How can I reserve the community room?
The best way to reserve the community room is to call ahead to check if the date you want is available. We will check our calendar and pencil in your name. Next, we will ask you to come into the library to fill out the paperwork and turn in the $50 cash or check deposit. You will keep a copy of the paperwork, which includes the rules for rental. If all of the rules are followed, your $50 deposit will be returned when you return the room key. See more information on our community room page.
Does Pierceton Public Library accept book donations?
Yes, we do take book donations. Your books will be evaluated to either go onto our shelves, be added to our book sales, or be sent to a donation center.
Does Pierceton Public Library charge late fees?
As of 2020, Pierceton Public Library decided not to charge late fees on patrons. This includes those borrowing our materials through Evergreen Indiana. However, if our patrons borrow from another Evergreen Indiana library that does charge late fees, they will be responsible for paying those fees. Our library’s policy for damaged or lost items is a replacement fine of $10 for books and $15 for audiobooks OR a donation of a new copy from the patron.
Does Pierceton Public Library accept card payments?
Unfortunately, we do not accept card payments at this time. We accept cash, coins, and checks made out to Pierceton Public Library.
Does Pierceton Public Library have any programs?
Our library hosts many programs throughout each year. Pierceton Library Friends sponsors the annual Summer Reading Program, where children come to read, craft, snack, learn, and socialize one day a week. Pierceton Library Friends also sponsor a Holiday Family Fun Night every year, around November/December. The library holds other festive events, such as pumpkin painting in the fall, cookie decorating for Valentine’s Day, and more.
