There will be fun prizes (including Amazon gift cards and iTunes cards) awarded at the library throughout the summer along with online awards. You can start any time after May 6, and the more you read, the more you earn! We've had a great time with the challenge the past five summers, and we hope you and your family will participate this year.
​Last year our group read 338,248 minutes and Pickford was ranked the NUMBER ONE LIBRARY IN THE UNITED STATES!  Our community goal is to read 350,000 minutes this summer.

 IMPORTANT NOTE:  Please don't register independently; in order to qualify for incentive prizes from the library you need to be registered by us to be part of our group.  Incidentally, incentive prizes are an important motivational part of our program, and we are very grateful for donations from the community.  We really appreciate your support!   For more information, contact Pickford Community Library Manager Ann Marie Smith at 906-647-1288 or amsmith@uproc.lib.mi.us. We hope you'll join in the fun this year!  

We got the Crossroads grant, AND we made the front page of the Sault News!"  

The Pickford Community Library is honored to announce that it is one of six Michigan organizations selected by the Michigan Humanities Council to host the Smithsonian’s Museum on Main Street "Crossroads: Change in Rural America” Exhibition from May 9 – June 21, 2020.

"Crossroads" offers small towns a chance to look at the changes that affected their fortunes over the past century and to creatively focus on new opportunities for growth and development.

Be on the lookout for more information on this website in the months to come!

This news also made it to the front page of the Sault Evening News on Saturday, January 20, 2019!  Our special thanks to John and Audrey McDonald for proviing a picture of the Pickford Community Library Building circa 1930.  At that time, it was the Pickford Grocery Store.  Here's a link to the article and photo:  Sault Evening News
