Area Museum and Cultural Center. Several years ago, the Historic Landmarks Commission divided the remaining stock between the library and the museum so that the books would be available for sale at a public location. However, both organization have now sold all of their remaining copies. If you missed getting a copy, you may want to check used booksellers.

The library does have copies of the book that are part of the library collection.  Because this item is a valuable piece of our local history collection, library owned copies may be viewed in the building or or  may be checked out with a cash deposit which is refunded when the book is returned.

We do still have copies of the Images of America Book, Rock Springs Park for sale at the library. We also have several books and photographic calendars put out by the Weirton Area Museum and Cultural Center that are still available.
