🦖Summer Reading is back for the Summer of 2026! Every Wednesday, starting June 10th through July 22nd, from 1:00-2:30 kids are invited to the Pierce library in Troy for a fun story, activity, and snack. We will be unearthing all sorts of cool things like worms, dinosaurs, fossils, and also celebrating America's 250th anniversary!

🪱We'll kick off on June 10 with WORMS! Mark your calendar and stay tuned for more information. We are looking forward to spending a fun and exciting summer with you!

📖👦A couple of our board members had the privilege of reading to the kiddos at WR Croman Elementary School during their annual Community Day. What a fun day it was as all of the classes of sweet kids cycled through. The kids loved the stories and we look forward to seeing their smiling faces at the library sometime soon. 😊

Looking for a place to recycle your old cell phones, MP3 players, iPods, tablets, digital cameras, batteries, chargers, Bluetooth accessories, and ink toner cartridges? Look no further than Pierce Library! Find this box back by Steve's desk.

The value of the devices will go back into Bradford Wyoming county literacy programs to continue to provide free and confidential instruction to the community.
