KEYSER - Hit hard by cutbacks and cancellations caused by the pandemic, the Piedmont Public Library has continued to work hard to offer as many services as possible for the residents of the small town.
“We had to cut down on our children’s programs,” director Paula Boggs said, noting that funding from one source alone was slashed from $12,400 to $6,491 this year due to COVID-cramped budget issues.
“We did have to cut back our hours; we operate on a shoestring budget and barely bake it year to year,” Boggs said.
