The Ann Potter Room, which is a large meeting place located in the basement of the library, is in the process of repair after professional mold remediation required the carpet and ceiling tiles be removed. The Library has been seeking funds to make the basement serviceable once again. Donations from the community are necessary to make it possiblefor the basement to be used for community events.
Several generous donations have been given and the work is nearly complete – just some cleanup and reorganizing to do! The room may be booked for events.

Check out the History of YOUR Peabody Library site with links to more information. How did the Peabody Library get in Peabody, Kansas? The Peabody Gazette-Bulletin from 1913 and 1914 help answer the question. See Articles from the Peabody newspaper.
More information is planned to be added in the future, so please come back again!
Memories and stories may be submitted.

Your Library really needs your help!
We are building a DVD collection, so if you received a DVD that you have watched and want a place to store it, donate it to your library. You can check it out any time you want to watch it again and other patrons will be able to enjoy the movie as well!
Thanks to the Young family for donating a large number of DVDs!
