A Heartfelt Donation to the Pohnpei Public Library


Today, Pohnpei Public Library was blessed with a generous book donation brought in by Mr. Peter Shirkey. The donated books originally belonged to Jean and John Ranahan, and their collection will now continue to serve the community through our library.

We are truly grateful for this thoughtful contribution and for the opportunity to preserve and share these books with our readers. Donations like these help strengthen access to knowledge, learning, and literacy for everyone in Pohnpei.

Thank you, Mr. Peter Shirkey, Jean Ranahan, and John Ranahan, for your generosity and support of our library community. 📖✨
