Historic building - Built by the National Youth Administration
Served as the city library from 1937 -1984
****Owner is a licensed Arkansas real estate agent.

Short history of the Piggott Library Building:  

On June 16, 1937, a meeting was held at the office of Miss Ella Mowery. Atty. Arthur Sneed met with them to discuss the making of the deed of the Selma Lentz Morrison property where the library building was to be erected. The library board of directors were sworn in by Mayor Charles Kelly on June 25, 1937. They were Dr. J. E. McGuire, Mrs. W. T. Adams, Mrs. P.M. Pfeiffer, R. C. Tucker and Mrs. Lura Brown. Dr. McGuire appointed R. C. Tucker and Mrs. Karl Pfeiffer on the building committee. Forman over the construction was B. B. Cravens.

​The National Youth Administration furnished most of the labor and part of the material. Funds were raised by the residents in the amount of $1,636 with Mr. and Mrs. Paul M. Pfeiffer giving a matching gift of $818. It is thought the Pfeiffers also paid for lot, but the transaction was not recorded. The building cost was estimated at $4,000. Grand opening had to be held at the Baptist Church across the street as the crowd was too big for the library building.
Mrs. Brown served as librarian in the new facility until the spring of 1940. Following her resignation, Miss Ruth Gwin became librarian and served until 1965. Miss Gwin was vitally interested in young people. She organized the first Girl Scout troop here in the early 1940s with the girls meeting at the library.
