Lebanon County, Pennsylvania, has about 145,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). A police report belongs to the agency whose officer wrote it, so which office holds a report from Lebanon County depends on where the incident happened: the Lebanon County - Sheriff's Office for the unincorporated county, the agency that reports for the city inside a city. This guide names each agency, where its records page is and what the Right-to-Know Law requires of it.
This guide covers which agency, the sheriff's reports, the cities' reports, how many reports, what the law requires and common questions.

Which Agency Holds a Report from Lebanon County
A crime, incident or collision report belongs to the agency whose officer wrote it, and that agency releases it, not the court, the jail or the prosecutor.
In Lebanon County that is the Lebanon County - Sheriff's Office for the unincorporated county and for any city that contracts with it for police service, and the agency that reports for a city where the city has one of its own.
The FBI's list also places the Lebanon County State Police in Lebanon County; a report taken on a state highway by it comes from that agency's own records office.
The FBI's agency list also places three other agencies, one campus police department and three state agencies in Lebanon County, each with a records office of its own.
Reports from the Lebanon County - Sheriff's Office
Its reports come from its records unit. The office's page SearchSystems verified is its jail page, at lebanoncountypa.gov/departments/sheriffs-office/contacts/general-ma... (page title: Lebanon County | Sheriff's Office), which answered when SearchSystems opened it on September 23, 2026.
