Friends of the Library

By joining the Friends you can help to support library programs and services with your volunteer time and talents or a monetary donation. You can raise awareness of the library in the communities the library serves and advocate for library support. We would love to have the input of citizens who are patrons of each of the branch locations to determine each branch’s unique needs.

Government funding pays the majority, but not all, of the operating expenses for the library. Library services and programs are supplemented through the membership and fundraising efforts of the Friends group.

A Friends Board is elected from the membership and meets monthly.
