Beckley Man Builds Vast Personal Library From Life’s Lessons
Beckley resident Burchell Pierce collects books by the thousands, keeping a floor to ceiling library at home and amassing volumes since age 14. He recalls being barred from a library as a Black boy, a moment that fueled his drive to own a library and learn. Pierce later served in the Army, studied at the University of Minnesota, worked as a researcher, shifted to real estate, and returned to Beckley ten years ago, convinced that racial tensions had eased.
