The Piedmont Valley Library has become a partner library with the Black Hills Knowledge Network. We will be submitting articles of importance to the residents of the Piedmont Valley, such as the water project in Piedmont, the shared use path, ordinances and more. Also, we will be archiving historical documents, stories, photos and more! We'd love your help! If you have suggestions for content or would like to help with this project, give us a call at 718-3663 and ask for Megan Eggers. And don't forget to check the BHKN website regularly to be a very well-informed citizen of the Black Hills!
