Board approves Little Library project; Rotary to maintain collection

City of Pierre Park and Recreation Board · August 20, 2026

Summary

The board approved a community Little Library to be built by Rotary and Pierre Interact Club, with Rotary responsible for maintenance and book supply; location options include Brandt's Pond and Mateer Park and staff will address irrigation concerns.

The Park and Recreation Board approved a proposal to install a Little Library in a city park after hearing a collaboration plan from Rotary and the Pierre Interact Club.

Bryan said Rotary will handle ongoing maintenance and supply books, and Abby Edwardson of the library supported placing books where children can access them easily. Board members weighed location options — Brandt's Pond and Mateer Park — and discussed irrigation and visibility considerations. After general support and a motion to proceed, the board seconded the motion and approved it.

Staff were assigned to coordinate final siting, signage directing users to the library and to address irrigation concerns for the chosen location.
