📖 About Brigham City Public Library
The Brigham City Public Library serves Brigham City and the surrounding Box Elder County communities along the Wasatch Front, just south of the Utah-Idaho border. Located at 26 East Forest Street — northeast of the historic old courthouse, between Main Street and 100 East — the library is easily walkable from Brigham City's downtown. It operates under the City of Brigham City and is governed by the Brigham City Library Board of Trustees, which meets monthly. The library is notably active: it partners with Box Elder County to host the Box Elder Literacy Department, offering multi-level English Language Learning (ELL) classes on a regular schedule. Programs span preschool and baby storytimes, the P/K Book Group for parents and young children, Early Readers Book Club, Pages & Paws reading sessions with a certified service dog named Farnham, a Humanities Book Group led by visiting scholars, and a writing group. An annual Peach Days Book Sale held in the library basement draws readers from across the region each September. The catalog runs on SirsiDynix Enterprise (accessed at brigham.ent.sirsi.net) and the library offers Libby/OverDrive alongside Pioneer, Utah's statewide digital library.
