Bladen County Public Library is more than just a place to check out books—it's a vital hub for learning, creativity, and connection. With branches in Elizabethtown, Clarkton, and Bladenboro, the library offers Bladen County residents free access to books, digital resources, and internet services, helping to bridge the gap for those without access to these tools at home.
Copiers Plus and Kyocera recognize the importance of this work and are thrilled for the opportunity to support the Bladen County Public Library through our 40 Years of Caring: Sharing the Love Across NC campaign!
From early literacy programs for children to skill-building workshops for adults, the library serves people of all ages. It’s also a welcoming gathering space, hosting community events, workshops, and clubs that foster learning and togetherness.
In the words of nominator and life-long visitor Sandy Bridgers, “It’s a wonderful place with great staff, and they deserve all the help they can get. Over the past couple of years, they’ve made incredible efforts to improve their building and create programs for the public to enjoy. They always strive to do even more for the community. If I could, I would give them a million dollars.”
Bladen County Public Library offers a wide range of enriching events and activities, including:
Their recent initiative—collecting Valentine’s cards and stuffed animals for nursing home residents—was a beautiful example of how the library sparks kindness and connection beyond its walls.
Looking for a fun activity for the kids this summer? The library’s Summer Reading Program runs June 16–July 17 for ages 0–12. Parents can sign up by calling or visiting the library in person. It’s a fantastic way to keep kids engaged and inspired over the summer months!
The library uses donations to fund a number of things, including:
According to Bladen County Public Library’s Director, Sheila Nance, the $500 they’ll receive through our 40 Years of Caring campaign has an extra special purpose:
“We are humbled and thrilled to have been nominated and selected for this generous award. Our staff is passionate about sharing our love of reading with patrons of all ages, and we look forward to adding to our children’s book collection with this thoughtful donation.”
Every dollar helps create opportunities for learning, connection, and joy in the community.
The best way to support the library, says Nance, is to take advantage of their services. You might check out a book, use the computers, attend a program, or simply settle into a quiet corner to read, study, or get work done.
