Alphabetical Listing

The library was founded as a membership library in 1884, then became a free public library in 1905.  Both centennials were celebrated, in 1984 and 2005.

Iola is lucky in that the library board requested Lewis Henry Wishard to write a history of the library.  He did so, and this book preserves much library history that might otherwise have been lost.  The library has several copies of this volume, which he wrote in 1929, with some supplements up through 1934.

Mission
The mission of the Iola Public Library is to provide resources, services, and programs to meet the informational, educational and recreational needs and interests of the people of the community. The staff strives to give people what they want when they come to the library.

Vision
The Iola Public Library: A welcoming destination that inspires our community.

Core Values
The Iola Public Library embraces these values:

Serving the community – Service
Engaging with families, teens, and children – Engagement
Being a welcoming place for all – Destination
Supporting the needs of readers – Literacy

My name is Jonathan Adams, and I am a Kansas native. In 2016, my wife and I moved from Kansas City to Iola, her hometown. That is roughly the same time I joined Instagram and really started to get excited about the beauty of Kansas. I have loved exploring our new surroundings in Southeast Kansas over these past two years. This sense of wander has coincided with a newfound passion for photography. I?ve really relished sharing the artistic and natural nuances of Kansas landscapes with others. I appreciate the growing sense of community pride and love seeing people cherish the beauty of Kansas in their own backyards. It is my assertion that there is beauty everywhere, and it is our calling to take note and live lives of appreciation and gratitude. I want my photography to inspire that in some small way.

    The Piqua State Bank was organized in 1910 by L. C. Neimann. During that same year the Farmers State Bank was opened in Piqua by George Wille. In 1914, the Wille family purchased the Piqua State Bank and merged the two banks under the name of the Piqua State Bank. John Wille, George Willis's son, owned and managed the bank for the next 50 years.

    The Bank was eventually purchased by Galen L. (Jack) Curry following his retirement from the Army. The Curry family has owned and operated the bank to this day. The bank is now the only locally owned locally operated bank in Woodson and Allen counties. Several Curry family members are employed by the bank and the bank continues to grow and prosper.

    It is the mission of the Piqua State Bank to maintain the safety of the depositor's money, maximize profits for the stockholders, and have a positive impact on the community.
