Inwood Library Rebuilds with Community Love | Pierre News

Inwood’s library took a brutal hit from recent storms, becoming the only building in town to suffer such damage — but the community rose up like never before. With power restored and books temporarily relocated to Bethlehem Lutheran Church, locals — families included — rallied to save the collection using dehumidifiers and tarps. Mayor Becca Bixler was moved by the outpouring of support, praising Inwood’s resilient spirit. While the original library won’t reopen until May 2027, a temporary setup may open in a week, with books available at nearby libraries in Rock Valley, Rock Rapids, and Larchwood. This moment proves how deeply the community values its books — and each other. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
